Often a single experience will open the young soul to music for a whole lifetime

Music is nourishment, and a comforting elixir. Music multiplies the beauty of life and all its values.

To teach a child an instrument without first giving him preparatory training and without developing singing, reading and dictating to the highest level along with the playing is to build upon sand.

With music, one's whole future life is brightened. This is such a treasure in life that it helps us over many troubles and difficulties. Music is nourishment, a comforting elixir. Music multiplies all that is beautiful and of value in life.

It is our firm conviction that mankind will live the happier when it has learned to live with music more worthily. Whoever works to promote this end, in one way or another, has not lived in vain.

Often a single experience will open the young soul to music for a whole lifetime

We should read music in the same way that an educated adult will read a book: in silence, but imagining the sound.
