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

    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)

    Classical art, in a word, stands for form; romantic art for content. The romantic artist expects people to ask, What has he got to say? The classical artist expects them to ask, How does he say it?
    —R.G. (Robin George)

    We often feel sad in the presence of music without words; and often more than that in the presence of music without music.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
