When you're on the tube reading a book and then your brain decides that Right Now is the time to write a Pié Jesu. #ComposerProblems #MastoMusic
@artsyhonker There was this wonderful interview with Philip Glass about composing. In the first 40 years or so of his career he composed music between 9 am and 1 pm every day. If ideas turned up at other times, he told them "go away, come back tomorrow". Over time, this became a kind of conditioning: ideas came at 9 am in the morning.
