Wagner has lovely moments but awful quarters of an hour.
One can't judge Wagner's opera Lohengrin after a first hearing, and I certainly don't intend to hear it a second time.
Every kind of music is good, except the boring kind.
How wonderful opera would be if there were no singers.
Music is a kind of harmonious language.
The language of music is common to all generations and nations; it is understood by everybody, since it is understood with the heart.
