But synthesizer music has been accepted as emotional for long enough that it isn't a huge reach, conceptually, to think of a fake voice as 'emotional', especially since there's a human composing it.

Caroline Polachek

All of a sudden it hit me - if there was such a thing as composing music, there could be such a thing as composing motion. After all, there are melodic figures, why can't there be figures of motion?

Len Lye

Composing a piece of music is very feminine. It is sensitive, emotional, contemplative. By comparison, doing housework is positively masculine.

Barbara Kolb

Composing a melody or a western song is easier than composing a commercial number.

Mani Sharma

Composing for concert performance is a somewhat lonely occupation, but composing a film score is highly collaborative.

William P. Perry

I always tend to think that composing is not playing an instrument, composing is having something in your head that's steaming and it has to go out. It has to become sounds and be written. It's an emotion that you can't repress.

Alexandre Desplat

Since age seven, I've been composing and have never stopped composing, yet, the creative process is as elusive to me as it has ever been.

Lukas Foss

I used to do most of my composing at a little table in a cafe. Composing for 52 instruments, I had to figure out how to accommodate myself to the small table.

Krzysztof Penderecki

I was 7 years old when I began composing. I began composing, improvising at the piano, the usual story.

Samuel Barber

There's a thing about film composing and conducting in my family.

David Newman

Composing a concert is like composing a menu.... If you start with light pieces and play a 45-minute sonata after the interlude, it's like starting dinner with hors d'oeuvres and dessert and finishing with a Châteaubriand and vegetables.

Arthur Rubinstein

The last thing one discovers in composing a work is what to put first.

T. S. Eliot

But love is an emotional thing, and whatever is emotional is opposed to that true cold reason which I place above all things.

Arthur Conan Doyle

If you invent something, you're doing a creative act. It's like writing a novel or composing music. You put your heart and soul into it, and money. It's years of your life, it's your house remortgaged, huge emotional investment and financial investment.

James Dyson

I enjoy what I do. The only burden is the deadlines. Plus, composing background scores is a thankless job; it is not perceived as a significant thing.

Amit Trivedi

I could create music that sounded as strange as any electronic music, because you see, my opinion about electronic music is that the real composer is the guy who invented the instrument. Pressing buttons is not composing. Composing is about creating something.

Glenn Branca
