“…that trillo together with the joy of musical scales, flashes of jubilant themes. And then again triplets chased by octaves down below. But this time we must let everything resound in the whole world! This soul’s impulse! Let the lower register launch itself into “crescendo”, joining the whirl growing and gaining strenght from the most cheerful harmonies! Can you hear it?! Now, it’s calming down again… if it wasn’t for a bell’s ring. Everything else is a joyful ending.”
B. Mereu (about Finale from Klaviersonate Op. 53 “Waldstein” di L. Van Beethoven)

“People determine their scale of values through the daily experiences, that generate in our head the idea of our relation with the outside world and, in particular, with ourselves. I believe that everyone has a priority in his life, an expectation for his future and maybe, why not, the wish to become the best. Music for me has been something that led me beyond this aspiration, it let me leave aside the unequal struggle that leads us to forget about ourselves and about the reason why we are fighting.”
