Romantic Jazz

Famous quotes containing the words romantic and/or jazz:

    He must have a truly romantic nature, for he weeps when there is nothing at all to weep about.

    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)
