“One interesting thing - I play bass and guitar and stuff like that. I know those instruments really well. But I don't know how to play clarinet or trombone or any of these other instruments. I don't actually know how to play ukulele even though I've played it a lot in the past. Because of the weird tuning it's not exactly like a guitar. That's one of the reasons I like that instrument - it makes for surprises. It's not so predictable as the bass or the guitar is for me.”
![“[I wanted] to play the clarinet well so I could be in Duke Ellington's band, but that's now impossible.” quote by Nat Hentoff](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/dcd/nat-hentoff-1615_band_i-wanted-to-play-the-clarinet-well-so-i_426522.jpg)
