All good music, whatever its date, is ageless - as alive and significant today as it was when it was written.
Peter Warlock
All old music was modern once, and much more of the music of yesterday already sounds more old-fashioned than works which were written three centuries ago.
Peter Warlock
Dates and periods are of interest only to the student of musical history.
Peter Warlock
Music is neither old nor modern: it is either good or bad music, and the date at which it was written has no significance whatever.
Peter Warlock
