I cannot say what I think is right about Music. I only know the rightness of it.

Music always turns into music. As soon as I play a key, push a key down, there's no theory any more. When I go and I hear a sound on the keyboard, all theories go out the window.

Jazz is one of the least learnable art forms.

I realized that improvisers should probably always have time off. But musicians are always gigging and never have a chance to stop for a minute - unless something drastic occurs.

If sound is music and came from silence, then silence is potentially greater than sound. If the sound is effective, it should actually have a chemical - some sort of physiological - effect on the listener, so he doesn't have to hear that sound again.

I actually get a metallic taste in my mouth when I think about electric music.

When you're up against an electric band like that, it's like you're on two separate planets.
