Wind Orchestra

Famous quotes containing the words wind and/or orchestra:

    The winter is made and you have to bear it,
    The winter web, the winter woven, wind and wind,
    For all the thoughts of summer that go with it
    In the mind, pupa of straw, moppet of rags....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Pop” Wyman ruled here with a firm but gentle hand; no drunken man was ever served at the bar; no married man was allowed to play at the tables; across the face of the large clock was written “Please Don’t Swear,” and over the orchestra appeared the gentle admonition, “Don’t Shoot the Pianist—He’s Doing His Damndest.”
