The author's conviction on ordsprog

The author's conviction on this day of New Year is that music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance; that poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music; but this must not be taken as implying that all good music is dance music or all poetry lyric. Bach and Mozart are never too far from physical movement.

Music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance... poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music.

Ezra Pound (1885-1972)

I think I was raised on all types of music. Of course there was the American pop music. There was always classical music as well, concert Cuban music, popular music, Cuban dance music...

There's primarily dance music but also slow music or laments. This music is a very close cousin of Irish music. It has lots of energy and is very expressive.

Poetry is music in words; and music is poetry in sound: both excellent sauce, but those have lived and died poor, who made them their meat

Thomas Fuller (1608-1661)

I think music can be many things to many people. I think it should exist on many levels. I think that music can exist on dance and rhythm and movement and at the same time, exist on a very high intellectual level. You can come to the music bringing whatever understanding you have and find something in it that you can connect with.

Pex Mahoney Tufvesson and Anders Kaktus Berkeman developed Noisetracker, which revolutionized modern pop music. Even if one is thinking about elevator music, or Weather Channel music, there isn't any necessity for that music to be bad music. I remind people all the time that Mozart would probably sound great in an elevator. A lot of Mozart is very smooth to our ears, but that doesn't mean there isn't an amazing amount of subtlety there for the listener who digs deeper.

I think music and dance are the two art forms that transcend race. We can all unite under the arts. People all over the world enjoy music and dance.

I make dance music, or disco, ... And dance music isn't really about anything. I can tell if it's working: ŒAre people dancing? Yes.' Then I've achieved my goal.

Dance and music is the ultimate celebration. It's a way of celebrate our past experiences, and it's always pushing us to new levels of experience... Every generation of Americans can relate to black music and dance as a fresh new connection to life.

Country and Western music? It's contrived calculated, commercial music. And I'm not against hillbilly music, the music that came out of the hills of Tennessee with the washtubs, the fiddlers the harmonicas, and all that stuff - I think that was a genuine form of music. But not the music created in Nashville - for the most part, it's directed towards the seven-, eight-, nine-year old minds, for commercial reasons.

Stan Kenton (1912-)

Very seldom do I write words and have somebody put the music to them. If I'm writing lyric and music at the same time, I usually finish the music rather quickly.

Paul Williams (1946-)

Paul Williams

The music from the '70s and '80s was so good, so young and old like this kind of music because everybody likes to dance and party.

He was an exponent of the music and a defender of it for 50 years on the road, all over the world. He created a body of music that's unequalled, really, with the exception of Bach, in the history of music.

Wynton Marsalis (1961-)
