      @@morbidmanmusic Hello, certainly not a Mozart or Beethoven and I would never profess to be anything close but judging from your two comments on this video thread it seems you completely dismiss the point of my approach (which is totally fine with me), but as a courtesy to you I'm sending this link of my classic for you to listen to (hopefully with an open mind) so as to better understand where I'm coming from. In any case, thanks for watch and commenting. To me everyones opinion is valid.

      @@KipWingerTV this is great. And there's no point in comparing. I've noticed you were interested in Steve's approach to combining a rock band and an orchestra. Are you familiar with Van Dyke Parks's work in Silverchair's Diorama and Young Modern? Although not "composed for an orchestra + band" per se, rather than "orchestrally embellished", I believe it would inspire you. Lots of good stuff in there. Great conversation, cheers.

  • @jamiekirbitz586
    @jamiekirbitz586 Год назад +4

    It's so refreshing that two of my favorite rock musicians are this damn talented. But yet winger was chastised for years because of Beavis and butthead. What a frickin joke. Dudes got more talent than most.

    Devin Townsend - Guitar and Vocals
    Terry Bozzio - Drums

    Loved this, thanks for the interview.
    BTW, this is off topic but I met you once in the late 90s. I don't remember exactly which year, but I remember going into a book store of all places (Borders, I think) in Minnesota off the south loop just west of the Mall of America. The wife and I were walking about in the store and I hear someone singing a Winger tune while playing an acoustic guitar. I went around a few shelves and you were there playing with a group of people gathered around. That was pretty cool!

  • @jamfactory4119
    @jamfactory4119 Год назад +1

    Before ever having known that your piece was entitled Still Small Voice your description of requisitioning the universe for your needs reminded me of the first, and likely most successful, time that I performed that same task. It was for the purpose of confirming the existence of God to a friend and atheist. The confirmation was obtained in a dream under hypnopompic paralysis and yet a still small voice urged that I understand that my request was in vain and thusly only half fulfilled but to the extent that it served as proof to the skeptic. The way you describe it as a "download that sort of hits you" is an amazing confirmation of experience. Thank you for risking ridicule to share the process of obtaining enlightenment.

    @cathyberg6877 Год назад +8

    Really enjoyed the direction of your questions! Great concepts-the infinite creation of music, "seeing" the music, dreaming the tunes, putting your requests out to the universe, melody never being boring, stilling your mind in the evening to expand your universe in composing. Interesting how he originally "got" music & his description of realizing all the colors at his disposal. I just discovered an amazing poem by Robert Frost that I related it to immediately, "The Aim was Song". Beautiful, it's basically about the wind learning that it was always meant to be song. Great stuff, thank you!

    Fantastik conv. I've always enjoyed Steve's Philosophies on life, music and spirituality. Your angle on the interview is a refreshing twist on the normal convos we get. Putting the energy out and getting the energy back is a deep spiritual concept and its pretty cool to see two big musical geniuses talking about that. Great interviews. I've always been inspired by your musical journey and talent and by your peaceful thoughtful personality. Much different than the 'rocker' personae that MTV creates as an image. Very cool.

    Having been raised a classical musician (with a father who’s a classical composer),majored performance on oboe, cor-anglais and violin, now turned rock guitar player- I could listen to you both talk composition all day. Perhaps one of you will write an oboe concerto one day!! I can always hope😉
