After The Police broke up in 1986, Stewart Copeland quickly found a new path composing film scores. Copeland tells 60 Minutes he knew little about film scoring. But he understood rhythm. He says, as a composer, he likes to create parts that are fun to play. He traces his love of orchestral music back to his mother. “My daddy raised me to be a jazz musician. But meanwhile, just quietly, my mother was playing Stravinsky, Ravel, Debussy,” he says. “In one ear, I got Jimi Hendrix. In the other ear, I’ve got Igor Stravinsky. And so they’ve always both kind of been there interacting in my brain.” #stewartcopeland #thepolice #orchestra #composer
