Sometimes It Is The Artist's

For People Who Are Really Talented, What You Don't Say Becomes Extremely Important. You Have To Judge What To Say And What To Leave Alone So You Can Let The Talent Develop.

I'm Just A One-instrument Player. I Have Been Known To Play A Blender, But I Basically Play - Just Play The Violin.

One Of The Most Important Elements In Teaching, Conducting, And Performing, All Three, Is Listening.

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.

That Makes Classical Music Work, The Ability To Improvise.
