Happy birthday Mark-Anthony.
You may remember I wrote to you and other composers in 1998 as to what you thought of Sibelius, deliberately asking your then emerging generation of composers.
I expected either polite deferral (Boulez representing the older group) or hostile (none).
You said you wanted to progress from writing works 15 minutes long and was inspired by Sibelius’s ability in generating longer scores of interest to.you.
Thank you. Your contribution is published in the booklet The Forest’s mighty God (1998).
I wish you continued success in all you do.
