And indeed, we know from experience that singing has great strength and power to move and to set our hearts on fire in order that we may call upon G-d and praise him with a more vehement and more ardent zeal. Truly fertile Music, the only kind that will move us, that we shall truly appreciate, will be a Music conducive to Dream, which banishes all reason and analysis. One must not wish first to understand and then to feel. Art does not tolerate Reason. It brings us near to the infinite.
Music gives peace to the restless, and comforts the sorrowful.
They who no longer know where to turn find new ways, and those who have despaired gain new confidence and love. The heart of the melody can never be put on paper. All music jars when the soul's out of tune. Every action of our lives touches on some chord that will vibrate in eternity. Art is the triumph over chaos.
