I Think That Of My 21 Symphonies,

This Is Not To Say That The Scots Are Not Fine People, But They Were All Sort Of... Well, My Grandfather Was A Minister And Sort Of Protestant, And This Was Rather Depressing To Me.

To Me, Atonality Is Against Nature. There Is A Center To Everything That Exists. The Planets Have The Sun, The Earth, The Moon.

I Was Much More Interested In The Orchestra Than The Piano, But I Did Become Fairly Proficient As A Pianist And My Teachers Felt I Had Talent And Wanted Me To Become A Good Concert Pianist And Earn My Living That Way.

I Did All Kinds Of Things In Order To Earn A Living.

I Think That Of My 21 Symphonies, Each Has Its Own Place.
