. . . Music as mathematics,
music as architecture or
as image, music in any static, seizable form has always held fascination
for the lay mind. But as a musician, what fascinates me is the thought
that by its very nature music invites imaginative treatment, and that the
facts of music, so called, are only meaningful insofar as the imagination
is given free play. . . .
Aaron Copland
