I don't think what I do is influenced by suffering. I come from a talented people who are prolific in music and dance.

I work with talented people. I'm just their tool.

There's a lot of really talented people in Utah, people who would really make an effort to make the music the best that it could be and as emotional as it could be.

I don't think any musician ever thinks about making a statement. I think everybody goes into music loving it.

Great things are accomplished by talented people who believe they will accomplish them.

I hear the name Gershwin and I think of the most incredibly talented, prolific, extraordinary composer of the century, and his music is as fresh and vital today as it was when he originally created it.
