The trumpet is forceful.

We just can't go and try to turn the clock back, that's not happening anymore. You've got to figure something else out.

Jazz is neither specific repertoire, nor academic exercise... but a way of life.

You can establish a presence on the internet; you can have just as much of a presence as a major company or anyone else.

Because people really got tired, too, of the same old formatted sort of thing, and the same old formatted music.

Because I believe that the future of the music lies in the Internet. It can be sold on the Internet.

They always say that jazz doesn't sell, but it's a lie, because it does sell, and it sells consistently year in and year out.
