The violinist is that peculiarly human phenomenon distilled to a rare potency – half tiger, half poet. – Yehudi Menuhin
I can only think of music as something inherent in every human being – a birthright. Music coordinates mind, body and spirit. – Yehudi Menuhin
The violinist must possess the poet’s gift of piercing the protective hide which grows on propagandists, stockbrokers and slave traders, to penetrate the deeper truth which lies within. – Yehudi Menuhin
Music creates order out of chaos: for rhythm imposes unanimity upon the divergent, melody imposes continuity upon the disjointed, and harmony imposes compatibility upon the incongruous. – Yehudi Menuhin
