When People Ask Me How They Should

I Think Of A Piece Of Music As Something That Comes Alive When It Is Being Performed, And I Feel That My Role In The Transmission Of Music Is To Be Its Best Advocate At That Moment.

I Learn Something Not Because I Have To, But Because I Really Want To. That's The Same View I Have For Performing. I'm Performing Because I Really Want To, Not Because I Have To Bring Bread Back Home.

I Think There Are So Many Ways To Become Interested In Music. I Believe Signs Of Sustained Interest Gives A Sense Of The Right Time. Music, If Thought Of As A Language, Would Perhaps Indicate That As Early As Possible Is Not So Bad. I Do Believe That A Really Nurturing First Teacher That Makes The Child Love Something Is Crucial.

As A Child, You Respond Physically, Tactically. You're Delighted By Sound, You're Delighted By Recognizing Something. It's Like Hide And Seek. Is It There? Is It Not There? Is It This Note? Is It Not This Note? It's One Fantastic Game.

When We Enlarge Our View Of The World, We Deepen Our Understanding Of Our Own Lives.
