Musical training is a more potent instrument than any other, because rhythm and harmony find their way into the inward places of the soul, on which they mightily fasten, imparting grace, and making the soul of him who is rightly educated graceful, or of him who is ill-educated ungraceful.
Socrates

Musical theatre is my first love.
Laura Benanti
Image
Musical compositions can be very sad - Chopin - but you have the pleasure of this sadness. The cheap consolation is: you will be happy. The higher consolation is the pleasure and recognition of your unhappiness, the pleasure of having recognised that fate, destiny and life are such as they are and so you reach a higher form of consciousness.
Umberto Eco
Image
Musical numbers should carry the action of the play and should be representative of the personalities of the characters who sing them.
Jerome Kern
Image
Musical types tend to combine the burden of the author with the burden of the actor.
Iggy Pop

Edward Albee

Musical theatre goes through cycles. I came in when it was at the absolute height of musical theatre as I remember it. It was the age of the long-runners.
Ruthie Henshall

Musical ideas sprang to my mind like a flight of butterflies, and all I had to do was to stretch out my hand to catch them
Charles Gounod
Image
Musical compositions, it should be remembered, do not inhabit certain countries, certain museums, like paintings and statues. The Mozart Quintet is not shut up in Salzburg: I have it in my pocket.
Henri Rabaud
Image
Musical innovation is full of danger to the State, for when modes of music change, the laws of the State always change with them.
Plato
Image
Musical acts that feign enthusiasm for what they're doing the guitarist who jumps up and down, like it's choreographed are so transparently vacuous.
John Maus
Image
Musical people always want one to be perfectly dumb at the very moment when one is longing to be perfectly deaf.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Musical shows are really popular because there are lots of talented kids out there that can sing and dance.
Justin Chambers
Image
Musical expression is never primarily national, but is personal and individual rather. It is so deep, so profound, that it goes beyond and below nationality and gives voice to the most private feeling. In music there is never exact heredity. Each man is an individual.
Ignacy Jan Paderewski
Image
Musical talent is maybe something, but there are no unmusical people. You're moved by music. It's total rubbish to say, Oh, I'm unmusical. It doesn't exist it's ridiculous.
Igor Levit
Image
Musical theatre is something I'm familiar with, I've been doing that.
David Naughton
Image
Tonality itself - with its process of instilling expectations and subsequently withholding promised fulfillment until climax - is the principal musical means during the period from 1600 to 1900 for arousing and channeling desire.
Susan McClary
Image
It is a miracle a musical gets up because of all the different departments and how much it costs. It is a miracle.
Susan Stroman
Image
I am an opera virgin I'd far prefer to see a musical such as 'Guys and Dolls.
Sophie Thompson

Commentating, illustrating, description giving, adjective expert, analyzing, surmising musical myth seeking people of the universe, this is yours.
T La Rock
Image
I was very conceptual about what I was doing I had the first five albums planned out, and all the songs on every album, and the artwork. I always had these ambitious musical projects in mind.
St. Lucia
Image
When I first got to New York, all I did was musicals. After a few years I had to make a conscious choice to close the door on musicals, because I was getting pigeon-holed as a musical theater performer.
Tamara Tunie
Image
It may sound paradoxical, but verbal fluency is the product of many hours spent writing about nothing, just as musical fluency is the product of hours spent repeating scales.
