Manipulating shadows and tonality is like writing music or a poem. Conrad Hall
We were really interested in music from all over the world. We realized that what we were doing was very close to contemporary classical music because of the lack of tonality in the guitar- the fact that I play guitar the way I play. Arto Lindsay
Gavin Bryars quote: "Writing tonal music now, you are not writing into the 19th..."

First, it doesn't surprise me that traditional music has experienced a kind of exhaustion in the 20th century - not forgetting that many musicians started to look outside the traditional structures of tonality. Pierre Schaeffer
