All
my concerts had no sounds in them; they were completely silent. People had
to make up their own music in their minds! Yoko Ono The essence
of music isn't written in notes. James Brown There's
a basic rule which runs through all kinds of music, kind of an unwritten
rule. I don't know what it is. But I've got it. |
| Remarkable Quotes About Music |
| Music is
essentially useless, as life is; but both lend utility to their
conditions. G. Santayana. |
It is better
to make a piece of music than to perform one, better to perform one than
to listen to one, better to listen to one than to misuse it as a means of
distraction, entertainment, or acquisition of 'culture'. J. Cage. |
| Arranging
is like assembling a jigsaw puzzle with more than one solution and too
many pieces. Eric Turkel |
There
are more love songs than anything else. If songs could make you do
something we'd all love one another. Frank Zappa |
| Conductors
must give unmistakable and suggestive signals to the orchestra, not
choreography to the audience. George Szell |
There are two golden rules for an orchestra: start together and finish together. The public doesn't give a damn what goes on in between. |
| Music should never be harmless. | A
good composer does not imitate; he steals. Igor Stravinsky |
| Without
music, life is a journey through a desert. Pat Conroy |
The
high note is not the only thing. Placido Domingo |
| Discords make
the sweetest airs. S. Butler. |
It
is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty
of loneliness and of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of
disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature, and
everlasting beauty of monotony. Benjamin Britten |
