More quotes by Volker Bertelmann
I am inspired by the films of Pedro Almodóvar, as they are funny, sad, and extremely weird.
Volker Bertelmann
I am still happy to be close to the city, [to be] connected to the intellectual source in Ferndorf. In this area, [I feel] connected with nature and unimportant in a postitive way.
Volker Bertelmann
I still visit my village quite often, as my parents and one of my sisters live there, but also I feel the village is more of an isolated, unreal part of me.
Volker Bertelmann
The opportunity to use a computer is great when it is used as one component, or when someone is working on his or her own sounds and approaches. I think it actually has the same restrictions as using the piano or any other instrument in [a traditional] way.

I also remember riding home from a wonderful day with only my bathing shorts, losing the chain of my bicycle, having no hand breaks, and slipping high speed on a street covered with stones. I had to go to the hospital.

I can't say that electronic gear is restrictive. I think it is a challenge to play with electronic gear, and I regularly [perform] concerts with guys who are processing sound.
Volker Bertelmann
I was always interested in finding the elegance of each style and understanding why it influences so many people.
Volker Bertelmann
In a way, I pick out the films that have a same attitude as music that I like.

During Christmas time, on German television they show films with three or four episodes, and I quite like the feeling of waiting for the next episode.
Volker Bertelmann
I am a big fan of the Coen Brothers I like their kind of absurd, dark approach.
Volker Bertelmann
I think there is a big question in how much music a film needs - a lot of films are overloaded for my taste, so that the story can't carry its own weight.
Volker Bertelmann
I was bored to death and thinking more about the minibar and the after-show party than the performance.
Volker Bertelmann
I get a lot of emails where people are writing me their experiences, how they discovered my music, what they feel... they motivate me to carry on with what I am doing.
Volker Bertelmann
I was actually very surprised after using some plastic necklaces on the strings, as the sound was very bright. Sometimes I just put something inside that lies next to me.
Volker Bertelmann
I am surprising myself [at] each show, and the delivered piano often surprises me. Sometimes the piano is so old that I don't have to prepare it, and sometimes I have a concert grand!
Volker Bertelmann
My music is also one part of my inner process, and people also seem to connect with me on that - especially the ones who have the same questions for their own lives.
