My Dad died during the flu epidemic in 1918 when I was 4 years old. He left a lot of classical recordings behind that I began listening to at an early age, so he must have been a music lover. ↗

I enjoy listening to classical music and heavy metal. I play basketball and try to go diving at least once a year. I don't really have hobbies in the traditional sense... I engage in too many activities already through the actions of my characters. ↗

I'm very flower-like. I love classical music. I go to ballet and I cry. There's nothing so beautiful. ↗

I'm very classic and structural. I love clean lines and interesting, modern details. But I'm all about being streamlined - less is more. ↗

I started singing when I was five. I grew up the youngest of four kids who all studied classical piano, so you could say I've been listening to music ever since the moment of conception. ↗
