he's from a classical background, starting at age three, broke away a bit at university and has been dipping in and out of that to various extents ever since. a slave to discipline and hard work, still practices six hours a day (aside from rehearsals and performances) and is a fairly prolific guy. their output is different, but i think in terms of how they creatively function, they'd get one another. you work until it's right and then you work a little more. talent's nothing without constantly honed skills, etc. loves friends who understand the mentality that what drives you supersedes all else.
