The Minotaur
Hi there!
I'm The Minotaur - composer of sundry classically oriented stuff.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I've been composing stuff since I was 18 - most of it for teaching purposes, but some specifically with performance in mind.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes - Every Sunday at the church where I am Director of Music, I do quite a bit of cocktail piano work, and I also play keys with an AOR band.
Your musical influences
Musical influences! Hmm! JS Bach, Olivier Messiaen, John Tavener and Benjamin Britten amongst many others
What equipment do you use?
I do most of my writing with Finale. I then transfer to Sonar 3 for tracking - I have 3 Yamaha XG sound modules and a Roland JV1010 which collectively take the strain of my creations!
Anything else?
Not really - If I think of something I'll let you know!
