PERSONAL OPINION In my opinion Freddie Mercury was a complete artist not only because of his prodigious voice and his spectacular acting: in addition to singing, Mercury was a great composer and proof of this are the hits "Bohemian Rhapsody" (highly complex), " Somebody to love" and "Barcelona" (both absolutely exciting) or "We are the Champions" (an anthem), to name just a few of the songs he composed himself. In addition, he played the piano and the guitar. That said: all in one.

He studied at the Sant Peters boarding school, about 80 kilometers from Bombay (India). It was there that, on therecommendation of one of his teachers, Mercury began his piano lessons when he was only seven years old. He was part of the school choir and, in 1958, he formed a rock group with four other friends, The Hectics, which he kept until1962. That same year he finished his studies and moved back to Zanzibar. Later, the Bulsara family moved to England due to the climate of instability and insecurity in Zanzibar. Freddie and his familylanded in Middlesex in 1964.
