Keeling Book
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Wed., May 4, 2011
Andrew Keeling has published an edited version of his diaries from the old DGM site.

How do composers compose? And why?

Initiated by Robert Fripp, the Diary was intended from the outset to be the record of a living composer: one who stood with one foot inside classical music and the other in rock/folk music. Besides demonstrating the minutiae of the creative process, it also sheds light on Keeling's involvement with Fripp's record label, Discipline Global Mobile, as well as the Soundscapes orchestrations and the creation of the King Crimson Musical Guides.

Andrew Keeling is a composer, musician, improviser, arranger, teacher and writer who lives in the North West of the UK. His music has been performed and broadcast by many leading musicians and released on several record labels. It has also been published by Faber and PRB. He has written three musical guides on the music of King Crimson and has orchestrated and arranged the music of Robert Fripp. Andrew plays flute in an improvisation duo with former King Crimson violinist, David Cross. He is also a keen fell walker.
