“As concisely as possible, this is it: [M]usic has intrinsic
meanings of its own, which are not to be confused with
specific feelings or moods, and certainly not with pictorial
impressions or stories. These intrinsic musical meanings
are generated by a constant stream of metaphors, all of
which are forms of poetic transformations. This is our
thesis.”
– Leonard Bernstein
