Is there room in my heart for you to follow your heart?
Tori Amos

It's been a thrilling journey - I have had to really learn that an orchestra is an entity - it's a creature. I have been calling it the dragon and the conductor is the dragon tamer. And you just have to ... ride and don't let go and you will be fine.

I would love to compose something for dance before I kick the bucket, and I'm not closed-minded about the dance, or the dance company.
