Black Musicians

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or musicians:

    Soon,
    Light from a small intense lopsided moon
    Shows them, black as their shadows, sleeping so.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Music is of two kinds: one petty, poor, second-rate, never varying, its base the hundred or so phrasings which all musicians understand, a babbling which is more or less pleasant, the life that most composers live.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)
