	What was your inspiration behind the piece?		<i>What was your inspiration behind the piece?</i><br>

	Some of my pieces have very a specific source of inspiration, possibly some issue I've been thinking about or something I've read, or maybe just a fleeting image or curious thought. 'The Whole Toy Laid Down" and my percussion concerto 'what clarity?' would be good examples of that type of inspiration.

	Other pieces do not have an inspiration in this sense, and I'd put Surface Tension in that category. The reason for writing Surface tension was more about the working out of musical ideas than of responding to an inspiration. The opening rhythmic motive in m1-2 had been in my mind for quite some time, and I just wanted to address it by writing a piece around it.

	What was your process of composition for the piece?		<i>What was your process of composition for the piece?</i><br>

	Some of my pieces are more "through composed" in that I just start composing based on the musical ideas I'm having, starting at the beginning and finishing at the end. In that case the form and structure, and also the musical ideas of the piece, evolve unconsciously as part of the composing process. 'Cold Pressed' would be a good example of that.

	Other pieces, such as Surface Tension, take a more objective approach. With Surface Tension I had a rhythmic motive that I wanted to work with, and I thought it'd be interesting to use it as the primary theme in a sonata form. So in this case my process of composition was methodical, and I came up with secondary and closing themes for the introduction, approached the middle of the piece as a developmental section, and brought back a recapitulation of the introduction at the end of the piece.

	What do you want a performer to portray? an audience member to experience?		<i>What do you want a performer to portray? an audience member to experience?</i><br>

	I want the performer to be very clear about the details of the music, especially the phrasing. What I mean is that the performer should be aware of the individual gestures and motives in the music down to the smallest practical level, and be able to articulate them clearly while performing. There are often a number of details that are overlooked. I want these details to be clear in the performer's mind, and to be made clear to the audience during the performance. Thus what I want the performer to portray is an accurate rendering of the music, and what I want the audience to experience is the music. Any additional experiences will be those that the music inspires in the performer and/or the listener.		I want the performer to be very clear about the details of the music, especially the phrasing.
