| "(When I was 11) my father had taken me to go see Oscar Peterson and I had actually sat in and had played with Clark Terry the evening before. I told Oscar that, and when the concert was over, he had me come play. He just had to hear me, because I told him that I played with Clark Terry and I was eleven years old, and he was a little shocked by that. So I sat in with him; and Lawrence Berk (who was the president of Berklee at the time) and his wife, Elma, were there, and they offered me a scholarship." |
