About Me
"TRUE MUSICIANS...
They grow in wisdom... They are brilliant... They learn to do without and are prepared to make great sacrifices... enormous sacrifices... if I may say... Their energy is tremendous... In other words they are prepared for the struggle...and with honesty, they shall fight it... The performance of an Art demands complete self-denial... ...It was not meant as a joke what I just said...about sacrifices... The Music makes heavy demands upon those who want to devote themselves to it...This is what I have wanted you to call your attention to... A true musician must subordinate themselves their Art; ...they must place themselves above human suffering; ...they must draw courage from within...and only from within."Eric Satie c.1887
