I never played a musical instrument growing up but I knew kids who did and took it very seriously.
In musical theater you have to be very big and very animated, while film and television are more toned down.
Hi, I am Matt Bellamy and I am in a band called Muse and we play Music
An ordinary place turns into an extraordinary place when visited by a good music! Earthly place becomes celestial!
To live is to be musical, starting with the blood dancing in your veins. Everything living has a rhythm. Do you feel your music?
We are increasingly likely to find ourselves in places with background music. No composers have thought to write for these modern spaces, which represent 30% of our musical experience.
I feel like before I came to the planet I asked God for the gift of music. I didn't want to come here without the gift of music and God granted it to me.
Music was an experience, intimately married to your life. You could pay to hear music, but after you did, it was over, gone - a memory.
But without the experience of actually singing or playing these things yourself, you don't have the same kind of involvement or understanding of what these musical moves mean. And that is a very big problem in addressing the future of music.
Certainly one of the more common experiences in the jazz field is discovering someone new. Improvising musicians are capable of being musical travelers, voyagers. We want to join in on whatever we hear. There is a freedom to wander the musical landsc...
When I was younger, I was listening to a lot of Armenian music, you know, revolutionary music about freedom and protest. In the 70s I was listening to soul and the Bee Gees and ABBA, and funk.
Although I enjoyed writing Film Music it was always a means to an end, in that it enabled me to keep a wife and family and write my classical music, which has always been my passion.
The big thing in my family growing up is that everybody had to play a musical instrument. We were like the von Trapps.
The awesomeness of God is that even in the works of the Beach Boys, Beatles, etc., the beauty of the music is a mere reflection of what God does everyday. He creates music of all kinds and moods.
Baalbek is so beautiful. It is the heart of beauty in the Middle East - I want to embrace these people with my music. I will try so hard for them. Their president is a Christian, their prime minister is a Muslim. Music is for everyone.
To me, part of the beauty of a comma is that it offers a rest, like one in music: a break that gives the whole piece of music greater shape, deeper harmony. It allows us to catch our breath.
When I started working on my own music, I didn't have the chance to record in a big music studio, so I had to record everything myself.
I'm a musical theater guy. That's where I came from. That's where I go whenever I have the chance. It's my first love.
I love Cher Lloyd's music. I didn't actually hear her music as I was creating my own, but it's cool that we have styles that are considered to be similar.
I mean, what is music anyway? It's a form of communication - at least for me it is. And that's why I play the kind of music that I think - that I hope - can communicate with people.
I like to make the music that I really love. You're supposed to make your favorite music that no one else played, and I'd like to just keep it at that and not really change it at all.
