"FREDDIE MERCURY
Freddie was born on September 5, 1946. After leaving school Freddie became a full time Kensington poseur, then attended Ealing College
of Art in London where he obtained a diploma in art and design. Freddie's artistic imagination is reflected in the strong visual
content of Queen's stage act and extends to a very active involvement in the album sleeves. The original crest was designed by
Freddie. Due to his knowledge of art and love of beautiful things Freddie has managed to obtain one of the finest collections of
Japanese antique woodcuts and pottery.
Freddie's earliest musical influences were diverse: from Chopin to Hendrix, Beatles to Paganini. His resulting keyboard work has
become a distinctive and integral part of Queen's performance both on stage and in the recording studio."
