im doing a commemorative speech on the thrill of playing music on stage. I need quotes from artists that describe there feelings and experiences.

Answer 1

Search on the Internet. I make a game of how to get my answers in the quickest amount of time possible.

There is the Yahoo search engine on this page or google.com.

For example, I simply typed in: musicians performance experience quotes and received 1,100,000 hits.

“The best performance experience I ever had in my life was on stage with Paul Helou. The performance consisted of Paul improvising guitar music to my monologues, interspersed with my dancing to his music while he sang his songs. I literally forgot who was initiating the entertainment. Was it the audience? Was it Paul? Was it me? We were all involved in one grand, transcendent experience. It made no literal sense, but it was magical. Then again, when does magic ever make sense?” --Libby Skala, performer/writer, Lilia!

What comprises good performance? The ability through singing or playing to make the ear conscious of the true content and affect of a composition.

Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach
Versuch (1753)


Try typing in different words and you will find the quotes you are search for. Good luck.

Answer 2

I would start with Biography and a program called "The Actors Studio". You could also try musicians you know....my ex has worked with a lot famous jazz guys....they all had that first time and most still get nervous.
