I enjoy your writing. This is the first treatise you’ve written where I feel out of touch and removed from your music professionals’ views. Perhaps a function of age and experiences?
It could be a function of age and experiences— the group represented here was a pretty narrow age range in their late 20s. Additionally, they all have the experience of going to music school, which influences their thoughts and feelings as well. I hope you were able to get something out of reading, even if it is just exposure to how a handful of other people view the world! Thank you for reading!
Pretty cool, indeed! There's sooo much to music. Probably much more profound than we dare to think (today). In this context I'd like to share this German poem from the height of the romantic period (1835) by Joseph Freiherr von Eichendorff:
A nice inside look at musical careers I was not aware of. Such insight! So many emotions. Music is my love language.
This was a fun one to put together. Thank you for reading, as always!

Dowsing Rod (translation)
A song sleeps in all things around
Which dream on and on unheard,
And the world begins to resound,
If you just hit the magic word.

Wünschelrute (original text)
Schläft ein Lied in allen Dingen,
die da träumen fort und fort
und die Welt hebt an zu singen,
triffst du nur das Zauberwort.
Thank you for this addition! A fitting poem.
