[on Irish composer Thomas Moore] He gave the tenors of the world some of their greatest pieces. Look at the stuff that guy wrote: Tis the Last Rose of Summer, The Minstrel Boy, The Meetings of the Waters. It's fantastic stuff. And I've always wanted to share [his] history; he's a really interesting guy. He was one of Lord Byron's friends, when Byron was banished from England. He also was a political guy. A tragic life in many ways too. A wife and five children, and all of them died before he did. One bad thing after another. But a relentless romantic and a great teacher, and a very intelligent man.
