Famous quotes containing the words music and/or publisher:

    “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)

    “A publisher is a specialised form of bank or building society, catering for customers who cannot cope with life and are therefore forced to write about it.”
    —Colin Haycraft (b. 1929)
