What made you start playing an instrument?	My older sister was learning piano at a piano and violin school. One day, when I accompanied her to her lesson, the violin teacher was also there and asked me, "Why don't you try playing the violin?" I wanted to do something different from my sister, so I chose the violin.
What is important in a performance	Open your ears.
One of my favorite songs	Tchaikovsky: Violin Concerto When I was little, I dreamed of being able to play such wonderful songs.
