MORE UNLOCKING SECRETS

Hoday,

I'd like to elaborate more on the previous two blogs. I don't intend to be disrespectful to the great composers of our past. I just want to be disrespectful to those who think their music, no matter what level of composition, is original. To think that music today is original is arrogant. So why should anyone continue to compose? Well, there is an outside chance that you can come up with something never done before. Anything can happen.


Let the young have their opportunity and watch them grow. Let the old continue to try. Keep trying to improve yourself in whatever it is that you love. But always remember the masters before you that enabled you to do what it is that you do. Study your history, and give the past its unbidden respect.

Later
