Charles Kingsley

"Music is an extremely important instrument of the Divine."

Hal A. Lingerman

"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."

Hazrat Inayat Khan

"…the time is fast approaching when Man will select his music with the same intelligent care and knowledge he now uses to select his food. When that time comes, music will become a principal source of healing for many individual and social ills, and human evolution will be tremendously accelerated."

Corinne Helene

"Art is more than important—it is central to how we see ourselves, what we believe about ourselves, and how we present ourselves to each other."

Bill Ivey

"Music is your own experience, your thoughts, your wisdom. If you don't live it, it won't come out your horn."

Charlie Parker

"Seek out a wise player on a harp: and it shall come to pass…that he shall play with his hand and thou shalt be well."

I Samuel 16:16

"Music is an art that expresses the inexpressible."

Charles Munch

"Music is the answer to the mystery of life; it is the most profound of all the arts; it expresses the deepest thoughts of life and being; a simple language which nonetheless cannot be translated."

Arthur Schopenhauer
