"...I should like to say that the true harmony of music comes from the harmony of the soul. That music alone can be called real which comes from the harmony of the soul, its true source, and when it comes from there it must appeal to all souls...It would no longer be an exaggeration if i said that music alone can be the means by which souls of races, nations, and families, which are today so apart, may one day be united...Music is not expressed through language but through the beauty of rhythm and tone which reach far beyond language"
