So Much Of Performing Is A Mind

No One Tells You What To Do If You Completely Flop At The Beginning Of A Performance.

Every Orchestra Is Different. Sometimes, You're Blown Away By A Particular Musician. If I'm Playing The Brahms Concerto, It's Crucial To Have A Great Oboe Player, Because We Work In Tandem.

I Don't Listen To A Lot Of Music When I Have My Free Time. But I'll Go To A Jazz Club And Have A Drink And Listen To A Good Jazz Musician. Or Sometimes In The Morning, If I Want To Put Myself In A Good Mood, I'll Put On Some Latin Music.

Being A Classical Musician, You're Doing Many Things Anyway. One Day You're Doing Bach Concerto And The Next You're Doing Some Avant-garde Thing. It's Just Another Hat That I'm Allowed To Wear.

You Don't Have To Have Lots Of Love Affairs To Know What Love Is.
