Your own compositions are like your baby. It is the hardest and simultaneously the most beautiful thing to let them go and open them up to numerous interpretations.

Pawel Malinowski, composer
Making a score is for me almost always the last stage while working on the new piece. I start with capturing the ideas, which are sometimes far away from the music itself.
Greg Harradine, composer
When you get to know a particular musician, you can arrive at a wondrous place of trust and collaboration, where you are not afraid to challenge each other, or to debate certain musical decisions. One of my favourite things is asking musicians to comment on what I have written; often they suggest brilliant amendments which I would never have thought of myself.
John Carbon, composer
I’ve found it particularly exciting when performers make a work their own through interpretation or collaboration. I enjoy working to create music that suits a particular performer’s temperament and abilities.
Lillie Harris, composer
Fresh ideas that challenge the status quo quite often end up leaving important legacies.
