Music Happens To Be An Art Form

People Always Want To Protect What's Really Going On Inside. They Want To Kind Of Make Visible Something That Looks More Pleasant Than What May Be Happening Inside Of Themselves.

I Don't Mind Being Classified As A Jazz Artist, But I Do Mind Being Restricted To Being A Jazz Artist. My Foundation Has Been In Jazz, Though I Didn't Really Start Out That Way. I Started In Classical Music, But My Formative Years Were In Jazz, And It Makes A Great Foundation.

When You Struggle To Reach For Something You Don't Know, That's Where Most Of The Interesting Stuff Is.
