I Can't Walk Very Well,

Nothing Is Better For My Playing Than Teaching Because When You Teach, You Have To Think And You Have To Listen What Other People Do. And Then All Of A Sudden, You Play Yourself And Then You Say, My Goodness, I Don't Need A Teacher. I'm My Own Teacher. Then I Can React To What I'm Doing Immediately. It Really Improves.

The Most Important Thing To Do Is Really Listen.

When You Play A Concerto With A Small Orchestra, You Don't Feel It Is As Important As Carnegie Hall. You Try To Work Out All The Little Problems. Once That's All Done, Trust Comes In.

Every Musical Phrase Has A Purpose. It's Like Talking. If You Talk With A Particular Purpose, People Listen To You, But If You Just Recite, It's Not As Meaningful.

I Always Consider Myself Lucky That I Can Actually Cry Listening To Some Music.
