#composer

When I was 20, Shostakovich was my favorite composer. I still find his Fifth Symphony wonderful, with its outstanding themes and rhythms. That's the piece that made me want to be a classical composer. ↗

I don't use composers. I research music the way I research the photographs or the facts in my scripts. ↗
