Music is just kind of an expression of who I am. It's what I do.

I look at the artistic process as like experiencing the world, channeling it through your personality and sending it back out there. That's the process.

Its all about finding the right note at the right place and knowing when to leave well enough alone. And that's a lifelong quest.

Music is just kind of an expression of who I am. It's what I do.

Instrumental music is increasingly marginalized.

Jazz music by its very nature is just a conglomerate of a lot of different kinds of music.
