Emanuel Bach

Famous quotes containing the words emanuel and/or bach:

    Begin with loss and see
    how the world contradicts you,
    how the horizon implies that beyond it
    the water is not empty
    but full of ships
    all docking at another island.
    —Lynn Emanuel (b. 1949)

    The author’s conviction on this day of New Year is that music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance; that poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music; but this must not be taken as implying that all good music is dance music or all poetry lyric. Bach and Mozart are never too far from physical movement.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
