Instrumental music can be about anything. It's about a mood, and I usually title my instrumental songs long after they're written. Sometimes I figure out the titles when I'm doing the CD package, and that's very common for a lot of people who write instrumental music.

Music is a means of giving form to our inner feelings, without attaching them to events or objects in the world.

I dread naming pieces of music because being instrumental, most of the time the songs that I write are instrumental, I want the listener to make up their own story as to what it is and get the emotion pure without using logic.

Music embodies feeling without forcing it to contend and combine with thought, as it is forced in most arts and especially in the art of words.

Music is an art form. It is a way to wordlessly communicate.

With few exceptions, music has been for some centuries the art which has devoted itself not to the reproduction of natural phenomena, but rather to the expression of the artist's soul, in musical sound.

Music is an art form too. Sometimes other forms of art can be inspiring to the musician.

I can only think of music as something inherent in every human being - a birthright. Music coordinates mind, body and spirit.

The nature of music is mysterious and so much so that it generates strong emotions within us. It moves along passages that reach the most intimate areas of our psyche without being tried by prejudices or influences of any kind.

Instrumental music is increasingly marginalized and there's just no outlet, there's no venue for it, in terms of media.
