More quotes by Arnold Schoenberg
I never was very capable of expressing my feelings or emotions in words. I don't know whether this is the cause why I did it in music and also why I did it in painting. Or vice versa: That I had this way as an outlet. I could renounce expressing something in words.
Arnold Schoenberg
Lucidity is the first purpose of color in music.
Arnold Schoenberg
There is still plenty of good music to be written in C major.
Arnold Schoenberg
Great art must proceed to precision and brevity. It presupposes the alert mind of an educated listener who, in a singleact of thinking, includes with every concept all associations pertaining to the complex.
Arnold Schoenberg
I owe very, very much to Mozart and if one studies, for instance, the way in which I write for string quartet, then one cannot deny that I have learned this directly from Mozart. And I am proud of it!
Arnold Schoenberg
My work should be judged as it enters the ears and heads of listeners, not as it is described to the eyes of readers.
Arnold Schoenberg
The principal function of form is to advance our understanding. It is the organization of a piece which helps the listener to keep the idea in mind, to follow its development, its growth, its elaboration, its fate.
Arnold Schoenberg
Composing is a slowed-down improvisation often one cannot write fast enough to keep up with the stream of ideas.
Arnold Schoenberg
Music is only understood when one goes away singing it and only loved when one falls asleep with it in one's head, and finds it still there on waking up the next morning.
Arnold Schoenberg
If music is frozen architecture, then the potpourri is frozen coffee-table gossip... Potpourri is the art of adding apples to pears.
Arnold Schoenberg
An artistic impression is substantially the resultant of two components. One what the work of art gives the onlooker - the other, what he is capable of giving to the work of art.
Arnold Schoenberg
I find above all that the expression, atonal music, is most unfortunate — it is on a par with calling flying the art of not falling, or swimming the art of not drowning.
Arnold Schoenberg
Market value is irrelevant to intrinsic value. ... Unqualified judgment can at most claim to decide the market-value - a value that can be in inverse proportion to the intrinsic value.
Arnold Schoenberg
If it is art, it is not for all, and if it is for all, it is not art.
Arnold Schoenberg
You cannot expect the Form before the Idea,For they will come into being together.
Arnold Schoenberg
I am the slave of an internal power more powerful than my education.
Arnold Schoenberg
Although our gentle air cannot improve the way hate and envy look, it does seem not to encourage firmness and decision. All is compromise caution and refinement are everywhere. Everything has to make a good impression - whether or not it is any good: the impression is the main thing.
Arnold Schoenberg
