I try to see the feelings I need to put in every phrase and to feel my muscles in my body, the energy that is going to be needed to "play" the instruments of the orchestra. - Enrique Diemecke Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:57:21 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-149 I see can see how that is true. So, how will you spend your day preparing for the rehearsal tonight? And - I will see you tomorrow! - Helen Bas Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:54:18 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-148 Yes, Helen, it is. I took composition as part of my learning experience to improve my view to the composers and me as a conductor. Because a composer puts the notes on a piece of paper, now a computer, and someone else is going to have to interpret them. So, you have to be, as a composer, more clear of what it is you want of the interpreters to understand so they can perform your work the way you thought you conceived it. - Enrique Diemecke Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:52:25 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-147 That's too bad - your compositions have been so enjoyable. YOur first calling is as a conductor! - Helen Bas Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:49:52 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-146 Unfortunately, I haven't been able to write anything lately. I've been traveling to various places and it doesn't give me the time to sit down and prepare anything. Composing normally comes out of an inspiration and that is not something you just call. It is something that appears. The muses come any moment and you have to be ready to write things down. And, I never settle enough in one place to be able to write those things. - Enrique Diemecke Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:48:08 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-145 In past years you have composed several pieces yourself, including one for former Mexican president Vicente Fox. Are you still composing? Will we be hearing any Diemecke pieces soon at an FSO concert? - Pam Howe Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:45:43 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-144 For sure, Helen. I always believe that one needs to take seriously, but not dull. Work is discipline and discipline brings you to do good work. But when you add some sense of humor it becomes fun! And not any more is going to be work. - Enrique Diemecke Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:45:20 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-143 LOL. BUt seriously, a sense of humor must be very necessary, as well as flexibility, in doing what you do. - Helen Bas Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:43:56 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-142 I have a snow plow-er too! - Amy Trottier Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:43:17 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-141 The mig was big! - Enrique Diemecke Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:42:11 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-140 Make that big, not mig!!!!!! - Helen Bas Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:41:17 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-139 You got it, Helen! - Enrique Diemecke Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:40:48 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-138 Yes, I have a snow plow-er. - Enrique Diemecke Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:40:04 +0100 http://www.flintinstituteofmusic.org/fso-blog/505-blog-with-enrique#comment-137 Amy - I can just see Enrique on top of a mig riding plow, conducting the snow out of his way! - Helen Bas Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:39:54 +0100
