"I work at the piano. I don't use synthesizers or electronic equipment and all that stuff. My musical education is such that it pre-dates all of that and although I know a little bit about it, I haven't developed the skills. I use the piano, that's my old friend in music. And I proba­bly use it more for writing than any composition teacher would tell you is a good idea, but that's been my practice always. So part of my process is tactile. It's in the hands, that certainly is true. But as the score develops and as I know the material more and more, and get towards the end of the film, I use it less and less, as the music sort of begins to take over, and I become less oriented toward the keyboard."
