Quotes About Basso

Hear you, then, the voice of your brothers and sisters, deep as the seas, as timeless, as restless, and as fierce. Tenors spear the clouds with blades that had their keenness from the silversmiths of heaven. Baritones pour gold, and royal contralto mounts to reach the lowest note of garlanded soprano. And under all, basso profundo bends his mighty back to carry all wherever melody shall take them. Sing then, Son of Man, and know that in your voice Almighty God may find His dearest pleasure.
~ Richard Llewellyn
What do you wish And was astonished, not recognizing his own voice. And what was said in a treble; the do you in a basso; and wish did not come out at all. (85)
~ Mikhail Bulgakov
