Nicholas Maw and Richard Rodney Bennett
I'm not a composer who writes an enormous number of works and every so often comes up with a jewel. I want each piece to be made so that it will survive.
(NICHOLAS MAW)
I suppose my music is wildly avant-garde for some people, and old-hat and conservative for other people - who cares?
(RICHARD RODNEY BENNETT )
