I am not fundamentally a musician, I am fundamentally a human being.
One of the greatest attributes of jazz, I think, is that it is that open.
It's not the style that motivates me, as much as an attitude of openness that I have when I go into a project.
I'm aware that a lot of what is happening in jazz has not had a very dynamic change in a long time.
You make different colors by combining those colors that already exist.
Of course, it's not the technique that makes the music; it's the sensitivity of the musician and his ability to be able to fuse his life with the rhythm of the times. This is the essence of music.
