But they were wrong about what mattered. Real composers used the same tools to create things that were impossible before. Ólafur Arnalds collaborates with software teams. Jacob Collier builds harmonies that would require five orchestras.

The passacaglia taught me something essential: transformation doesn’t require abandoning the foundation. Sometimes freedom comes not from breaking the pattern, but from discovering new ways to move within it. #NewMusic
