When I first wrote the suite featured in TRIP, I didnt have a title. I am the type of composer who is usually guided by sounds and feelings rather than narrative or literature. The Don Quixote reference came after the fact - in fact around the time the deadline for title information approached. Fortuitously, the sections of the suite seem to more or less fit the story of Don Quixote, though perhaps not chronologically. And while the music wasnt written with the novel by Cervantes in mind, I was interested in Don Quixote as an archetype of a dreamer and idealist. I think many of us who choose music as a career have a bit of Don Quixote in us.
