A Composition on the Piano

Music is an agreeable harmony for the honor of God and the permissible delights of the soul.

I play the notes as they are written, but it is God who makes the music.

I worked hard. Anyone who works as hard as I did can achieve the same results.

I worked hard. Anyone who works as hard as I did can achieve the same results. The final aim and reason of all music is nothing other than the glorification of God and the refreshment of the spirit.

Ah! How sweet coffee tastes! Lovelier than a thousand kisses, sweeter far than muscatel wine!

The aim and final end of all music should be none other than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul.
