We’re cowards when we should be brave, liars when we should be truthful, weak when we should be stalwart. Then this notion enters our heads: we will never again be the man we wanted to be. https://t.co/C3sH2MhK3c

There is nothing equal to your favorite band releasing a new record. I’m obsessed @MumfordAndSons

There will be a day that you cross a threshold of music that speaks to you. You will stop apologizing for the feeling, and instead, dig in.

Note to all composers: write your scores in C. The usual octave transpositions are ok. I spent 6 weeks deciphering the chords in Elektra. After that I decided I’ll not put any conductor colleagues through that unnecessary ordeal with my own scores.
