After every concert, I greet young people in the lobbies. And I see a huge surge of young people playing music.

It always amazes me when I see young people with raw talent and passion.

When I see young people interested in music. I always look out for that passion in their eyes. You never know where that might lead.

I see a young man playing 'Plaisir d'Amour' on guitar. I knew I didn't want to go to college; I was already playing a ukulele, and after I saw that, I was hooked. All I wanted to do was play guitar and sing.

Pop music should be about young people.

We live in a very chaotic world that sometimes we - it just seems like a mess. One of the reasons why we listen to music, and to great classical music in particular, is that everything is in an order and in a place and has a beauty that you see in nature, that you see and that people look for when they look for God.
