Your
Majesties, your Royal Highness,
Excellencies, Ladies and
Gentlemen, what an incredible honor it
is to be here tonight to receive the
prestigious Polar Music
Prize. I'm deeply humbled by this
meaningful recognition.
Thank you for the esteemed members of
the Polar Music Prize
Foundation. I accept this award not just
for
myself but on behalf of all the
musicians and
dreamers who dare to believe that
creativity and human connection can
change the world.
None of my music and dreams would have
been possible without the invaluable
guidance of my great
mentors, my first piano teacher, Mrs.
Jordan, Miles
Davis, my best friend and polarized
laurette, Wayne
Sharter, and SGI Buddhist leader and
educator, Daako Iikada.
each played a significant role in
shaping my outlook and the direction of
my
music.
Music is the creative footprint of
humanity telling our shared stories.
The thing about music
is it teaches us to
listen and jazz specifically teaches us
how to
listen
together. It invites
improvisation, demands
adaptability, and inspires active
engagement.
It's about expressing
yourself while also uplifting the voices
around
you. I truly believe that music and the
arts can illuminate the path towards a
more peaceful and compassionate world.
And it is vital that we the artists give
back and share our knowledge and
experiences with a younger generation,
our leaders of
tomorrow. Special thanks to all the
musicians who I've had the pleasure of
working with over the past seven
decades. It's a long list of some of the
most creative minds on the planet. to my
remarkable fellow honores, laurates
Barbara Hanigan and
Queen. You've made the world a better
place through your artistry, your
dedication, and your
humanity. And my greatest thanks to my
wife and to my daughter
Jessica, the two most wonderful women in
the world.
With their support, they make it
possible day in and day out for me to do
what I do and to accomplish what we've
accomplished. In closing, I would like
to thank music's greatest champions and
supporters, our loving audiences and
listeners around the
world. And thank all of you for keeping
music alive and well and vital and for
you being here to help me celebrate this
great honor.
And I want to graciously accept this
award in the spirit of all the music
that has shaped me, my career, and my
life. Thank you so much.
