Arthur Schopenhauer

“Music has been called the speech of angels.”

“Music is the soundtrack of your life.”

Dick Clark

Charles Munch

“I am Music….Even before life began upon this earth, I was here—in the winds and the waves….And when Man came, I at once became the most delicate, most subtle, and most powerful medium for the expression of Man’s emotions….For I speak to all men, in a language that all understand….I am the food of love. I have taught men gentleness and peace. I comfort the lonely. I am a necessary luxury to all men.”
