"Michelangelo's genius was known and recognized. I imagined a Michelangelo tortured by his desire to achieve perfection, truth and the absolute in a world he knew he might not be able to see or understand. I also imagined an intelligent, highly spiritual artist. I chose the tone of La Mineur to represent this piety." (Gregory Charles)
