To be in the moment.
2. What quality do you most admire in the musicians you perform with?
To surprise me.
3. Which historical musician/composer do you admire the most? If you could resurrect a musician to perform with, who would it be?
I admire anybody with an original approach. If I could resurrect a musician to perform with, it would be Misha Mengelberg.
