*ANA- my bestfriend and my greatest support.
*BAKLAVA- (turkish cake) my favorite cake- they're killing me with those in turkey.
*CHOPIN- there will always be a place for him in my concerts.
*DIOR- definitely my favorite designer. Recently, it gave me great joy when he became my sponsor in Paris.
*EVIAN- a drink which can be seen in my hand most often.
*FAZIOLI- the best pianos in the world.
*GOSPODAR PRSTENOVA'- (Lord of the Rings) when I first read it, 8 years ago, it became my favorite book. Since then I waited anxiously for someone to get an idea of making a movie based on it.
*HOROWITZ- the king among piano players.
*ISSEY MIYAKE- my favorite perfume. It's unusual and different from the other perfumes.
*JEFF MILLS- one of my favorite DJ's.
*KLAVIR- (piano)no need to explain.
*LONDON- it's a crazy city. The best clubs, crazy people, crazy street fashion.
*MORE- (sea) i'm completely addicted to it. Wherever I travel, I bother people to take me to the beach.
*NIGHT- i'm nocturnal. I function better at night and I would be the happiest if I could completely switch night for day.
*ODMOR U ŠIBENIKU- (vacation in Šibenik). Sometimes I need it so much that i'm ready to come here, even just for 2 days, which my manager in London cannot understand.
*PROKOFIEV- my favorite composer. Each of his pieces is a special experience, from technique to interpretation.
*ROSTROPOVICH- the cello player. I find him the greatest living classical musician.
*STEINWAY- the second best piano in the world.
*THAILAND- the food is amazing there, people are great, and the beaches are fabulous.
*UMEK- he's a DJ who makes the best party atmosphere.
*VINO- (wine). While I was living in Paris, I drank only the French wines, and now I most often drink those from Chile.
*ZOOK- probably the best club in South-East Asia. Complete insanity :)

Played a sensational sell-out crossover concert in Taiwan at the Maioli Outdoor Stadium on 20th March 2009, performing to a crowd of 31,000. We gave an electrifying performance and got an ecstatic reception form the audience, which included many representatives from the media. People were of the general opinion that this was one of the best concerts ever in Taiwan.
