  • And in regard to this Beethoven says clearly enough:



    “Showing kindness whenever one can!
    Loving freedom above anything else!
    Never denying the truth!”

    Beethoven



    Today it can be proven by scientific means when in the sense of our great classical composers no actual music sounds: no living music: just stillbirths: “earth”, “dirt” and “dust” as Beethoven unmistakably calls it. Therefore each practitioner should quickly start exploring ways and means to improve the musical effectiveness, to become more credible and, above all, to participate in accomplishing performances that meet the demands of our great classical tone creators: performances which convey the revelation.



    “I must despise a world
    which has no idea
    that music is a greater revelation
    than all wisdom and philosophy.”

    Beethoven



    “Just like thousands
    for the sake of love marry,
    and love in these thousands
    reveals itself not even once,
    although they all pursue the craft of love,
    so thousands pursue an intercourse with the music,
    and yet do not have its revelation.”

    Beethoven



    “To be dissolved
    by its revelation,
    that is devotion
    to the Divine,
    which quietly practises
    its domination
    on the rage of untamed powers.”

    Beethoven



    Let me know your opinion.

    With kind regards

    Peter Hübner
