"I think that my musical language, and my attitude to contemporary music, shocks people who are interested in the future of contemporary music here as elsewhere...In my opinion, Kopernicus and Orion were disturbing works. I wrote them as a reaction against some contemporary music which reflects that composing today is the equivalent of inventing structures. It is crazy, structural frenzy, to think that this is the only way to create real works of art and to forbid all inspiration resulting from what I call musical emotion. In my case, a melody is often the base for a whole work. I compose the melody and sing it to myself all day until it develops itself and takes its own form. Sometimes it can suggest the larger form of the piece as the organization of its smallest parts. Some expressions of emotion are too subtle to be manipulated or interpreted by 'structuring' instruments like mathematical models. I have to feel close to my materials, I have to live it. Some of the parameters of my music--such as length and proportion--are very organized, but my approach is intuitive as well as organized.
