A beautiful sunset that was mistaken for a dawn.
From Claude Debussy
Works of art make rules; rules do not make works of art.
The attraction of the virtuoso for the public is very like that of the circus for the crowd. There is always the hope that something dangerous will happen.
There is nothing is more musical than a sunset. He who feels what he sees will find no more beautiful example of development in all that book which, alas, musicians read but too little - the book of Nature.
Music is the arithmetic of sounds as optics is the geometry of light.
Art is the most beautiful of all lies.
Extreme complication is contrary to art.
How much has to be explored and discarded before reaching the naked flesh of feeling.
I wish to sing of my interior visions with the naive candour of a child.
I love music passionately. And because I love it I try to free it from barren traditions that stifle it.
