Composer's POV: 2010-09-26

Wednesday, September 29, 2010. As a composer, I hear (or maybe am subjected to) a lot of strange comments. For instance, after a long day in the studio of recording new music with an orchestra, a client of mine says, “you just whip this stuff out don’t you? 8221; I hear comments like this from composer friends, some funny and some completely off base even from people who should know better. Inspiration is unexplainable-I believe it is a combination of being God given and at the same time a lot of sweat a...

Composer's POV: Squirrels and Copyrights, My Copyrights!!!
http://composer-jdn.blogspot.com/2011/04/squirrels-and-copyrights-my-copyrights.html
Tuesday, April 12, 2011. I like to eat and I like good. So as a result, I planted a garden in our backyard with lots of healthy vegetables. It was all going rather nicely and we had. Started eating radishes. Until one morning I went out to look at the fruit of my labor and the leaves of a whole row of radishes was starting to disappear. After trying several things, I caught some squirrels nibbling on my plants. If they didn't need music for their business, they wouldn't use it. Leave your comments here:.

Composer's POV: Heroes & Inspiration
http://composer-jdn.blogspot.com/2010/10/heroes-inspiration.html
Thursday, October 7, 2010. We all have our heroes, people we look up to, aspire to be like, or even emulate aspects of their characters or careers. Heroes in the proper contexts can be healthy for our lives, careers and aspirations as long as they are in perspective and having the right kinds of heroes is important as well. They are really mentors-sometimes mentors from a distance. Passion for his work. His refusal to rely on past accomplishments. Again, heroes are important to all of us. They mentor us ...
