"Constant as the movement of a clock, she ran her course; and the sTRANGE mUSIC, at each repetition of the tune, gave a new impulse to the dance, recommencing and again rushing off as at first.""Wilhelm was quite led away by this singular spectacle; he forgot his cares; he followed every movement of the dear little creature, and felt surprised to see how finely her character unfolded itself as she proceeded in the dance."

the sTRANGE mUSIC"Other loves may sink and settle,
other loves may loose and slack,
But I wander like a minstrel
with a harp upon my back,
Though the harp be on my bosom,
though I finger and I fret,
Still, my hope is all before me;
for I cannot play it yet.In your strings is hid a mUSIC
that no hand hath e'er let fall,
In your soul is sealed a pleasure
that you have not known at all;
Pleasure subtle as your spirit,
sTRANGE and slender as your frame,
Fiercer than the pain that folds you,
softer than your sorrow's name.Not as mine, my soul's annointed,
not as mine the rude and light
Easy mirth of many faces,
swaggering pride of song and fight;
Something stranger, something sweeter,
something waiting you afar,
Secret as your stricken senses,
magic as your sorrows are.But on this, God's harp supernal,
stretched but to be stricken once,
Hoary time is a beginner,
Life a bungler, Death a dunce.
But I will not fear to match them
- no by God, I will not fear,
I will learn you, I will play you
and the stars stand still to hear."G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936)

"Any great work of mUSIC … revives and readapts time and space, and the measure of its success is the extent to which it makes you an inhabitant of that world-the extent to which it invites you in and lets you breathe its sTRANGE, special air."--- Leonard Bernstein

"It is sTRANGE to see pop musician with sitars. I was confused at first. It has so little to do with our classical mUSIC. When he came to me, I didn't know what to think. But I found he really wanted to learn. I'd never thought our meeting would cause such an explosion that Indian music would suddenly appear on the pop scene. It's particuliar but, out of this, a dear interest grew."Ravi Shankar ---

"Don't blink.""mUSIC history is being made right now. In front of you, behind you, down the street, around the corner, before your very eyes. New composers are putting things together in all sorts of sTRANGE ways, and new audiences are figuring out how to listen to them."

"HARK! some wild trumpeter - some sTRANGE mUSICIAN,
Hovering unseen in air, vibrates capricious tunes to-night.I hear thee, trumpeter-listening, alert, I catch thy notes,
Now pouring, whirling like a tempest round me,
Now low, subdued-now in the distance lost."Walt Whitman

"Other early engravings are more fantastic and less significant of cruelty. A common one shows us a dozen cats, Angoras, toms, blacks and whites, seated before a music desk on which the Solfege of Italy in oblong form lies open. The notes, however, are replaced by mice, their tails indicating the crotchets and quavers. Teniers drew a similar scene but added an owl as director and a monkey flute player. In Andrew Lang's version of "The White Cat" the Prince visits a luxurious apartment "upon the walls of which were painted the histories of Puss in Boots and a number of other famous cats. The table was laid for supper ... when suddenly in came about a dozen cats, carrying guitars and rolls of music, who took their places at one end of the room, and under the direction of a cat who beat time with a roll of paper, began to mew in every imaginable key, and to draw their claws against the strings of the guitars, making the sTRANGEST kind of mUSIC that could be heard. The Prince hastily stopped up his ears; but even then the sight of these comical musicians sent him into fits of laughter." Even in nursery rhymes the cat has standing as a virtuoso. One of the most familiar speaks of "the cat and the fiddle."J. O. Halliwell gives:
"A cat came fiddling out of a barn,
With a pair of bagpipes under her arm."
Carl Van Vechten

"There is something about mUSIC that keeps its distance even at the moment that it engulfs us. It is at the same time outside and away from us and inside and part of us. In one sense it dwarfs us, and in another we master it. We are led on and on, and yet in some sTRANGE way we never lose control."Aaron Copland

"When I had my last breakdown" - she spoke of it as a sturdy, gallant feat."The doctors told me" - her voice sang on a confidential note - "that if any man alive had done the consistent drinking that I have, he would have been physically shattered, my dear, and in his grave, long in his grave."
Amory winced, and wondered how this would have sounded to Froggy Parker.
"Yes," continued Beatrice tragically, "I had dreams, wonderful visions." She pressed the palms of her hands into her eyes. "I saw bronze rivers lapping marble shores, and great birds that soared through the air, parti-colored birds with iridescent plumage. I heard sTRANGE mUSIC and the flare of barbaric trumpets... what?"
Amory had snickered.

"Now young people /17-19 years old/ are listening to the music that other people call 'sTRANGE'. These people's parents think that their children do something bad. But this is not so."
"sTRANGE mUSIC is music that music thet you can't hear on TV or Radio during the day and this music is not for everybody. It's published in small number of copies and you can buy it only in the specials stores. Also it's call 'Undergroung'. This is good, because people don't create this kind of music for their profit. That's why this music is interesting.
"Young people like to be original. Original means to wear originally, to listen to origilnal music... Music is the second thing for many young people. And listening to this kind of music they show that they have their own look on the world, they try to discover it by yourselves thru the music.
"That's why it's good to young people listen to it. They maybe forget about it when they will grow up, but the influence will stay and they will not think about arts as about comercial thing.

"sTRANGE mUSIC in my ears,
Only now as you spoke did it start,
sTRANGE mUSIC of the sphere,
Could its lovely hum be coming from my heart?
You appear and I hear song sublime,
Song that I'm incapable of,
So dear, let me hold you near,
While we treasure every measure,So that time can never change
The sTRANGE new mUSIC of love.
You appear and I hear song sublime,
Song that I'm incapable of,
So dear, let me hold you near,
While we treasure every measure,
So that time can never change
The sTRANGE new mUSIC of love."
