I Would Like You To Know, I

That's A Very High Goal To Have, Study Eight Hours A Day To Be A Concert Pianist.

When I Was Studying... There Weren't Any Black Concert Pianists. My Choices Were Intuitive, And I Had The Technique To Do It. People Have Heard My Music And Heard The Classic In It, So I Have Become Known As A Black Classical Pianist.

That Is Why We Fly From The Inner Void, Since God Might Steal Into It. It Is Not The Pursuit Of Pleasure And The Aversion For Effort Which Causes Sin, But Fear Of God. We Know That We Cannot See Him Face To Face Without Dying, And We Do Not Want To Die.

Since I Was Three I've Been Playing The Piano. I've Been Onstage.

I'm Sorry That I Did Not Become The World's First Black Classic Pianist. I Think I Would Have Been Happier.
