Quote

Music is a very personal and emotional form of communication.

Music is an art form. It is a way to wordlessly communicate.

What is music anyway? It's a form of communication, and that's why I play the kind of music that I think - that I hope - can communicate with people.

I find there is room in music to talk with music. It may expand ways people can participate with music. It doesn't sound hokey or like some kind of voice-over.

The nature of music is mysterious and so much so that it generates strong emotions within us. It moves along passages that reach the most intimate areas of our psyche without being tried by prejudices or influences of any kind.

Music is a means of giving form to our inner feelings, without attaching them to events or objects in the world.

I believe that music is a spiritual language. My everyday self is pretty mundane and boring, but when I'm making music it allows for me to communicate a kind of transcendence that I can't communicate otherwise.

The word music is a convenient way to talk about what I'm interested in, but actually, in some ways, it's a limitation.

Music is a lens through which to see who we are. Every phrase of every piece of music is trying to tell a story.

What we ask of music, first and last, is that it communicate experience - experience of all kinds, vital and profound at its greatest, amusing or entertaining at another level.
