Famous quotes containing the words music and, music and/or dance:

    “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)

    “Great music is that which penetrates the ear with facility and leaves the memory with difficulty. Magical music never leaves the memory.”
    —Thomas Beecham (1879–1961)

    “a dance sacred as the sap in
    the trees,”
    —Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
