They maintain Alma is an adult when it comes to music and a normal girl in other ways.She has always been home-schooled and is reading Philip Pullmans His Dark Materials when we meet.

Spend time with Alma and you are struck by how often she talks about Transylvanian，which is unrelated to the region in Romania. I must have heard the name somewhere，because I didnt know it was a real place until much later，she says.Transylvanian is my own land with its own language and there are beautiful composers there，named Antonin Yellow sink and Ashy and Shell and Flare”.
