The principle of the endless melody is the perpetual becoming of a music that never had any reason for starting, any more than it has any reason for ending.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think that music has an endless life.
Nature is ever at work building and pulling down, creating and destroying, keeping everything whirling and flowing, allowing no rest but in rhythmical motion, chasing everything in endless song out of one beautiful form into another.
Melody is a form of remembrance. It must have a quality of inevitability in our ears.
To me, there's two kinds of music these days. There's ephemeral music, and there's music that has lasting power and depth.
Music creates order out of chaos: for rhythm imposes unanimity upon the divergent, melody imposes continuity upon the disjointed, and harmony imposes compatibility upon the incongruous.
A melody without the right rhythm hardly exists.
Too many pieces of music finish too long after the end.
It's endless, the amount of things that music touches on that can help kids grow that are very, very practical.
There are only so many notes so there must be only so many melodies.
The aim and final end of all music should be none other than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul.
