I've Always Regarded Nature As The Clothing

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.

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

It's Hard For Me To Think Of Others Because I'm Not Particularly In Sympathy With The Music Of This Century.
