Interviews with musicians, composers and conductors
The ability to express one’s inner soul and communicate on a completely different level through the power of music is unparalleled in any other form of human communication, and having the ability and determination to achieve this is immensely rewarding.
Composition, for me, involves the combination of musical materials through analysis, intuition and chance – a subtle mixture of freedom and constraint.
I’m not a structured composer, and I never had any proper schooling in it. Instead I see it as an extension of my playing and a tool for developing my playing.
In my own experience I realized that being an artist was not a choice; it was who I was and who I am.
Keep going to see live music, there is nothing more inspiring even if sometimes it makes you realise what you still need to do. It’s important to have some inspirational reference points.
I love the process of actually creating a score.
