‘I want to take audiences on an emotional and emotionally enriching journey.’
Interviews with musicians, composers and conductors
‘I want to take audiences on an emotional and emotionally enriching journey.’
‘I really hope that I can encourage and foster a love of music in my pupils…and anyone who hears or performs my music’
‘I think, for me, writing a piece well is always an aim. I like the idea of someone describing my work as “well-written”, whatever that means.’
‘Write the music you want to see in the world. Don’t write to please anyone else or to fit a “sound” you think is expected of you. Write what you want to write.’
‘The most important thing is to feel you are writing the best music you possibly can. But it’s nice to be busy (but not too busy), to be valued by your peers, and to be appreciated by your audience too.’
