Quotes by Charles Rosen (?)

“A love of classical music is only partially a natural response to hearing the works performed; it also must come about by a decision to listen carefully, to pay close attention, a decision inevitably motivated by the cultural and social prestige of the art.”

“A cough is the basic sign of inattention. Musicians never, in my experience, cough when playing in public.”

“To appreciate a new and difficult style, as I have said, takes an act of will, a decision to experience it again.”
