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)

    There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
