– Author Unknown
Music is the poetry of the air.
– Richter

– H.A. Overstreet
My idea is that there is music in the air, music all around us; the world is full of it, and you simply take as much as you require.
– Edward Elgar
Music cleanses the understanding; inspires it, and lifts it into a realm which it would not reach if it were left to itself.
– Henry Ward Beecher
Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence.
