Classical World

Famous quotes containing the words classical and/or world:

    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)

    The great thing in the world is not so much to seek happiness as to earn peace and self-respect.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
