“The virtuous to those mansions go Where pleasures unembitter'd flow, Where, leading up a jocund band, Vigor and Youth dance hand in hand, Whilst Zephyr, with harmonious gales, Pipes softest music through the vales, And Spring and Flora, gaily crown'd, With velvet carpet spread the ground; With livelier blush where roses bloom, And every shrub expires perfume.” HandsPleasureVirtueYouthBandSpringFlowRoseSpreadVirtuousCrownsPerfumeCarpetPipeHarmoniousHand In HandVigorMansionsVelvetGaleFloraShrubsZephyr Book:The Ghost Source: The Ghost
“Music originally had a social function. You were in church, in a concert hall, a marching band; you were dancing. I'm concerned that music could be too separated from its roots and just become a pleasure-giving experience, like a drug.” GivingSocialChurchPleasureDrugBandConcernedRootsFunctionDancingHallsConcertsMarching Band Author:Oliver Sacks
“There are so many parts of music that it's actually a pleasure for me to work with an orchestra, or a jazz band, or a choir, and use every element that the musical tool box can offer.

“It is a great pleasure to be performing with a big band. Those people took part in a group that played the music from the Kino Kultura album i.e. the soundtrack music I've been doing. It is difficult to organise them all and to have those people for a certain date since they all have their own obligations and arrangements. It is a great privilege to gather all those musicians at one place, especially these that I work with, since they perform regularly abroad, at weddings or are working somewhere else.” PeopleBigsCertainDifficultPleasureGroupsBandMusicianPrivilegeAlbumsObligationPerformingArrangementsSomewhere ElseSoundtracks Author:Vlatko Stefanovski
“I got Joan Baez to talk and Alan Ginsberg and some of the guys in the band. And by the end of the piece, another emissary came and said, `Bob [Dylan] is willing to speak to you now.' And I said with great pleasure, `No, thanks. The piece is over.'” SaidEndsGuySpeakPleasurePiecesWillingBandThanksBobDylanGinsberg Author:Nat Hentoff
