Paul has more, I think, of a feel for the stage. Whereas I have it more for the notes themselves. I love record making and mixing, arranging, producing. That I love. I love to make beautiful things, but I don't like to perform.
Art Garfunkel

Potentially significant, by the way, because we don't know exactly what's in Matt Cooper's notes, and we don't know - and we don't still know the answer to the crucial question of whether it was Rove or somebody else that revealed Valerie Plame's name to him.
Michael Isikoff

Right now, my voice is better than ever. It changed. I have better low notes than I had before.
Eydie Gorme

Scholarship was one thing, drudgery another. I very soon concluded that nothing would induce me to read, let alone make notes on, hundreds and hundreds of very, very, very boring books.
Simon Raven

Session work makes you more strict. You can't hit notes all over the place. You've got to make each one really count.
Ritchie Blackmore

She goes on the set with headphones and gives you notes. She's terrific and I always run to her now, because she is just great to work with, as well as very good at different accents.
Albert Finney

Silk Road to Ruin has all the analysis and it's structured very well. I rely on my notes more and I use direct quotes. But there's nothing like writing about it right away.
Ted Rall

Simplicity is the final achievement. After one has played a vast quantity of notes and more notes, it is simplicity that emerges as the crowning reward of art.
Frederic Chopin

Since in music we deal with notes, not words, with chords, with transitions, with color and expression, the musical meaning always based on those notes as written and nothing else - has to be divined.
Claude Arrau

Sometimes I write notes that I have difficulty singing.
Elvis Costello

Sometimes songwriters and singers forget that. They get a melody in their head and the notes will take precedence, so that they wind up forcing a word onto a melody. It doesn't ring true.
Don Henley

Sometimes that's a year, sometimes it's 18 months, where all I'm doing is taking notes. I'm reconstructing the story from the back to the front so that I know where the front is.
John Irving

Speech is an arrangement of notes that will never be played again.
F. Scott Fitzgerald

Suprisingly, one of the most complex pieces of code is the code to determine where a note is in the staff. Finale stores notes as relative scale positions in the current key.
Robert Patterson

Talking about covers, whether visually or sonically, if a particular combination of notes struck a chord in your heart in a way that you want to be a part of it by covering that song, then there's nothing wrong with it.
Ville Valo

That's what it is that you rehearse - the making of music, not the playing of notes as abstractions.
Sarah Caldwell

The ballet embodies the notes of music. And sometimes you almost feel like you can see the notes dance up there on the stage.
Robert Caro

The beauty of it is when you can just show up and hit the notes.
John Lone

The great leaders are like the best conductors - they reach beyond the notes to reach the magic in the players.
Blaine Lee

The musicians recommend that I sing a sing the way it is written the first time and then start to look for other notes that aren't in the melody.
Margaret Whiting
