Taurek grew up in a highly musical family. His father teaches a range of instruments in their home province, while his younger sister T'Mika is an accomplished musician and conductor. | |||
From a FNS interview with T'Mika, 2389: | |||
''"While my private life is not open to discussion, I will allow that a musician's background will inevitably influence their art, even amongst my own people. Music by its definition expresses that which is not spoken, and silence can be as significant as sound. It has been said before that one does not need to experience emotion in order to convey it.'' [Puccini's ''Madama Butterfly''] ''is a highly emotional work, and my interpretation is informed both by my own history and that of the performers. I possess an understanding of the themes involved; my culture does not prevent me from doing them justice."'' | |||
