My whole thing is not just to play music for people, but to make them part of the evening.
Even though I have often recorded alone, I still feel the best music is made by musicians playing off each other.
The people that call me to play on records call me because they think that I will suit their music. And the people whose music I suit are by and large people that I'm a fan of.
The great musicians are those who can reach people, who can make people feel something.
For years the Trio did nothing but play for musicians and other hip people. We practically starved to death.
I made one rule for myself, and I really try to live it: Play music you love, with people you love, for people you love. If I can't be that kind of musician, I'll drive a cab.
The fact that they're a congressionally chartered group should no more incline people to give to that group than the fact that it's National Pickle Month should make them eat more pickles.
I want people who will stand up to me. People who are not afraid to say exactly what's on their minds, even though that's probably not what I want to hear. That's what I want.
You should play with real musicians; the best music comes from real people interacting with each other.
