A Good Quartet Is Like A Good

I Cannot Play A Lie. I Have To Believe In What I Play Or It Won't Come Out.

I Compulsively Reach For Perfection In Music, Often At The Expense Of Everything Else In My Life.

I Never Consciously Tried To Conceive Of What My Sound Should Be...i Never Tried To Imitate Anybody, But When You Love Somebody's Music, You're Influenced...i Really Don't Know How I Developed My Sound, But It Comes From A Combination Of My Musical Conception And No Doubt The Basic Shape Of The Oral Cavity.

The Saxophone Is Actually A Translation Of The Human Voice, In My Conception. All You Can Do Is Play Melody. No Matter How Complicated It Gets, It's Still A Melody.

Life Is Too Full Of Distractions Nowadays. When I Was A Kid We Had A Little Emerson Radio And That Was It. We Were More Dedicated. We Didn't Have A Choice.
