To Understand Mozart's Contradictory Qualities Would Indeed

Personality Is Essential. It Is In Every Work Of Art. When Someone Walks On Stage For A Performance And Has Charisma, Everyone Is Convinced That He Has Personality. I Find That Charisma Is Merely A Form Of Showmanship. Movie Stars Usually Have It. A Politician Has To Have It.

Why Do We Pigeonhole And Label An Artist? It Is A Sure Way Of Missing The Important, The Contradictory, The Things That Make Him Or Her Unique.

As I Sit Down And Start To Work, I Often Panic. I Stare At The Empty Piece Of Music Paper. How Can I Say That My Piece Will Be Ready For Performance Next January When I Do Not Have A Recipe For Making It Happen?

Truth Implies Meaning.
