More quotes by Igor Stravinsky
What I cannot follow are the manic-depressive fluctuations from total control to no control, from the serialization of all elements to chance.
Igor Stravinsky
To continue in one path is to go backward.
Igor Stravinsky
My freedom will be so much the greater and more meaningful the more narrowly I limit my field of action and the more I surround myself with obstacles. Whatever diminishes constraint diminishes strength. The more constraints one imposes, the more one frees one's self of the chains that shackle the spirit.
Igor Stravinsky
Just as appetite comes by eating, so work brings inspiration, if inspiration is not discernible at the beginning.
Igor Stravinsky
The principle of the endless melody is the perpetual becoming of a music that never had any reason for starting, any more than it has any reason for ending.
Igor Stravinsky
An audience is an abstraction it has no taste. It must depend on the only person who has (pardon, should have), the conductor.
Igor Stravinsky
Music's exclusive function is to structure the flow of time and keep order in it.
Igor Stravinsky
I haven't understood a bar of music in my life, but I have felt it.
Igor Stravinsky
I have learned throughout my life as a composer chiefly through my mistakes and pursuits of false assumptions, not by my exposure to founts of wisdom and knowledge.
Igor Stravinsky
It is my conviction that the public always shows itself more honest in its spontaneity than do those who officially set themselves up as judges of works of art.
Igor Stravinsky
Vivaldi didn't write 400 concertos he wrote one concerto 400 times.
Igor Stravinsky
I am an inventor of music.
Igor Stravinsky
Music is given to us specifically to make order of things, to move from an anarchic, individualistic state to a regulated, perfectly concious one, which alone insures vitality and durability.
Igor Stravinsky
To be deprived of art and left alone with philosophy is to be close to Hell.
Igor Stravinsky
Composers combine notes, that's all.
Igor Stravinsky
Why is it that whenever I hear a piece of music I don't like, it's always by Villa Lobos?
Igor Stravinsky
Look for the music on all things, and life will be a symphony of joy. My music is best understood by children and animals.
Igor Stravinsky
An artist is like a pig snouting truffles.
Igor Stravinsky
Music is...the coordination between man and time.
Igor Stravinsky
Music must be listened to it is not enough to hear it. A duck hears also.
Igor Stravinsky
