“Like many musicians, I can hear the weight in the sound. Sound is matter. We speak of the colour of an instrument, of transparency... We can demand more sombre or lighter colours, deeper playing and singing, heavier or lighter sound. And manipulating those means is like creating a painting.” MeanI CanMatterSpeakSoundPaintingDemandCreatingMusicianSingingWeightInstrumentsDeeperColourTransparencyLighters Author:Laurence Equilbey
“There's a spectrum of possibilities. You can underline the bass, or not at all. You can create something that is well-anchored or that is floating and never arriving. You can make a melodic line dominant or barely visible. The conducting gesture is akin to painting or sculpture.” WellsLinesPossibilityPaintingVisibleGesturesDominantFloatingSculptureSpectrumBassArrivingConducting Author:Laurence Equilbey
