"My operas and my theatre works are very formal pieces."

"When I was a kid, I wrote music - from the age of 11 until the age of 18."

"Minimalism now is a reaction to what came before. It's absolutely of its time. Music moved into the set theory thing, and moved out of it."

"My operas usually come from musical ideas rather than ideas about subject matter."

"I think there are influences that you open the door to, and influences that come under the door."

"I'm not a music lover in the sense that I look for something to have on. I've never had that attitude to music."

"Music is such a problem in the time it takes."

"In the end it doesn't matter what you do."

"This sounds horribly pretentious, but I like to think that if music hadn't existed, I could have invented it."

"I think music has gone through a period of something very severe, rather radical, rather the way painting did with cubism."
