My goal in music is to communicate a sense of optimism in our world - to project the image of a hero, not only as a character to be viewed, but also as a part of each of us, something to be experienced - our integrity, honesty, intelligence, ambition, the best within us - our brightest dreams. - I try to create a musical picture of what could be and express the conviction that it is possible.
