Famous quotes containing the words dance and/or music:
“Shall we go dance the hay, the hay?
Never pipe could ever play
Better shepherd’s roundelay.”

“I’ve come close to matching the feeling of that night in 1944 in music, when I first heard Diz and Bird, but I’ve never got there.... I’m always looking for it, listening and feeling for it, though, trying to always feel it in and through the music I play every day.”
—Miles Davis (1926–1991)
