The Quotable Musician : From Bach to Tupac

From Bach to Tupac, musicians through the ages speak out in this collection of quotations.

Both the famous and the obscure from every genre of music including classical, rock, Latin, country, blues and hip-hop are celebrated in more than one thousand quotations.

Quotes offer individual takes on the music world itself, covering: other musicians; singing and the song; performing and rehearsing; success, fame and fortune; failure and rejection; music critics; and the music business.

Readers should also see both the more playful and the more serious sides of the music masters in sections on love, passion, relationships and sex; ageing and death; nature and healing; humour and witticisms; religion and spirituality; and more.

Special sections pay particular attention to the words of Ron Carter, T.S.

Monk, the Beatles and Benny Golson.
