Vocal Soloist Performance

Famous quotes containing the words vocal and/or performance:

The world in tune,
A spirit-voice,
And vocal joys,
Whose echo is Heaven’s bliss.”

“Tennis is more than just a sport. It’s an art, like the ballet. Or like a performance in the theater. When I step on the court I feel like Anna Pavlova. Or like Adelina Patti. Or even like Sarah Bernhardt. I see the footlights in front of me. I hear the whisperings of the audience. I feel an icy shudder. Win or die! Now or never! It’s the crisis of my life.”
—Bill Tilden (1893–1953)
