then eight eight o'clock when i was

eight

when i was there i started learning it

in school

and what did you do well cello is really

hard and demanding so

it takes a lot of patience many many

years of

learning and practicing until you reach

some level that you can play

well when did you decide that you want

to be

a very good child player you want to

make a living

yes so crucial years were around 14 15

where you have to really bring a

decision and luckily

at 14 is when i fall in love completely

with the cello

and from that moment on it's been an

obsession

that never ended

[Music]

uh 24 hours a day

no because when you are obsessed with

something that's all you think about all

day

so i practice or mentally or

physically or it's all counts as

practice

when did you started to play other

styles so

i know that when children start to play

travel

yes yeah when you start early you first

focus on classical repertoire for many

many many years and most of them

stay in classical repertoire forever

but i always had this desire to make

cello popular to make to bring masses to

the cello

to bring classical music to wider

audience

and this is where i started

experimenting and exploring so

i was around 25 when i decided to

just start doing something totally

different not just classical

you know i'm sure that you bring a child

with yourself because jello is like my

wife so basically i go with cello like a

honeymoon

you know and we do everything together

on the plane she has a special seat she

gets a

food she gets a champagne so it's always

two glasses

and she sleeps with me in the bed

yeah i mean every girl is jealous of a

cello actually

because that's my number one girlfriend

so

yeah and it's going to stay like this

forever

yeah are you sure let's see let's see

let's see if there is a someone who will

become number one for now cello has the

first position

and you bring a cello with you or you

have a cello

with your wife it's it's a fix

one cello actually i have different

kinds of cellos

one is acoustic wooden one is a carbon

made of carbon one is electric

all depends on the situation

she is she is my favorite

i love her she sings so well she

produces the most

incredible sounds and but you can't take

her

anywhere because she's sensitive you

know wood

it's very sensitive you can't play in

the water with the wooden cello you can

play on the rain because i have some

crazy ideas sometimes so

sometimes i need to replace my wife with

another one

what was your favorite idea well i

played

on the rain i play top of the mountains

i play in the snow i play under the

water in the pool

i have some crazy ideas and my main wife

wooden cello

cannot make all my wishes come true

so i have to sometimes find alternatives

carbon wife and electric wife

what is your craziest idea that you

haven't done yet oh my goodness

i don't think i should even do my

craziest ideas

because maybe this will be my last idea

we i wanted to fly in these balloons

play the cello or parachute that would

be too much

parachute or go to mount everest

himalaya no no this is just

thinking out

what i loud to play with your dreams in

my dreams

actually i played already with many

legends so all my dreams actually

in a way came true you know and

a lot of legends that i wanted to play

with are unfortunate unfortunately they

are now in the heavens so

elvis i wanted to meet elvis presley

he's one of my heroes so i will play

with him

one day in heaven i'm sure and what do

you think why is it important to

learn music for everyone not everyone is

going to be a musician of course

but i but in my opinion i think every

child

yes because it develops your

intelligence the

also gives you the well you can't see it

in my case but

[Laughter]

and also develops your taste for

beauty for good gives you a birthday

there are many many aspects that

learning an instrument for example

educates the

kids and where is your home

my home is world is my home actually

because me as a musician i love

traveling and spreading

music with people around the world so

actually i consider the whole

world my home and

what do you do now in budapest now i'm

talking to

you right now not right now these days

but my favorite is always to listen to

those romantic

ballads because i'm a romantic that's

what i want to say

a very romantic guy really yeah do you

have

girlfriends no no and

you're looking for one

no

[Laughter]

you don't have time

i don't think it's good to look for a

girlfriend it needs to happen

spontaneously all the best things in

life just

happen by itself if you're looking for

something if you're

forcing something it's it's not good it

needs to be

natural yeah when you're listening i

agree when you least expect it

yeah uh what are your plans for the

distant future

distance london manchester how do you

remember back these days wasn't it

because you were very young to be far

from home from your parents from your

friends

actually i'm alone since i'm 14 years

old

i've been traveling to first another

city in high school

then to london and all the other places

later on

and it was all because for education to

have a better teachers to you know

so it was not easy but it was worth

worthy yes it was

[Laughter]

you become very successful in a young

age in your 20s

how could you handle success and how did

you change things

actually yeah i mean i didn't really

change

i was always like this i mean no i mean

i was all my life focused on music on

cello

working so hard practicing had this

discipline and this is always

big part of me so no amount of success

can

change change when you are when you grew

up with such a strong

foundations and i was raised

and the basic elements yes how you were

the house i had the most amazing

parents and so there is no amount of

money or fame that can spoil me

you don't no i believe

we just met so i don't know you really

but he seems

to me very kind so

which performance are you most proud of

i think

the best performances are yet to come

really yes because the best is

in front of me because now you must be

proud of

i'm proud of everything so far your past

yes

but this was just a preparation for

what's coming next

yeah what is your goal now i want to

create like the the best show ever

like a huge gala concerts tours

tours where i will be playing all kinds

of music because

people know me for playing classical

music for playing this romantic ballads

for playing these

rock songs for playing these latino

dancing songs

and i think i should incorporate all

this into one huge show which will be

challenging because

there is a limit how long you can play

so i don't know i have i know hundreds

of thousands of songs so

how to make it all good in one hour

and a half or two hours let's see

do you have a dream started alone and

then always

uh one more musician came back oh that's

a good idea

wow that's another good thing i started

alone then

second song with guitar player yes third

song guitar and bass

fourth song piano comes in then drums

comes in then

that's cool strings come in then big

band comes in that the dancers coming

and then it's like a huge

party at the end yeah okay

and what about your music plans just a

few

more questions i mean one or two my plan

for the future

is to record as many albums as possible

to do a huge tour all over the world

big shows big gala concerts where i

would include

all types of music because people know

me for playing classical for

being this romantic guy for being this

crazy latino guy for being that drug guy

so i want to just put everything into

one big show

of a big spectacle huge huge arena show

all over the world

and let's see now i'm just collecting

ideas because

it's hard you know in my case where do

you start from because

hundreds of songs thousands of videos

and

how do you make all this into let's say

25 songs it's not easy yeah almost

impossible

it's almost impossible so i have this

difficulty of too much choice because

you're going to be

in the jury of a hungarian tv show

that's good

tell me something about this tell me

everything about this union

this is the first time i will be in jury

and it's very exciting to listen to

small kids playing classical music

playing those instruments

it's it's the future of music it's

now in them and so i'm here to support

to help them to tell them some advices

and

and it's really inspirational to see so

such a young

children creating something so special

and meaningful in this shallow world

full of some fake

influencers some celebrities you don't

even know why

why are they celebrities what are they

famous for and these children

are playing in instruments they're

studying the music they're

educating themselves a lot so they

deserve a platform they deserve to be

seen by
