“Beethoven and Beatles, Mozart and Michael Jackson, Paganini and Prince - I like them all.”
Vanessa Mae
“Michael Jackson's song "one step at a time " seems to describe everybody, metaphorically and literally. At Least that one line.”
Sonya.E.Williams
“I've outdone anyone you can name - Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, Strauss. Irving Berlin, he wrote 1,001 tunes. I wrote 5,500.”
James Brown
“If Beethoven and Bach hooked up with Mozart and made a band, they could be a distant runner up to The D.”
Jack Black
“[Indeed, despite a Teutonic accent, Zawinul contradicts stereotypes about his Austrian heritage that he should be playing Mozart and Beethoven.] There is another Austria, ... much less known, and that is the folk music of Austria. Even the way we speak is very musical, like a walking jazz bass. Classical music is so dusty that the dust has dust. And much of jazz is following in the same dusty path, recreating its glories rather than moving forward.”
Joe Zawinul
“Roll over, Beethoven, and tell Tchaikovsky the news.”
Chuck Berry
“It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense; it would be without meaning, as if you described a Beethoven symphony as a variation of wave pressure.”
Albert Einstein
