Is it not by love alone that we succeed in penetrating to the very essence of being?
Igor Stravinsky

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.
Bill Dixon
