“The magic of playing has to do with how much everyone wants it to succeed. If you have five players in a situation where the music is being improvised and one is determined it is not going to succeed, it won't succeed even if one of the musicians takes control.” IfsWantSituationFivePlayerMagicSucceedMusicianMusic IsDeterminedTake Control Author:Bill Dixon
“Whatever I do, I attempt to do it fully. I try, and don't always succeed, to be thorough. There are musicians who do not know their worth, and if they knew it at one time, it has eluded them. I know my worth. You try not to dwell in the past.” IfsKnowsTryingPastSucceedMusicianOne TimeThorough Author:Bill Dixon
