I grew up in an era where an orchestra was like a treasure chest.

I went to study some orchestration stuff because I got so inspired working with all the orchestras.

I love working with an orchestra, but there are many ways to make music.

Orchestra had a little brass ensemble on two tracks as well, but the rest was me. I knew I couldn't continue in this direction, even if people liked it, because I can only duplicate myself.

Symphonic orchestras have almost become a glut in the market.

As a young pianist in Hollywood, I began orchestrating for others, and I just felt really comfortable doing that.

While there used to be one or two Pops orchestras, now there are all kinds of European orchestras that suddenly look upon this as a golden wand that can enable them to make money recording this music.

It was both exciting and frustrating to work with an orchestral group.

I wanted to be a composer before anything else. And my sister was listening to Led Zeppelin in the other room! When I heard that, it was a game-changer.

You have to change your mind with every orchestra because every orchestra has a different character.
