Things Can Fall Apart, Or Threaten To,

It's Easy For Me To Care About Toronto, Because Toronto Is A Community That Cares About Itself. It Represents The World. It Talks To Itself, And Because It Does, It Figures Out That There Must Be A Music Garden As Part Of Its Existence.

I Think Of A Piece Of Music As Something That Comes Alive When It Is Being Performed, And I Feel That My Role In The Transmission Of Music Is To Be Its Best Advocate At That Moment.

The Role Of The Musician Is To Go From Concept To Full Execution. Put Another Way, It's To Go From Understanding The Content Of Something To Really Learning How To Communicate It And Make Sure It's Well-received And Lives In Somebody Else.

People Will Ask, 'are You Famous?' And I Always Answer, 'my Mother Thinks So.'

You Go Through Phases. You Have To Reinvent Reasons For Playing, And One Year's Answer Might Not Do For Another.
