Chord Tone

Famous quotes containing the words chord and/or tone:

“Love took up the glass of Time, and turned it in his glowing hands;
Every moment, lightly shaken, ran itself in golden sands.
Love took up the harp of Life, and smote on all the chords with
might;
Smote the chord of Self, that, trembling, passed in music out of sight.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

“When you listen to gongs and drums, listen to the music; when you listen to someone talk, listen to his tone of voice.”
