The virtuoso element in jazz playing, all those very fast runs in the upper extremes, simply doesn't appeal to me.

I am more interested in the way someone can play musically.

You turn up in the morning, you get through hair and make-up, and then you are on set working until it's time to go home. And I love that. Coming from the theater, you just turn up and you're ready for whatever happens. That energy really appeals to me.

Having a fling with you doesn't appeal to me. You're handsome, but you're too inexperienced to be good in bed. Having ridden many horses doesn't make you a good rider it just proves that you can't recognize a good one or don't know how to keep her.
