I Feel Very Free And Very Happy

The Act Of Conducting In Itself, Of Waving My Arms In The Air And Being In Charge, I Didn't Miss. I Missed The Sensual Pleasure Of Being In Contact With Music.

I Think If You Would Like To Describe Composing As An Act With One Word, "slow" Would Be The Word.

There Will Have To Be Times When I'm Not Conducting Because I'm Composing. I Haven't Solved That Problem, And Perhaps I Never Will.

I Don't Believe In An Annual Dose Of Film Music For The Sake Of It Being Film Music. If We Program Film Music, It Will Be Because There Is A Real Artistic Reason For Doing So.

Our Industry [classic Music] Has Kind Of Retarded Into This Kind Of Endless Cover-producing Thing, And It's A Pity.
