I think of myself as an experimentalist even though much of my music sounds logical and normal, in a sense.

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 always a thrill for me to see new versions of my pieces on YouTube.

I never thought that I would write orchestra music, but in fact I did write a group of orchestra pieces.

I think you'll find a significant number of people who decide not to enter competitions because their music just won't fit in that world.
