I Still Have Great Faith In What

I Was Always Drawn To Broadway Musicals, And Obviously Composers Like Gershwin, Rodgers, Berlin And Porter Were Writing Music That I Found Wildly Impressive.

Normally I Can Balance Two Or Three Things. The Problem Is When You're Out Of Work And Don't Have Anything To Balance. I Think People Assume You're Always Busy. You Go Through Dry Spells.

I Don't Think They Understand It's As Important As Math And Science. It Rounds You Out As A Person. I Think It Gives You A Love Of Certain Things. You Don't Have To Become The Next Great Composer. It's Just Nice To Have Heard Certain Things Or To Have Seen Certain Things. It's Part Of Being A Human Being.

From The Time I Could Play The Piano, I Remember Trying To Write Tunes. They Were In My Head, And I Would Just Sit Down And Start Noodling. Next Thing I Knew, I Had Written A Melody.

Music Can Make A Difference. There Is A Global Nature To Music, Which Has The Potential To Bring All People Together. Music Is Truly An International Language, And I Hope To Contribute By Widening Communication As Much As I Can.
