Jazz Rock

Famous quotes containing the words jazz and/or rock:

    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)

    In Little Rock the people bear
    Babes, and comb and part their hair
    And watch the want ads, put repair
    To roof and latch.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
