POST-CONCERT Q&A WITH THE ARTISTS
Q: Who or what inspired you to take up your instrument or the art of composition?
David: Guitar: Failure on the violin, Andres Segovia, Julian Bream, John Williams
Composition: The urge to create and say things that could not come out in words, Benjamin Britten, Igor Stravinsky, Charles Ives
Michael: I was most inspired by a curiosity for operatic singing. I was a saxophone player before I began singing and hit the ground running when I discovered I had a natural singing ability.
