Artist Statement: 
In 1961, jazz baroness Nica de Koenigwarter began to ask musicians she encountered in New York clubs to name three wishes. J. J. Johnson had one: “ To be able to play exactly what I have in my mind.” Other answers include “peace on earth and them other planets” (Wayne Shorter), “all the Steinways” (Sonny Clarke), and “money, money, money!” (Philly Joe Jones) ...but J.J.’s stood out the most. I live for a musical relationship where creation and groove inspires me. Groove is everything. Groove is something that is rewarding on a spiritual level, a primal level, an intellectual level, and a physical level. It’s something you feel. Something I always want to feel.
