I've been really fortunate to have Bridge Records interested in publishing my music for the past 25 years. Most of my music is available in their catalog.

I had been creating music on tape that was to be listened to as a recording, rather than through performance.

If the music has a logic of its own - as I think my music has - an open-minded listener will apprehend and understand.

I don't think there's something that you have to 'get' with my music. It tends toward the dramatic side rather than the narrative.

It's very interesting for me to listen to music with my wife. She's not a musician but she very often makes comments about pieces in ways that are similar to what I'm thinking.

I didn't want my music to be seen as examples of an electronic culture; I just wanted them to be thought of as pieces of music.

With repeated listenings, a piece eventually becomes its own being. I very often say to students that this is like meeting a person for the first time. When you first meet someone, you reference that person with others who are similar; but, as you get to know that person better, you begin to understand his unique qualities.
