Chord Tones

Famous quotes containing the words chord and/or tones:

    The notes, random
    From tuning, wander into the heat
    Like a new insect chirping in the scrub,
    Untired at noon. A chord gathers and spills....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    There sighs, lamentations and loud wailings resounded through the starless air, so that at first it made me weep; strange tongues, horrible language, words of pain, tones of anger, voices loud and hoarse, and with these the sound of hands, made a tumult which is whirling through that air forever dark, as sand eddies in a whirlwind.
    Dante Alighieri (1265–1321)
