10 QUOTES WITH «PIANIST»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word pianist.
1
David Amram
In jazz, you listen to what the bass player is doing and what the drummer is doing, what the pianist and the guitarist is doing, and then you play something that compliments that, so you are thinking simultaneously and thinking ahead.
2
Birdy
I've had to ban my mum from coming to see me play. She gets so nervous before any show. I've always got a few nerves but she's so much worse than me. You'd think she'd be able to handle that kind of situation. After all, she is a concert pianist.
3
Birdy
My mom's a concert pianist, so she started teaching me when I was around seven. When I was eight, I started writing my own songs, and kinda started putting piano and singing together. But I'm trained classically, which is a big influence on me, I think.
4
Daniel Breaker
Classical pianist Awadagin Pratt. I first heard this eccentric and introverted performer when I was living in the Midwest. He was playing Brahms ballades - haunting.
5
Dave Brubeck
Do you think Duke Ellington didn't listen to Debussy? Louis Armstrong loved opera, did you know that? Name me a jazz pianist who wasn't influenced by European music!
6
Carla Bruni
My mother was a classical pianist and my stepfather was an industrialist who was passionate about composing contemporary music.
7
Jeff Buckley
The people who raised me musically are my mother, who is a classically trained pianist, and my stepfather.
8
Harold Budd
I'm not really a pianist.

10
Cy Coleman
I decided during my teens that I wasn't going to have the life of a concert pianist, much to the chagrin of a lot of people who had put a lot of money into me!
