One of the greatest experiences I ever had was listening to a conversation with Joni Mitchell and Wayne Shorter. Just to hear them talking, my mouth was open. They understand each other perfectly, and they make these leaps and jumps because they don't have to explain anything.

I've never really been interested in doing a solo piano tour.

Jazz has borrowed from other genres of music and also has lent itself to other genres of music.

All you have to do is play one note. But it needs to be the right note.

I think there's a great beauty to having problems. That's one of the ways we learn.
