Quotes by Daniel Barenboim (?)

“Every great work of art has two faces: one toward its own time and one toward the future, toward eternity.”
― Daniel Barenboim, Parallels and Paradoxes: Explorations in Music and Society

“I believe in the understanding of difficult situations, difficult music, or any kind of difficulties, through familiarity. Familiarity, in this case, does not breed contempt, but breeds understanding.”
― Daniel Barenboim, Edward W. Said

“Wer beruflich mit Musik zu tun hat, müsste dazu erzogen werden, Sinn dafür zu entwickeln, sich auch vielen anderen Wissensbereichen zuzuwenden, die nicht direkt mit Musik zu tun haben. Die technische Beherrschung eines Instruments, die für einen Berufsmusiker wesentlich ist, hat nur dann einen Sinn, wenn sie mit einem allgemeinen Erkenntnisprozess einhergeht, zu dem eine breite Basis von Wissen und Kultur gehören.”
― Daniel Barenboim, Musik ist alles und alles ist Musik: Erinnerungen und Einsichten
