Some people are born with a brain that has this weird, magical mathematical thing that makes them an amazing jazz musician (Jazz Quotes)
The beauty of jazz is that it’s malleable. People are addressing it to suit their own personalities (Jazz Quotes)
When you are studying jazz, the best thing to do is listen to records or listen to live music. It isn’t as though you go to a teacher. You just listen as much as you can and absorb everything (Jazz Quotes)
Jazz is not something that can be defined through blunt instruments. It is much more poetic than that (Jazz Quotes)

It’s sort of what jazz would be if it stopped being snobby and what rock would be if it stopped being stupid (Jazz Quotes)
Some people try to get very philosophical and cerebral about what they’re trying to say with jazz. You don’t need any prologues, you just play. If you have something to say of any worth then people will listen to you (Jazz Quotes)
Too many jazz pianists limit themselves to a personal style, a trademark, so to speak. They confine themselves to one type of playing. I believe in using the entire piano as a single instrument capable of expressing every possible musical idea. I have no one style. I play as I feel (Jazz Quotes)
You know I want to sing for people, I want to jazz people up I want to make new music that they’ve never heard (Jazz Quotes)

As far as I’m concerned, the essentials of jazz are: melodic improvisation, melodic invention, swing, and instrumental personality (Jazz Quotes)
I just try to do as good job with the material as I can and play some jazz as well, some improvised music, and do that every night. Just see where it goes (Jazz Quotes)
In a jazz atmosphere, the audience members were so quiet and respectful of the musicians that you felt you were almost part of a meeting at a church or a temple, where everyone was completely in tune with the sermon and what the whole event was about (Jazz Quotes)
In jazz, you listen to what the bass player is doing and what the drummer is doing, what the pianist and the guitarist is doing, and then you play something that compliments that, so you are thinking simultaneously and thinking ahead (Jazz Quotes)
The memory of things gone is important to a jazz musician. Things like old folks singing in the moonlight in the back yard on a hot night or something said long ago (Jazz Quotes)
Live action writers will give you a structure, but who the hell is talking about structure? Animation is closer to jazz than some kind of classical stage structure (Jazz Quotes)
Jazz of the sort we play is a happy, extroverted music. You don’t have to think about it too much (Jazz Quotes)
I, of course, wanted to play real jazz. When we played pop tunes, and naturally we had to, I wanted those pops to kick! Not loud and fast, understand, but smoothly and with a definite punch (Jazz Quotes)
I listen to a mixture of old jazz, contemporary, pop, some world beat stuff and various odds and ends (Jazz Quotes)
As my career has progressed, I’ve had the pleasure of playing with the baddest jazz cats on the planet. But that doesn’t change my desire to entertain folks. That’s really who I am (Jazz Quotes)
I’ve been invited to do a trio with a fantastic jazz guitarist and a harmonica player (Jazz Quotes)
They always say that jazz doesn’t sell, but it’s a lie, because it does sell, and it sells consistently year in and year out (Jazz Quotes)
Well, jazz is to me, a complete lifestyle. It’s bigger than a word. It’s a much bigger force than just something that you can say. It’s something that you have to feel. It’s something that you have to live (Jazz Quotes)
I have made a film about jazz that tries to look through jazz to see what it tells us about who we are as a people. I think that jazz is a spectacularly accurate model of democracy and a kind of look into our redemptive future possibilities (Jazz Quotes)
The genius of our country is improvisation, and jazz reflects that. It’s our great contribution to the arts (Jazz Quotes)
The stories from 1975 on are not finished and there is no resolve. I could spend 50 hours on the last 25 years of jazz and still not do it justice (Jazz Quotes)
We’re having a hard time understanding where jazz is going. What happened to jazz? (Jazz Quotes)
I like mellow music. I like some jazz. But I’m not a big hard rock guy (Jazz Quotes)
