John Eaton quotes
" Again, you know, I wanted to keep a non-narrative approach to theater involved as well. "

John Eaton
" And although I've composed a lot of chamber music and a lot of orchestral music, I am fundamentally interested in opera and I believe that more than anything else, microtonality extends expressive possibilities, particularly for the voice. "

John Eaton
" And I think now, for many composers... the use of microtonality has become a necessity. "

John Eaton
" Because after all, music, of all the arts, is that that most begins with the fundamental basis of the universe itself. "

John Eaton
" But nevertheless, it's music ultimately that matters in opera, and opera is a piece of music reaching out as a vision in sound reaching out to the world. "

John Eaton
" However, like the ancient Greek dramas, I want both sides of the brain to be open, you know, I want it to be a full experience. "

John Eaton
" However, yes, especially as one gets older, you know, you really hope that your music will become more generally available, even though some of the performances might be riddled with faults. "

John Eaton
" I haven't been very much involved with any kind of puristic approach, nor have I been particularly concerned with finding a system that I could teach, or a system that would be consistent. "

John Eaton
" I mean, the 7th, the flat 7th which approaches the 7th harmonic, very often comes off sounding like the cry of a frightened child. "

John Eaton
" I really write for people. "

John Eaton
" I supported myself all during my 20's as a jazz musician, or rather, as a performer, of both contemporary music and jazz. "

John Eaton
" I think a lot of composers get into trouble just making up a plot and expecting an audience to follow that. "

John Eaton
" I think I was first to do live performances on a modern electronic sound synthesizer. "

John Eaton
" I think one of the greatest enemies in the use of technology, however, is the idea that if you use the technology you have to throw other things out of the window. "

John Eaton
" I think our culture lost a great, great opportunity when it didn't do more with opera for television in the early years. "
