I don't like to travel as much as I have in the past, but it's good for my soul to get to pick, especially with these good musicians and these guys that play so well. ↗

The great thing about being the son of Maya Angelou is that I had the good fortune to grow up around some of the greatest black artists, dancers, singers, musicians, and actors of our time. ↗

In Berlin I especially enjoyed the orchestral concerts, and I attended a large number of them. I formed the acquaintance of a good many musicians, several of whom spoke of my playing in high terms. ↗

I think it was that we were really seasoned musicians. We had serious roots that spanned different cultures, obviously the blues. ↗

And I'm always interested when other musicians are trying to discover new worlds of sound. ↗

Since I started composing I have always worked with series of tempos, even superimposed the music of different groups of musicians, of singers, instrumentalists who play and sing in different tempos simultaneously and then meet every now and then in the same tempo. ↗

Whenever I felt happy about having discovered something, the first encounter, not only with the public, with other musicians, with specialists, etc, was that they rejected it. ↗

I believe musicians have a duty, a responsibility to reach out, to share your love or pain with others. ↗

I don't take compliments very easily. I think most musicians suffer from low self-esteem to some extent. ↗

I'm glad about what's happening to the music business. This last crop of people we had in the 90s, who are going away now, they didn't like music. They didn't trust musicians. They wanted something else from it. ↗
