Alexander Goehr at 60
The last of three conversations between the composer and Stephen Plaistow.
"I do find it attractive to take on projects which will necessarily spread over a long time and which are in some sense collections. I feel comfortable with this because it removes me from the hurly-burly of beginning and ending pieces. There's no pleasure in beginning pieces and, heaven knows, there's no pleasure in ending them. Where one wants to be is in the middle."
('Sing. Ariel" Tuesday at 9.50pm)
