Hi,
"I feel I'm in a transitional space at the moment," he says, "and I'd like to move towards abstract music, something just called Sextet, or String Quartet, or Symphony no 5. But at the same time, it's not something I can just put on like a suit of clothes. I came from a very honest place in the 1980s, writing pieces like For Your Eyes Only, and this abstract, spiritual music has to come from another very specific place. It's a process of simplifying, and I don't think I'm there yet. But when I am, I want to write fewer and fewer notes - so that there will just be a few notes on the page, but they will really be the right ones."
The part about his record collection taking over his kitchen has been floating around out there for years. A lot of the other quotes also are lifted from old interviews, I wonder if they spoke to him at all.
Good point. Thinkinas bout it, I'mn guessing they didn't, concidering Zorn's wellknown attitude to jounalists. Yea, weekend!! _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8. Get 2 months FREE*. http://join.msn.com/?page=features/featuredemail
