Concert Quotes

I loathe hecklers. I haven’t got a good syllable to say. When you come out of the club circuit and into the concert hall, they should be gone. There’s an element of manners that should tell you that the ticket is dear and it’s a different venue Picture Quote #1

It’s funny, but to me, when you go to a concert hall and hear electronic pieces from the 60s, I think they sound really dated. But when an orchestra plays a piece from that period, and it’s going to sound different every time, it feels more modern to me Picture Quote #1

In Bombay, we have a fine concert hall. I think it is high time we built venues in Delhi and Calcutta, not only for western music, but also Indian music. It doesn’t matter which party is in power; don’t you think the capital of India should have a concert hall? Picture Quote #1

It’s clear on the one hand that an education enriches and informs a response to beauty, even makes it possible in esoteric cases. On the other hand, there’s no question that someone with no musical education whatsoever might wander into a concert hall and be overwhelmed by the ‘Beethoven Pastoral Symphony’ Picture Quote #1

In a recording, your ear believes and accepts the trumpets as part of the ensemble, but you can’t do that in a concert hall Picture Quote #1

I’m lucky enough to be doing my dream job, but my second dream job would be to be a concert pianist Picture Quote #1

My mom’s a concert pianist, so she started teaching me when I was around seven. When I was eight, I started writing my own songs, and kinda started putting piano and singing together. But I’m trained classically, which is a big influence on me, I think Picture Quote #1

I’ve had to ban my mum from coming to see me play. She gets so nervous before any show. I’ve always got a few nerves but she’s so much worse than me. You’d think she’d be able to handle that kind of situation. After all, she is a concert pianist Picture Quote #1

I was going to be a concert pianist, and when I was in high school, my parents were scared to death that I would focus too much on that too soon. And that I’d end up in some sort of dead end, and not fulfilling whatever potential they thought I had Picture Quote #1

That’s a very high goal to have, study eight hours a day to be a concert pianist Picture Quote #1

I have been like a mediocre concert pianist playing in front of a tone-deaf family, who applaud out of duty rather than for accomplishment Picture Quote #1

By the time I was eight I was taking classical piano lessons and I wanted to be a concert pianist. But that didn’t work out. I graduated from high school and my formal education ended Picture Quote #1

When I got into all the grunge stuff, I really liked Hole. I actually saw them in concert when I was a sophomore in high school. It was kind of rare to see a successful female rocker get down and dirty with the guys. And Courtney Love did. It was fun to be a fan of something different Picture Quote #1

I’m not like a legend that - so I’m sort of in the middle in this sort of gray area where, you know, I’m creating music, and I’m not saying there isn’t an audience, because there is; because all of those people go out and spend $80 to $150 on a concert ticket Picture Quote #1

I mostly play old period songs, as they suit a ukulele more. I bought it when I saw the tribute concert to George Harrison. Joe Brown came on and sang ‘I’ll See You In My Dreams,’ and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house Picture Quote #1

Farm Aid was started in 1985 by Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp and Dave Matthews as a concert to support small local farms in the U.S Picture Quote #1

I need to do a concert to celebrate David Bowie’s electronic music. And in so doing, I’m not taking a step back, I’m taking a step forward and presenting it in its entirety so people can understand this type of visionary Picture Quote #1

If I can get that DAM trio back together again - get the band back together - and put on a concert of David Bowie’s electronic music, that’s the way I want to remember David, moving forward into the future of music Picture Quote #1

Playing a concert for 2 hours is pie. I would do that every minute of every day if I could. I love to perform. It’s the 22 hours before the next show that kills you Picture Quote #1

One of my interests is to understand what constitutes the vibe of a place and what makes one concert different from another Picture Quote #1

It is very gratifying to see the music from ‘The Lord of the Rings’ trilogy find a new life on the concert stage as it is performed by different orchestras and choruses throughout the world Picture Quote #1

You’ve got to have the right attire for the right event. I attend a lot of dinners, a lot of concerts, and I have to be on the red carpet; each has its own dress code, and I have to be prepared. Jeans and a hoodie are great for a concert, but a dinner party? Picture Quote #1

When you don’t act right to your family and friends, that’s bad, but they also have the opportunity to experience the ‘good’ side as well. Disappointing the fans is an entirely different thing because the fans love your music and save up money to see you in concert Picture Quote #1

I had just left Yes and had done a concert at Crystal Palace, South London, with a choir and orchestra playing my solo album ‘Journey To The Centre Of The Earth’ when I had my heart attack. That day, I hadn’t been to bed for four days. I don’t remember much. I felt very numb during the day and airy, which is the best way to describe it Picture Quote #1
