Improvisation is the courage to move from one note to the next.

Sometimes mistakes are the best thing that can happen, because they might lift you...out of your complacency, and open your mind up to a whole other area that you wouldn't have gone to intentionally.

When we're doing our lessons, the teacher doesn't say, 'Ready, set, work,' They say, 'Ready, set, play,' and I always took that word seriously.

Musicians are the architects of heaven.

The voice gets to the soul of a person more than any other instrument. Because it's the voice. It sings talks, it cries, it laughs, it squeals, it barks, it shouts it whispers, There is no other instrument that can do that. We're born with it.

I prepared five songs, I sang them, and he hired me. I started working about a month later at the piano bar.

When you worry your face will frown, that will bring everybody down, so don't worry BE HAPPY!:)
