Berlin Bach

Famous quotes containing the words berlin and/or bach:

    Everybody ought to have a lower East Side in their life.
    —Irving Berlin (1888–1989)

    The author’s conviction on this day of New Year is that music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance; that poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music; but this must not be taken as implying that all good music is dance music or all poetry lyric. Bach and Mozart are never too far from physical movement.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
