Music Quotes

There is nothing in the world so much like prayer as music is. 

-William P. Merrill

Early pianists rarely performed on large stages, and piano recitals were nonexistent. But from the 1830s right up to the First World War, concert pianists on both sides of the Atlantic were the pop idols of their day and their love affairs the talk of society. Piano teachers were ten a penny (how times change!), and of their even more numerous pupils it is said that ninety percent would themselves become teachers!
