I Learn Something New Every Day.

It’s Like A Language. You Learn The Alphabet, Which Are The Scales. You Learn Sentences, Which Are The Chords. And Then You Talk Extemporaneously With The Horn. It’s A Wonderful Thing To Speak Extemporaneously, Which Is Something I’ve Never Gotten The Hang Of. But Musically I Love To Talk Just Off The Top Of My Head. And That’s What Jazz Music Is All About.

A Good Quartet Is Like A Good Conversation Among Friends Interacting To Each Other's Ideas.

I Learn Something New Every Day - To Edit, To Take Out All The Extraneous Matter And Stress Form, Logic, And Content. I Try To Play Beautiful Music.

We Recorded To Document Ourselves, Not To Sell A Lot Of Records.

Other Than Conversation, No Other Art Form Can Give The Satisfaction Of Spontaneous Interaction Like Jazz.
