quotes["Pamela_Coats"] = new Array(
"For me, chamber music is the most effective way to "+
"have an opinion and know that it counts but it's not the only one that "+

"of being expressed in words.",
"-- Pamela Coats, clarinet");

quotes["Keri_Godon"] = new Array(

quotes["Joanna_Messer"] = new Array(
"The vulnerability of live performance, of musicians playing together in small "+

"Music is a form of communication which is ineffable.",
