Kenny G Quotes


Kenny G

The Moment is an album that contains the best music I have ever produced.

I`ve never personally criticized anyone else`s music, but I know that the public`s real problem is not the music I make but the perception that I play simple music for money only and for the notoriety and to increase my popularity.

Finally, I was no longer a student and was making music for myself.

When I play live, I feel how the audience is going and follow and lead at the same time.

I`ve learned that you simply can`t control those bad vibes.

I approach everything in my life the same way; if it feels right, I know it.

Being a purely instrumental album, it makes a musical statement, not a religious one, and I hope that people can feel the emotion of the great melodies, even without the words.

It wasn`t until Duotones that I felt my true voice come out.

The whole rise of new adult contemporary music and smooth jazz was a nice surprise.

What is music anyway? It`s a form of communication, and that`s why I play the kind of music that I think - that I hope - can communicate with people.

I learned so much about playing and touring being on the road and in the studio with Jeff, but I`d always played a lot of gigs in Seattle even prior to joining the Fusion.

I really create everything I do from the heart.

Just because people play songs with great technique doesn`t mean the records are better.

I`m responsive to my public, but I also follow my heart.

That`s my ideal day, time with my boys.
