“The bar... is an exercise in solitude. Above all else, it must be quiet, dark, very comfortable-and, contrary to modern mores, no music of any kind, no matter how faint. In sum, there should be no more than a dozen tables, and a client that doesn't like to talk.” ShouldKindMatterDarkMusicModernExerciseSolitudeQuietComfortableTablesAlcoholContraryBarsDozen Author:Luis Bunuel

“I only knew classical music, which to me was the only true music. The only way I could survive at the bar was to mix the classical music with popular songs, and that meant I had to sing. What happened was that I discovered I had a voice plus the talent to mix classical music together with more popular songs, which at the time I detested.” WayTogetherSongVoiceMusicHappenedTalentBarsPlusClassical MusicPopular Song Author:Nina Simone
