Success Is All Very Well As Long

I Think It Is Time We Learned The Lesson Of Our Century: That The Progress Of The Human Spirit Must Keep Pace With Technological And Scientific Progress, Or That Spirit Will Die. It Is Incumbent On Our Educators To Remember This; And Music Is At The Top Of The Spiritual Must List.

Even Experimental Composers, Revolutionary Composers, Self-styled Radicals Are, In Writing Revolutionary Music, Recognizing The Music That Preceded Them Precisely By Trying To Avoid It.

A Liberal Is A Man Or A Woman Or A Child Who Looks Forward To A Better Day, A More Tranquil Night, And A Bright, Infinite Future.

I Can't Live One Day Without Hearing Music, Playing It , Studying It , Or Thinking About It .

It Is Hard To Think Of Another Composer Who So Perfectly Marries Form And Passion.
