The age of 18 seemed the right time to try something different in my life. Moving to the U.K. was a risk, and I was never confident that I could ever make a full-time living being a musician, but I had to try. Initially, I worked as a jazz musician in pubs or with bands.
A jazz musician can improvise based on his knowledge of music. He understands how things go together. For a chef, once you have that basis, that's when cuisine is truly exciting.
A jazz musician is a juggler who uses harmonies instead of oranges.
When I was a kid, I wanted desperately to be a jazz musician. I would practice the trumpet for hours, but when I got braces, that messed up my ability to play, so all of a sudden I had all this free time.
I would not describe myself as an avid jazz fan and I am not a jazz musician myself. However, that is not to say that jazz does not play a vital and important role in my life.
If he's a true symphony artist, he knows better than that because he knows that the only truly creative musician is the jazz musician.
I got my love of jazz from my stepfather, who was a jazz musician.
Some people think I'm a rock 'n' roll musician and some think I'm a jazz musician but, for me, there is no difference.
Some people are born with a brain that has this weird, magical mathematical thing that makes them an amazing jazz musician.
My secret dream has always been to be a jazz musician. I tried the saxophone for a year or two when I was younger, but unfortunately I had to face the fact that I was not really talented!
