“I do hope some of my work has a long lifetime. A piece that works out well this year may work out very well in twenty years' time as well, but I'm very much thinking about what's the right piece now, at this moment.” ThinkingYearsWellsMayLongMomentsPiecesTwentiesLifetimeWork OutImmortalityLong Life Author:Judith Weir
“Walt had a seat-of-the-pants approach on what he wanted musically. We kind of 'read' the boss and had a very high batting average, but there were occasions when he felt we had just written the wrong piece for the situation he wanted. We invariably listened to what he wanted - he was very descriptive in what he wanted and we could read him. We'd go back to the drawing board and work out what he wanted. He was a great inspiration, but a tough taskmaster.” KindInspirationWantedFeltSituationPiecesWrittenApproachToughAverageWork OutDrawingOccasionsBoardsSeatsBossPantsWaltBatting Author:Richard Sherman
