Great Music Does Not Just

In The Nineteenth Century The More Grandiose Word Inspiration Began To Replace The Word Idea In The Arts.

To Me, Mozart Is Our Shakespeare, The One Who Wrote The Most Dramatic, Psychologically Most Baffling Music. He Combined Ideas That No One Else Would Have Thought Of Putting Together.

Since Age Seven, I've Been Composing And Have Never Stopped Composing, Yet, The Creative Process Is As Elusive To Me As It Has Ever Been.

As I Sit Down And Start To Work, I Often Panic. I Stare At The Empty Piece Of Music Paper. How Can I Say That My Piece Will Be Ready For Performance Next January When I Do Not Have A Recipe For Making It Happen?

To Understand Mozart's Contradictory Qualities Would Indeed Be To Understand Genius.
