"I think you find your audience by not thinking about that very much. You're just doing your job and doing your work and not worrying about, let's say, being rejected or accepted. I've been writing music for 32 years and I've just kept plugging away at it. I just do it, and I put some effort into getting the pieces played; I send scores out, all that stuff. In New York I created my own band. That's a very good way to start to gain an audience...I thought, 'Let me just get my stuff out there,' you know. It's out there, it's out there and it got a little bit of notice and word of mouth occurs. " More interviews
