S. J. V.
A long long time ago, when I met the thing well known as Music, I thought: "How would it be great to express the emotions with no word at all, to express feelings with no actions, thoughts in waves, trips into sounds".
I've never thought I could ever been a great musician, but I always thought I had (and I have) music in the inside: not such like something to talk with friends or relatives, but such like a dark shadow on my heart, teaching me how to run away from everyone, to find out myself back.
I've tried, through all these years, to know what's the meaning of music to me.
And maybe the meaning, in fact, it's just a research of myself in everything.
I can't own music, but you can be owned by music, like a slave.
In that case, no way escape.
By the way I consider myself lucky, in this cage."
