On tuning and temperament - the beauty of a pure third
On analogy
Technique vs. musicality
On music education
On guitar composition
On interpretation - Where is Glenn Gould?
God and Spinoza
On historically informed practice
On music transcription
Ratio vs. intuition
Is music a language?
Is a composer's later work better than his early work?
On the importance of a good instrument
Performing vs. composing
On my guitar teachers
What does it mean to develop your own style?
