I wish I could score everything for horns.

One might say that where Religion becomes artificial, it is reserved for Art to save the spirit of religion.

I wish I could score everything for horns.

I know nothing at all about music.

The only form of music is melody, without melody music is not feasible, and music and melody are quite inseparable.

I believe in God, Mozart and Beethoven, and likewise their disciples and apostles; - I believe in the Holy Spirit and the truth of the one, indivisible Art; - I believe that this Art proceeds from God, and lives within the hearts of all illumined men.

I am fond of them, of the inferior beings of the abyss, of those who are full of longing.
