    Quotations about Music & Singing

    Music!—who loves it not? who has not felt his soul soothed and softened by its sweet influence? ~F.B., "Notes of Music," 1848

    Music is the higher poesy. ~F.B., "Notes of Music," 1848

    Melody is, and ever will be, the very flower of music. ~August W. Ambros (1816–1876)

    A famous quote that translates some bitterness musical envy:

    ‟Why who could be drumming away there? If it isn't little Modernsky! He’s had his pigtails cut. Looks pretty good! What authentic false hair! Like a peruke! Quite (as little Modernsky conceives of him), quite the Papa Bach!” (Schoenberg Criticizing Stravinsky's Neoclassicist Tendencies)
