I prefer a quartet, it makes everyone work harder.

The Quartets have been a major part of my work.

I love working with the quartet. I have more freedom and flexibility.

A lot of musicians have a tough time hearing what we're doing in a trio format.

A good quartet is like a good conversation among friends interacting to each other's ideas.

People like the idea of the trio and so I did mostly trio.

The Third Quartet I made the instruments in pairs - Two different pairs - Violin and viola, and violin and cello. They played very different things from each other all through the whole piece.

I seldom play in a trio, but acoustic music is likely to be lighter, quicker, and quieter.

It seems to me the structure of the Quartets is too imposed.

I've got four or five records in my head at a time that I try to work on and I would like to do a guitar trio record next - since The Police I've mostly made records with keyboards.
