More quotes by Charles Rosen
The belief may be too often mistaken, but the illusion of coming into direct contact with the past is intoxicating and persuasive, and can result in an interpretation that carries conviction. Sometimes confidence is all that's needed.
Charles Rosen
When recordings replaced concerts as the dominant mode of hearing music, our conception of the nature of performance and of music itself was altered.
Charles Rosen
The death of classical music is perhaps its oldest continuing tradition.
Charles Rosen
A love of classical music is only partially a natural response to hearing the works performed, it also must come about by a decision to listen carefully, to pay close attention, a decision inevitably motivated by the cultural and social prestige of the art.
Charles Rosen
