A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
即兴创作
Improvising
While you're improvising, you may come up with something which will break him up. As soon as that smile comes out, you know that, hey, we're having fun.
当你即兴创作时，你可能会想出一些让他崩溃的东西。只要你露出笑容，你就知道，嘿，我们玩得很开心。
The interesting thing about improvisation is you're making something up in front of the audience. Now music helps you out a little bit because you have an instrument that'll separate you from the audience.
即兴创作的有趣之处在于，你是在观众面前编造一些东西。现在音乐能帮你一点忙因为你有一种乐器能把你和观众分开。
Even if you're improvising, the fact that beforehand you know certain things will work helps you make those improvisations successful. It really helps to have a certain amount of knowledge about musical structure.
即使你是即兴创作，你事先知道某些事情会起作用，这一事实会帮助你使即兴创作成功。对音乐结构有一定的了解真的很有帮助。
You're just sort of searching for this "thing" and sometimes you get it and sometimes you don't. All music is imperfect, but in jazz since you're improvising, at least the way I play, I'm trying to follow my train of thought in a solo.
你只是在寻找这个“东西”，有时你会得到它，有时你不会。所有的音乐都是不完美的，但在爵士乐中，既然你是即兴创作的，至少是我演奏的方式，我就试着在独奏中跟随我的思路。
Jazz music should be inclusive. Smooth jazz to me rules out a certain kind of drama and a certain tension that I think all music needs. Especially jazz music, since improvising is one of the cornerstones of what jazz is. And when you smooth it out, you take all the drama out of it.
爵士乐应该是包容的。对我来说，流畅的爵士乐排除了某种戏剧和某种张力，我认为所有音乐都需要这种张力。尤其是爵士乐，因为即兴创作是爵士乐的基石之一。当你平静下来，你就把所有的戏剧性都去掉了。
When I'm on stage, it's a little world I've created where I'm sort of the thing, so I have total control over everything that happens. When we're improvising, I'm with someone I totally trust. I know things are going to work out. I don't have those guarantees in life. There are no consequences on stage.
当我在舞台上的时候，我创造了一个小世界，在那里我是某种东西，所以我可以完全控制发生的一切。当我们即兴表演时，我和一个我完全信任的人在一起。我知道事情会有结果的。我在生活中没有这些保证。在舞台上没有任何后果。
