Bzw. ۲ ۳ ۹ [»Ité« for Violin and Organ (1994), R. A. ol-Omoum. - Inspired by Eric Allan Dolphy]

["Revelation of the Goddess", Lorena Kirk-Giannoulis]

When you hear music,

after it's over,

it's gone in the air.

You can never capture it again.

[Eric Allan Dolphy]

["After The Rain", Lorena Kirk-Giannoulis]

Music should go right through you,

leave some of itself inside you,

and take some of you with it when it leaves.

[Henry Threadgill]

["A Single Branch", Lorena Kirk-Giannoulis]

We in the Western world suffer from too many categories and classes;

we’ve forgotten that we all still have diapers on.

We’ve separated music from life.

[Ornette Coleman]

Listening is more important than anything else because that's what music is.

Somebody is playing something and you're receiving it.

It is sending and receiving.

[Carla Bley]

["Composition", Lorena Kirk-Giannoulis]

I don’t believe in categories of any kind, and when you speak of problems between blacks and whites in the U.S.A. you are referring to categories again.

[Duke Ellington]

["Nature", Lorena Kirk-Giannoulis]

What is music to you? What would you be without music? Music is everything. Nature is music (cicadas in the tropical night). The sea is music, the wind is music. The rain drumming on the roof and the storm raging in the sky are music. Music is the oldest entity. The scope of music is immense and infinite. It is the ‘esperanto’ of the world. [Duke Ellington]
