Paolo Cortez

There are tons of reasons why I do music. Really.. I can't point out one why. All I know is that it's all I know and it's what I do. Cliche to say but It really is my life.

I consider my musical life as an adventure. Much like what jazz is. It's more than what you think it is.. It's way beyond that and anything. Kind of supernatural if I may say.

The fun thing about it is the feeling or the satisfaction of every discovery. I'd be in a zone for a week or so then will find myself discovering awestruck things i never thought of doing later. It really is the most beautiful thing!

I know it's infinite! Much as what Jazz Improvisation is.. My journey through music goes on and on and on as I discover the musical life about jazz and the life of improvisation.

Music is life! I know it is and it's my absolute escape.

My reality. My life.My escape.
