There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind. Classical writers may venture into classical territory, but the only yardstick by which the result should be judged is simply that of how it sounds. If it sounds good it's successful; if it doesn't it has failed. - Duke Ellington [Edward Kennedy Ellington] (1899 - 1974)

音楽には二種類しかない、良い音楽とそれ以外だ。クラシックの領域に踏み込むのもいいが、結果が判断されるべき唯一の基準は、単純にそれがどう聞こえるかということ。心地良く聞こえるなら成功；そうでないなら失敗だ。 - デューク・エリントン［エドワード・ケネディ・エリントン］ (1899 - 1974)
