Each composer has his own way of getting an idea for a composition. Whatever it is is really irrelevant as long as it works. Susie and I think of titles that we feel are different, sometimes even clever. The title we come up with then directs us to different ideas which we develop. Susie may suggest some effect that can be done on the harp from which I might develop a theme. Or, I may ask Susie if this or that can be done on the harp. Whatever she answers, yes, no, or maybe, we keep taking it a step further until before you know it, we have a finished composition…one we hope you will all like. We feel these works will stay around for a lot of future generation harpists like yourselves.
