"Music is your own experience, your own thoughts, your wisdom. If you don't live it, it won't come
out of your horn."
AUTHOR: Charlie Parker
MEANING OF THE QUOTE:
“A lot of who you are is due in part to your life’s experiences.
Emotions that emanate from those experiences will come out
uniquely in the creation of music.”
