Famous quotes containing the words dance, music, composed and/or mozart:
“Night is juba, night is conjo.
Pretty Malinda, dance with me.”
—Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)
“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)
“Everything great in the world comes from neurotics. They alone have founded our religions and composed our masterpieces.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“Mozart has the classic purity of light and the blue ocean; Beethoven the romantic grandeur which belongs to the storms of air and sea, and while the soul of Mozart seems to dwell on the ethereal peaks of Olympus, that of Beethoven climbs shuddering the storm-beaten sides of a Sinai. Blessed be they both! Each represents a moment of the ideal life, each does us good. Our love is due to both.”
—Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)
