Modern Drummer, July 1994 “Even though I’ve got that humongous drum kit sitting there, I’ve learned I don’t have to use it all at once. Igor Stravinsky [composer, 1882-1971] thought nothing of having five solo cellos play a section in the middle of an orchestral piece with 105 other instruments sitting there silent, because it created a beautiful texture that he couldn’t have achieved with everyone playing at once. Sometimes, I think about that when I splash the bell and let it hang for a measure and then start up again. Stravinsky’s utilization of colors and textures and effects is really inspirational to me.” Terry BozzioModern Drummer, July 1994 moderndrummer.com/archive
