It is rock music, though such an innocent sort that, you know, I don't like to listen to it and say I'm Mick Jagger or anybody like that. but it was rock and, and, and, uh, I paid attention very strongly to the guitar chords, you know, that all guitarists play on it.

And I did model it on that. But then I used a lot of... I used a lot of changes of time and a lot of interjections, which is into the exact rock beat. But I kept the beat going very much. And then I used just, you know... Lee and I sat and kind of carved it out together. Hi, and, you know, the things, did they really get pinned?

And her greatness was that she was a master musician. analyst, not only of music, but a psychoanalyst in her own way. And she used to hear the music of her students, and she was able to isolate it. She was able to shine a spotlight on what was you and what was watered-down Stravinsky.
