Jazz Is About Being In The Moment.

I Think Risk-taking Is A Great Adventure. And Life Should Be Full Of Adventures.

I Like To Be On The Edge, On The Cutting Edge, Or Be Into The Unknown, Into The Territory Where I Have To Depend On Being In The Moment And Depending On My Instincts.

I Am Not Fundamentally A Musician, I Am Fundamentally A Human Being.

I'm Very Conscious Of The Idea Of Trying To Each Time Present Something That I Haven't Presented Before. It's A Challenge To Me To Find Something New, To Find Something Innovative, But It's Also Very Exciting.

Jazz Is Really About The Human Experience. It’s About The Ability Of Human Beings To Take The Worst Of Circumstances And Struggles And Turn It Into Something Creative And Constructive. That’s Something That’s Built Into The Fiber Of Every Human Being. And I Think That’s Why People Can Respond To It. They Feel The Freedom In It. And The Attributes Of Jazz Are Also Admirable. It’s About Dialogue. It’s About Sharing. And Teamwork. It’s In The Moment, And It's Nonjudgmental.
