We No Longer Want To Be A

In The Jazz At Lincoln Center Orchestra We Play Such A Diversity Of Music, With 10 Arrangers In The Band, We Don't Really Worry About Whether It's Contemporary Or Not.

I Play Piano And Drums Very Poorly And French Horn And Tuba All Equally As Bad.

I Think That The Blues Is In Everything, So It's Not Possible To Neglect It. You Hear Somebody Go 'ooh Ooh Oooh,' And That's The Blues. You Hear A Rock N' Roll Song. That's The Blues. Somebody Playing A Guitar Solo? They're Playing The Blues.

The Arts Shows That You're Civilized, And It Makes Life Sweet. So You Can Exist And You Can Buy More Things And You Can Be More - We're Dealing With A Form Of Commercialism That Obscures A Prior Relationship To Quality, And It's A National Problem.

The Heart Of A Music Is Its Rhythm. The Heart Of Rhythm Section Music Is The Rhythm.
