There's a lot of interesting words, nomenclatures, in science.

Sometimes the word dictated the melody.

The orchestra's an amazing instrument, but I don't want to just arrange my songs for it. I think that might be kind of boring and a little bit overdramatic, perhaps. I'm still just having too much fun doing it my way, for the time being.

Most of the songs that I appreciate are lyrically vague.

Norman is a very up-close, personal, character drama and I'd like to do something more zoomed out, a little more pastoral, some sweeping epic. I'd like to try something different.

I think when I was pretty young I got really into the tone of my instrument and I remember just playing one note for an hour to just kind of feel the resonance of the violin.

I am, in some sense, a writer. Even though I kinda downplay the word thing, I do enjoy writing sometimes.
