A young man in a hurry

Article Abstract:

Composer, conductor and pianist Thomas Ades finds it very difficult to plan a regular work routine. He dislikes mornings, and is unable to force himself to work. He trained as a percussionist, and often seeks to incorporate everyday sounds into his music. He hopes that his works will change the people who hear them, but does not wish to influence anybody else's work. He aims to open up new avenues, rather than close them.

If you see Syd, leave him alone

Article Abstract:

There has been a revival of interest in Syd Barrett, who played with the rock group Pink Floyd for a year until early 1968. His apparent degeneration into mental illness cast a long-term shadow over Pink Floyd, which produced music obsessed with madness and alienation.
