Famous quotes containing the words college, music and/or festival:

    “A whale-ship was my Yale College and my Harvard.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “The basic difference between classical music and jazz is that in the former the music is always greater than its performance—Beethoven’s Violin Concerto, for instance, is always greater than its performance—whereas the way jazz is performed is always more important than what is being performed.”
    —André Previn (b. 1929)

    “Three times a year all your males shall appear before the LORD your God at the place that he will choose: at the festival of unleavened bread, at the festival of weeks, and at the festival of booths. They shall not appear before the LORD empty-handed; all shall give as they are able, according to the blessing of the LORD your God that he has given you.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 16:16,17.
