"For pianists in my generation there were three very important role-models; being young, being contemporary with some outstanding piano figures, I had the opportunity to know such outstanding personalities, not only by their musical status, but as people. I knew quite well Sviatoslav Richter, Arturo Benedetti Michelangelli and Rudolf Serkin. I think I'm not the only one considering this when I say that there are three very special personalities, with a decisive role in reading piano repertoire by the poignancy of their options and their instrumental mastery that influenced an entire generation, as it was my case."
