About
Since 1948, after seeing the movie, The Thief of Bagdad, I composed cerebral symphonies every day. It was a pleasant pastime. But suddenly in 1953 I needed a full orchestra at my command - me playing every instrument in that impossible ensemble (Impossible! It would have had to include a full Western High-Art orchestra, bagpipes, Rahet Ek Lek, Saron, Sarangi, Gender and numerous other instruments). Furthermore, there was no time to study composition, conducting etc. Besides I was too young. I needed it then, immediately, to drown out with music, the new disturbing sounds I heard emanating for my own .
