 I'm always hoping for the nights that are inspired where you almost have an out of body experience. |
| And there is a time where you can be beyond yourself. You can be better than your technique. You can be better than most of your usual ideas. And this is a whole other category that you can get into. |
| We don't know the power that's within our own bodies. |
| I'm beginning to understand myself. But it would have been great to be able to understand myself when I was 20 rather than when I was 82. |
| I had the first integrated Army band in World War II. |
| There's a way of playing safe, there's a way of using tricks and there's the way I like to play which is dangerously where you're going to take a chance on making mistakes in order to create something you haven't created before. |
| It's like a whole orchestra, the piano for me. |
