KIP WINGER On Composing Classical Music - "From What I Can Tell Everyone Is Really Into It"
January 9, 2010, 14 years ago
WINGER frontman Kip Winger discusses his first composition for a symphony, Ghosts, in a new interview with Noisecreep.com. An excerpt from the story is available below:
"The close-minded people won't get it and they won't care," he muses. "From what I can tell, everyone is really into it. If you're open to emotional music, then you can listen to my classical music and be moved by it in some way. You can't underestimate the audience. I think it's bulls--- when people are like, 'Oh, they won't get it.' People get it. They do. As long as you're doing it with the auspices of what people know, I think people are open to it."Go to this location for the complete story.
