Sometimes I can only groan,
and suffer, and pour out
my despair at the piano !
~Frederic Chopin
and suffer, and pour out
my despair at the piano !
~Frederic Chopin
Nevertheless the passions, whether violent or not, should never be so expressed as to reach the point of causing disgust; and music, even in situations of the greatest horror, should never be painful to the ear but should flatter and charm it, and thereby always remain music.
~Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
