Virtuoso Quotes

I was never really a virtuoso guitar player per se Picture Quote #1

What is the best music is impossible to define. Just because it’s played by a virtuoso player, doesn’t mean it’s great music. It might not reflect the soul of a people, which is really my criteria for great music Picture Quote #1

The attraction of the virtuoso for the public is very like that of the circus for the crowd. There is always the hope that something dangerous will happen Picture Quote #1
