About Musick

„The com­pre­hen­sion of sweet sound is our most inde­fi­nite con­cep­tion. Music, when com­bi­ned with a plea­sura­ble idea, is poe­try. Music wit­hout the idea is sim­ply music. Wit­hout music or an intri­guing idea, colour beco­mes pallor, man beco­mes car­case, home beco­mes cata­comb, and the dead are but for a moment moti­on­less.“ (Edgar Allan Poe, nach Dik­tat ver­stor­ben. Zitiert nach Alan Par­sons Pro­ject: „Tales Of Mys­tery And Ima­gi­na­tion“, 1976.)

"The comprehension of sweet sound is our most indefinite conception. Music, when combined with a pleasurable idea, is poetry. Music without the idea is simply music. Without music or an intriguing idea, colour becomes pallor, man becomes carcase, home becomes catacomb, and the dead are but for a moment motionless." (Edgar Allan Poe, nach Diktat verstorben. Zitiert nach Alan Parsons Project: "Tales Of Mystery And Imagination", 1976.)
