MusicThoughts

a quiet place to think about music

People are hearing a lot more context than music, so perhaps I accept that I am now primarily a context maker.

My art is not just what comes out of the end of my trumpet or appears on a record, but a larger experience which is intimately connected to who I appear to be, to my life and charisma.

The ’music’, the sonic bit, could end up being quite a small part of the whole experience.

Developing the context- the package, the delivery system, the buzz, the spin, the story - might itself become the art. Like perfume...
