La musica, intesa come espressione del mondo, è una lingua universale al massimo grado, e la sua universalità sta all’universalità dei concetti più o meno come i concetti stanno alle singole cose.

(Arthur Schopenhauer)

Dopo il silenzio, ciò che meglio descrive l’inesprimibile è la musica.

(Aldous Huxley)

La musica è una macchina per sopprimere il tempo.

(Claude Lévi-Strauss)
