“I am interested in musicology; the ancient treatises, the historical changes and evolution
of music over the millennia leading up to the current traditions and practices.
Art music, which is my focus, is essentially a very creative process and a clear
understanding of the musicological precepts will most certainly facilitate in the
confident making of inspired music with flights of artistic exploration while being
firmly grounded” |
