Composing music might not immediately enter the mind when thinking of an adventure, yet the journey of composing is truly remarkable. A blank score can be quite daunting. Where should I start? What notes should I press? How should I express myself? The vast realms of possibilities just beg to be explored--melodies, harmonies, and themes waiting to be brought to life. Should I transport the listeners to a quiet field, the highest mountain, or a peaceful lake? Does the music represent a thunderstorm or small drops of rain? Music is an adventure of the imagination.
