To Me, Bill's Musical Heart Is In

If The Audience Doesn't Hear What Is Going On, Is It Going On?

Discipline Is Never An End In Itself, Only A Means To An End.

To Me, Art Is The Capacity To Experience One's Innocence: Craft Is How You Get To That Point. Maturity In A Musician Would Be The Point At Which One Is Innocent At Will. At That Point The Relationship Between Music And The Musician Is Direct And Reliable. The Relationship With Music Is Always Mysterious: When It Works, You Can Never Tell. You Can Never Guarantee When It's Going To Work. You Can Only To Put Yourself In A Place Where It's More Likely To Happen.

The Way We Describe Our World Shows How We Think Of Our World. How We Think Of Our World Governs How We Interpret Our World. How We Interpret Our World Directs How We Participate In The World. How We Participate In The World Shapes The World.

Music So Wishes To Be Heard That It Sometimes Calls On Unlikely Characters To Give It Voice.
