Musical Play

Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or play:

The mood of a moment. One of those lovelorn sonatas
For wind instruments was riding past on a solemn white horse.
Everybody wondered who the new arrival was.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“Assuming that rapture is nature’s play with man, the Dionysian artist’s creative activity is the play with rapture.”
