    The greatest thing about this is the solo performance of "Let It Go" towards the end. It's a great song. This is a very gifted composer and I have enjoyed many of his creations. But the vocal is what it is. It's not Idina Menzel and the hit recording. On here, the song is the raw creation of the music and lyrics and a very average vocal performance. This shows a song in its most elementary form, that has since become a worldwide hit and a standard piece in the repertoire of female vocalists everywhere. It's a tribute to the creativity on display, with a minimal emphasis on performance. It's a great example of the essence of songwriting. First comes the song - music composition and lyrics. The song becomes itself with the ideal singers and musicians. This composer has been very fortunate to work with amazing performers that have been able to bring out the beauty of his music.

    Such a sweet talented person. He finds the emotional truth in all of his songs which is why I think his work is so popular.

    My favourite bit of this presentation was the story of Arion and the Dolphin and the influence of music on other people, "carrying (them) over their sea of troubles". Also liked how he talked about being self centered and realizing how other people's talents can contribute to ease that sea of trouble - that is Elder Price characterization right there!

      E is for EGOT, that's good enough for him.
      The whole Lopez family is talented. His brother Billy made Welcome to the Wayne (R.I.P in Pepperonis)

    Very strange. He begins by talking about how it is important for writers not to make themselves the centre of everything. But he then goes on for the rest of his speech to do excactly that. He doesn't talk about how music works and what is important in good music. He speaks only about himself. Count how many times he begins a sentence with "and then I...."

      I'm sure the purpose of the session was to talk about his songwriting experiences, rather than show his singing abilities :-) From that point of view, I appreciated it.
