I’m aware of his earlier instrumental compositions and electroacoustic work.

Maybe “epiphany” would be a more appropriate word than conversion?

"Conversion" implies renouncing your previous convictions. There's nothing wrong with composing to your one, true, clear vision. Seriously, this is pretty obvious stuff.

But I doubt that's the case. I don’t think it’s fair to call this a conversion - it seems more like someone looking for a new challenge. “Conversion” implies renouncing your previous convictions.
