"I've known George Russell for some thirty years, and the one constant thing about him is that he is continually changing, growing, testing himself and the universe of sound. Also constant is his extraordinary civility. A soft-spoken man with clear ideas and no malice toward those who disagree with the way he hears, George tempers his calm with just enough irony to deal with any dissonance he himself has not created. Then there is the man's music. From this external calm has always come such extraordinary musical energy."
