IN CONVERSATION WITH VIKTOR & ROLF

I think that it started with me getting my first mini rent-violin around the age of three, it was really good for my self-expression already, I think I smashed it in two back then… My mom recently sent me a video of me playing it actually!
I’m really in love with my cheese grater as a snare with loads of ‘attack’. Or once there was this parrot that sat next to me singing this song and I made a whole beat with it.
I am really really into baroque music and renaissance music. A lot of chord progressions I got from Bach, and some miserable singing inspiration I borrowed from Monteverdi.
Before having boyfriends, I always had girlfriends and they were my violin. You know, you never have one violin. First, you get a quarter of a violin, then a half, then 3/4th, and so on. They grow with you. I always had fights with them, they interested me for half an hour only and then I got bored or aggressive (I was a very wild child), but they were my loves, my muses, my heroines. I lost it a bit when having my first boyfriends, but now they’re back in my life, and the others will have to share.
Hard to answer, I think my music may sound a bit like a trip through a galaxy with all its colors.
Napping. I need my naps multiple times a day. I feel light, then, relieved. I count to three and I’m gone.
I dream about my dog giving birth to little chicks and me trying to catch them but I can’t, and they pop into popcorn. Really sad endings… And I dream of babies I have to carry but they’re too soapy so they slip out of my hands. I think I have some issues with control. Might study a bit on this, on myself.
Great question! Some flutes, like the duduk flute for example… but deformed.
