I find myself more at peace when I live in Europe.
If you look at my audiences, even in Europe, they're hardly teenagers.
When I was doing jazz concerts in America, I would use the biggest names I could find.
Ellington is a writer and arranger, as well as a musician and leader. He does movie sound tracks.
For years, Jazz At The Philharmonic albums were the only ones of their kind.
I don't think I will ever do any tours again in the United States. I rather think that that's over with.
