‘Having the freedom to choose your own projects and the confidence to be able to give all of yourself to them.’
Luka Faulisi, violinist
Be very patient!
Russell Hepplewhite, composer
I write music that spans a large spectrum of styles – I love atonality; I love melodies; I love ultra-simple harmony – and I love being free to use all of these and many more – often within the same piece.
Stephen Montague, composer
My goal is to reach out to an audience and reel them in to a place they may never have been. Seduction is perhaps the best word
Rachel Portman OBE, composer
Follow your creative passion with determination; no creative endeavour is ever wasted.
Mark Lewis, composer
Try to make musical statements that are true to you. Don’t write or play to impress or show off.
