Musicality Quotes By Suzanne Farrell

Fifth positions, heads, musicality, energy. Not technical things so much-getting your leg higher or doing more turns but things that would set you apart from other dancers.

Musicality Quotes By Bradley Cooper

Anything has a rhythm to it, comedy or drama. There has to be a musicality to it. And everybody can't play the same instrument, ideally. But I think that we all have the same comedic tendencies, and that's why it works. We all sort of agree with what's funny. — Bradley Cooper

Musicality Quotes By Jimmy Heath

It's the hardest thing for a young player to develop. At the same time a young player also has to deliver their musicality to the audience. I'm still developing my own sound, because you can never know all the music. — Jimmy Heath

I love the musicality of English. French sounds flat. In English, you can play with pitch. — Eva Green

Musicality Quotes By Tori Kelly

I think, for me, the goal was never really for my EPs to go mainstream. I think the intention of them was to create a little bit of buzz and to show my musicality because I wrote and produced the EPs myself. The goal was to experiment, with no rules. — Tori Kelly

...for every Aretha, there's a chorus of cat-stranglers. — Bill Eisele

Musicality Quotes By Andrei Makine

I have just awoken, having dreamed of music. The final chord fades away within me while I try to focus on individuals amid the living, breathing mass packed into this vast waiting room, in this mixture of sleep and weariness. — Andrei Makine

Musicality Quotes By Timothy Schaffert

A Lutheran church in Nebraska is typically a place where any mad passion for Christ is politely concealed. Men and women recite the various creeds in hypnotic monotone; the hymns, pumped from wheezy organ pipes, are sung with no lilt or musicality. The members of the choirs not only don't dance, they don't sway. That's not to say no one is ever smacked hard with God's love or filled up to the eyeballs with the Holy Spirit, but when you are, you keep it to yourself. (48) — Timothy Schaffert

Musicality Quotes By Rayvon Owen

My songwriting and overall approach to music go beyond just good singing and strong musicality - I want people, now more so than ever, to feel something and be moved somehow by the content I create. — Rayvon Owen

Musicality Quotes By Brian Eno

Reggie Watts is a most unusual talent: a huge vocal range, a natural musicality, and a sidesplitting wit. Is he a comedian? A singer? A performance artist? I've seen him a few times since then and I still can't decide. Whatever, he ain't like nobody else. — Brian Eno

Musicality Quotes By Paul Lisicky

I talk about it a lot to my students. Musicality never came up in any of own writing education, and I can see why - we don't have the vocabulary for it. Phrasing is intuitive, and its difficult to articulate when it's on and when it's not. — Paul Lisicky

Musicality Quotes By Bocafloja

I believe the advantage music has is the capacity to multiply itself, the capacity to keep itself in space and access itself at different times and in different processes and to make profound analyses, analyses that through musicality would be able to connect with people who don't necessarily have the energy or wish in any exact moment to connect to well-read or critical analysis. — Bocafloja

Musicality Quotes By Ted Nugent

I'm aware of Yusef Lateef and Sun Ra and John Coltrane. My music cup runneth over. I try to encourage people: don't cut anything off, don't limit yourself. Give it a good listen: you might find something in that goofy Sun Ra noise, that dissonance. Before I learned 'official musicality' - which you should avoid at all costs - I listened to some Sun Ra and Yusef Lateef and John Coltrane and that's where 'Journey to the Center of the Mind' came from. When you intentionally and aggressively pursue musical communication with those powerfully impactful musical geniuses, you will pick up something. — Ted Nugent

Musicality Quotes By Munia Khan

You cannot taste a song
but you can feel the tune relishing your heart
where strings of music belong. — Munia Khan

Musicality Quotes By Toni Collette

Also, I think having a musicality about me that helps in identifying different things in languages and getting them right. — Toni Collette

Musicality Quotes By Scott Jarrett

This practical musicality was a comprehensive craft that involved thinking creatively and realizing it in sound. Music meant more than merely following instructions. The rote repetition of other people's music, including Bach's own, was used as example and was not the end itself. Students were encouraged to alter scores by adding notes, reducing the time value of notes, dropping notes, and changing or adding ornamentation, dynamics, and so on. One couldn't even get into Bach's teaching studio without first showing some rudimentary composing ability. — Scott Jarrett

Musicality Quotes By Ralph McTell

I am very impressed by The Carrivick Sisters, one of the best young duos I've heard. The girls sing and play as one and their work is characterised by great musicality. They are not only very talented instrumentalists and singers but they write really good songs as well. — Ralph McTell

Musicality Quotes By Lupe Fiasco

Reggae, oh man. It's the ultimate music. The positivity. The musicality. The whole cultural expressionism of it. The danceability. Just the cool factor. The melody factor. Some of it comes from a religious place. If there were a competition of who makes the best religious music, it would definitely be the Rastafarian reggae. — Lupe Fiasco

Musicality Quotes By Paul McCartney

I think I always had a musicality, and I think I could tell a good song from a bad song. And I would appreciate hearing something that was new to me. — Paul McCartney

Musicality Quotes By Robert Downey Jr.

I would say that among my many huge emotional miscalculations was my taking a film career for granted. It is the most awesome privilege to be able to use one's imagination and wit, physicality and musicality, conscious brain and unconscious instinct in the service of a work that has a chance to move and excite and amuse and delight people all over the world, including long after we're dead. What a noble calling! And I felt it was just there for me as a kind of given, some sort of inherited birthright-when in reality it's the most magnificent luxury. — Robert Downey Jr.

Musicality Quotes By John Otto

Jazz was more of a tool for me to use to enhance my musicality. — John Otto

Musicality Quotes By Russell Brand

I do have a regard for the musicality of language that came from BBC sitcoms like 'Fawlty Towers.' — Russell Brand

Musicality Quotes By Alison Hawthorne Deming

Poetry is a really helpful instrument. It's so physical; the musicality becomes a sort of expression of the body. The mind is there too, in the formal aspects of the poem. The emotions are there in the way the senses gather things into the poem. — Alison Hawthorne Deming

Musicality Quotes By Steven Van Zandt

The Rascals are something else. They're up there with the Beatles, and Stones and Byrds. That level of musicality. They have a real chemistry. It is like magic. — Steven Van Zandt

Musicality Quotes By Marlon James

A lot of time, I'd spell things in standard English instead of phonetically because I want people to understand what's going on. It's also very lyrical, and the great thing about lyrical prose is even when you're not totally sure of the words, you can be swayed by the musicality of it. — Marlon James

Musicality Quotes By Philip Selway

Anything that broadens your musicality always moves the way you write drum or guitar parts. — Philip Selway

Musicality Quotes By Christian Campbell

Of course I can appreciate the musicality of the pieces and sometimes the lyrics are generic enough to be listened to without reference, but I often feel cheated if I don't know what the hell is making this person burst out into song. — Christian Campbell

Musicality Quotes By Anette Prehn

Musicality means openness to what is present and what is desired, the ability to make the most of what is currently here. — Anette Prehn

Musicality Quotes By Peter Sloterdijk

A completely different aspect, however, the thoroughly incommensurable one, lies in the imposition of accepting that the torso sees me while I observe it - indeed, that it eyes me more sharply than I can look at it.
The ability to perform the inner gesture with which one makes space for this improbability inside oneself most probably consists precisely in the talent that Max Weber denied having. This talent is 'religiosity', understood as an innate disposition and a talent that can be developed, making it comparable to musicality. One can practise it, just as one practises melodic passages or syntactic patterns. In this sense, religiosity is congruent with a certain grammatical promiscuity. Where it operates, objects elastically exchange places with subjects. — Peter Sloterdijk

Musicality Quotes By Mal Peet

I was taking my first uncertain steps towards writing for children when my own were young. Reading aloud to them taught me a great deal when I had a great deal to learn. It taught me elementary things about rhythm and pace, the necessary musicality of text. — Mal Peet

Musicality Quotes By Gary Burton

Without doubt, the foremost band for decades has been the One O'Clock Lab Band at the University of North Texas. Through its many incarnations and under various leaders, they have demonstrated the highest qualities of musicianship imaginable, plus a willingness to balance their big band tradition with creative exploration. Astounding ensemble work, insightful interpretations of the arrangements, imaginative writing, and above all, a loving attention to musicality ... these people play beautifully. — Gary Burton

Musicality Quotes By Trent Reznor

The band Grizzly Bear, I think they're excellent. There's a beauty and a musicality there that I wish would have been in vogue in the late '80s, when I was forming bands. — Trent Reznor

Musicality Quotes By The Unknown

Music is a language that speaks to people emotions. — The Unknown

Musicality Quotes By Bob Brookmeyer

A pianist with skill, touch, musicality and a gift for making songs from songs. Plus, he can swing! Give a listen — Bob Brookmeyer

Musicality Quotes By Talib Kweli

I think people are into me because of my music choices and my musicality. — Talib Kweli

Musicality Quotes By David Belle

Parkour is not just linear. There are moments that are intense and some that are lesser, so you have to move from one to another, and that becomes the musicality of Parkour. — David Belle

Musicality Quotes By Andrew Clements

And I love Jane Austen's use of language too
the way she takes her time to develop a phrase and gives it room to grow, so that these clever, complex statements form slowly and then bloom in my mind. Beethoven does the same thing with his cadence and phrasing and structure. It's a fact: Jane Austen is musical. And so's Yeats. And Wordsworth. All the great writers are musical. — Andrew Clements

Musicality Quotes By Lizzo

Minneapolis just embraced me. There are a lot of weirdos here. It's awesome, because I'm a weirdo. Thankfully, the city embraced me with open arms. A lot about Minneapolis helped carve my musicality and open my eyes. The whole town is so open-minded compared to like, you know, Texas. — Lizzo

Musicality Quotes By William Shatner

I love the musicality of words. — William Shatner

Musicality Quotes By Q-Tip

Musicality Quotes By Liza Minnelli

Working with Dudley Moore was so hilarious. I don't know how we got anything done because everybody was laughing so hard, but he was such a wonderful man, and he had a kindness and a musicality and a dearness to him that was triumphant. — Liza Minnelli

Musicality Quotes By K.J. Kilton

If you are trully in a place that is way from the noise of civilization,you can actually experience what real slience is about.It is filled with sounds of nature.There is a musicality,a harmony to it... — K.J. Kilton

Musicality Quotes By Ted Nugent

I stand humbled on bended knee but, of course, the response to that would be 'Duh!' And to be given that incredible honor means that I represent the piss and vinegar, the energy, the defiance, the musicality of the Funk Brothers and Motown and Mitch Ryder and Bob Seger, Brownsville Station and Grand Funk Railroad and Eminem and Jack White and Kid Rock - are you kidding me? — Ted Nugent

Musicality Quotes By Oliver Sacks

I had no room now for this fear, or for any other fear, because I was filled to the brim with music. And even when it was not literally (audibly) music, there was the music of my muscle-orchestra playing - "the silent music of the body," in Harvey's lovely phrase. With this playing, the musicality of my motion, I myself became the music - "You are the music, while the music lasts." A creature of muscle, motion and music, all inseparable and in unison with each other - except for that unstrung part of me, that poor broken instrument which could not join in and lay motionless and mute without tone or tune. — Oliver Sacks
