Interviews with musicians, composers and conductors
‘Listen to anything and everything. And enjoy yourself.’
‘Making the work I want to make with collaborators I admire and cherish.’
‘Keep an open mind, be omnivorous, don’t be afraid of influences – have confidence that some kind of voice will emerge in you.’
‘My music reacts to what is happening in the world. Then life decides.’
‘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.’
