To most white people, jazz means black and jazz means dirt, and that's not what I play. I play black classical music.
The experience of being on a show that is very much in the center of popular culture is exciting. You really feel like you're reaching people.
I turned popular music on the radio, and I never listened to it again after that, in about 1985. That's when I switched over to classical music, and I pretty much stayed with that since then.
I find pop art really offensive because it's taking a piece of popular culture and putting it somewhere where people can't see it.
I don't go to movies, I don't own a television, I don't buy magazines and I try not to receive mail, so I'm not really aware of popular culture.
The media and the rest of popular culture weren't recording people's reactions to 9/11; they were forcing made-up reactions down people's throats.
Even the most jingoistic person would have to admit that even American cultural music comes from Europe. That's what classical music is, real European music.
I do like classical music, and soft rock, and jazz, which I never listened to when I was 15. Now I like it. The older you get, the more tolerant you get, right?
My parents loved classical music. And my father adored Mozart. But for some reason, I always had a reaction against it.
