More From Gian Carlo Menotti

Quality doesn't mean deep blacks and whatever tonal range. that's not quality, that's a kind of quality. the pictures of robert frank might strike someone as being sloppy-the tone range isn't right and things like that-but they're far superior to the pictures of ansel adams with regard to quality, because the quality of ansel adams, if i may say so, is essentially the quality of a postcard. but the quality of robert frank is a quality that has something to do with what he's doing, what his mind is. it's not balancing out the sky to the sand and so forth. it's got to do with intention.

Melodies can be good depending on the context. you can have a simple melody, and if the harmony behind it is interesting, it can make a very simple melody really different. you can also have a complex melody. the more complex it is, the harder it is to sing, and then sometimes it can sound contrived. you could write a melody that would be fine on a saxophone but if you give it to a singer, it can sound raunchy.

I knew a lot of chords, but they weren't the chords that came with the melody that came with the idea i had for the song. melodies are simple things. if you see a train wreck, there's a melody. if you see a little daisy blowing in the breeze, there's a melody.
Song Writing Simple

Heart Way Language
At least, not in this country,' she added after a moment's thought. 'in china it's a little different. once i saw a chinaman in shanghai. his ears were so big he could use them for a raincoat. when it rained, he just crept in under his ears and was warm and snug as could be. not that the ears had such a rattling good time of it, you understand. if it was specially bad weather, he'd invite friends and acquaintances to pitch camp under his ears too. there they sat, singing their sorrowful songs while it poured down outside.

I never endorsed donald trump or any of the candidates who are running for the nomination that would make them the leader of their party. i said of mr. trump that i give him credit as the only one who stood in front of "some" members of the jewish community and told them he did not need or want their money. this was very big because any man who is able to stand on his own is free enough to do what is in the best interest of the country. that is what i said and that is what i meant.

I think we're on the wrong path in this country and have been for a while. people are in their camps divided by region, economic situation, race, religion, ideology. and there's a lot of just staying in your camp using technology to bolster your case without actually debating with other people, without discussing.

And where is the prince who can afford to so cover his country with troops for its defense, as that ten thousand men descending from the clouds, might not in many places do an infinite deal of mischief, before a force could be brought together to repel them?
