Jovanni believes that so many Pinoys are naturally gifted in music. To those who aspire to be outstanding musicians someday, he advises, “Don’t give up! A career in music can be extremely rewarding. Music is something that lives with us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and how lucky are we to make this our occupation! However, to do this competitively takes emotional stamina (as well as mental and physical, of course). Patience is the most important virtue one must have. Like learning a new language, one must understand that it can’t be done overnight! It takes practice. Lots and lots of practice! But I think the most important piece of advice I can give is for the family and/or parents of the musician: A little support goes a long way. This is something I have been blessed with throughout my life and what I am most grateful for.” (www.asianjournal.com)
