Quote: "ntil 2010, Donen was writing naive, two-chord pop songs that recall Syd Barrett’s more rudimentary creations. He’s since reinvented himself as an orchestral composer, teaching himself to arrange by reading Rimsky-Korsakov’s Principles of Orchestration. Never mind one of those “couch-to-5k” exercise programmes, this is the equivalent of a sofa-bound slob attempting to compete in the Olympics having just read Mo Farah’s autobiography."
