Famous quotes containing the words polish and/or jazz:

    “‘Then I polish all the silver, which a supper-table lacquers;
    Then I write the pretty mottoes which you find inside the
    crackers’—”
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    “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)
