Always listen for what you can leave out.
Don't worry about playing a lot of notes. Just find one pretty one.
In improvisation, there are no mistakes.
When you work with great musicians, they are always a part of you . . . their spirits are walking around in me, so they're still here and passing it on to others.
I can tell whether a person can play just by the way he stands.
Music is a funny thing when you really come to think about it.
