"Gluck apparently stated that he always had his operas ready and completed in his head before he wrote them down. I don’t know if this is true; however, to a certain extent, I find this assertion appropriate in my case. I always make sketches which contain the essential elements for my motivic work, for the musical expression I have in mind. My imagination needs to be stimulated, but then it sweeps me along by itself."
- Antonín Dvořák
