Music By Musicians Quotes

We have been working with Habitat for Humanity and we have built eighty homes, 80% of which are being lived in by New Orleans’ musicians. It is called the Musicians’ Village and at the center is the Ellis Marsalis Center for Music Picture Quote #1

One of the things that’s influenced me musically was my experience at Brown University. I was surrounded by musicians that I really admired, and felt challenged to come up with music, lyrics, and recordings that stood up to the expectations of those musicians and myself Picture Quote #1

Most people define themselves by what they do - ‘I’m a musician.’ Then one day it occurred to me that I’m only a musician when I’m playing music - or writing music, or talking about music. I don’t do that 24 hours a day. I’m also a father, a son, a husband, a citizen - I mean, when I go to vote, I’m not thinking of myself as ‘a musician.’ Picture Quote #1

Because the blues is the basis of most American music in the 20th century. It’s a 12-bar form that’s played by jazz, bluegrass and country musicians. It has a rhythmic vocabulary that’s been used by rock n’ roll. It’s related to spirituals, and even the American fiddle tradition Picture Quote #1

I would not want the limitations held by the name of a classical musician. I want many people to enjoy my music much beyond just classical music fans. I think the term, ‘violinist,’ keeps me distant from the audience. I want to communicate with them more Picture Quote #1

I’m inspired by artists and musicians. There are so many wonderful and talented people in the world. I love discovering new music, new writers, or new art Picture Quote #1

Musicians wake up and create a more loving community by creating heavier music Picture Quote #1

We’re genuinely happy if some musicians of this younger generation are influenced by our music, as we were ourselves influenced 10 years ago by older musicians Picture Quote #1

Even though I have often recorded alone, I still feel the best music is made by musicians playing off each other Picture Quote #1

The problem was the journalists who also did not understand much of my music, but they wrote about it. I think you fell into the usual trap laid out by parts of the press and other writers: that the poor musician has always to fight the evil companies and managers Picture Quote #1
