I love pulling people into concert halls who might not otherwise go and getting their ears tuned.

Because I don't take money, I'll go anywhere and do a benefit concert with almost any orchestra.

There are a couple of roles I haven't played that I want to. I would love to play Shiloh.

I am not a long-run actor. I admire actors who can do that.

People ordinarily don't think of their orchestras as important as we'd like them to be. People don't care about their friends and neighbors who sit down to commit excellence three or four times a year, but they will go see the tall bald guy with three names from television.

In television you go in with this operating system that it is a crapshoot.
