- When I'm creating at the piano, I tend to feel happy; but - the eternal dilemma - how can we be happy amid the unhappiness of other? I'd do everything I could to give everyone a moment of happiness. That's what's at the heart of my music.
- I've a certain fluency of invention, but is what I invent good or bad? I'm a dreadful judge. But that's served me well in film - good directors make suggestions. I don't see cinema work as 'second-class' - actually, it's benefited my development, psychological and musical.
- They reckon my music's just a bit of nostalgia plus lots of good humour and optimism? Well, that's exactly how I'd like to be remembered: with a bit of nostalgia and lots of optimism and good humour.
