Learning to play is mostly about learning to hear, and learning to really listen deeply to sound in a musical way is a lifetime's worth of work.

Jazz is not something that can be defined through blunt instruments. It is much more poetic than that.

To me, there are lots of different stories to tell and you usually find the best way to tell the one you are telling once you are in it.

I was able to work with the best musicians in Kansas City starting when I was really young

Jazz is an idea that is more powerful than the details of its history.

From 1962 to 1965, the guitar became this icon of youth culture, thanks mostly to the Beatles

It is Jazz's very nature to change, to develop & adapt to the circumstances of its environment.
