Writing is hard work. Generating stories that catch people's attention and holding it are very difficult.

It's really important to stay engaged and involved in the character.

I love pulling people into concert halls who might not otherwise go and getting their ears tuned.

I will never master this craft. Orchestras are very, very forthcoming with me.

I'd forgotten I'd done the anime called Spirited Away, the English version of a Japanese film.

I am not a long-run actor. I admire actors who can do that.

Kids now are so used to surround sound and the power in theater speakers, that the concert hall is a disappointment to them.
