I'm an interpreter of music.

I'm not an intellectual composer.

I don't really call myself a composer.

I am not so complicated or intelligent a composer, nor am I very interested in becoming so. I am much more happy doing what I know I can do than what I am not sure I could do.

I've always been a composer dependent on texts.

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

As a composer, I'm basically trying to represent myself through my music in an honest way.

Originally, I wanted to be a composer. I always tell people, 'I think of myself as a composer.'
