O título do livro é também o de um dos temas compostos por J. Hollenbeck para este large ensemble, inspirado nas palavras de Hazrat Inayat Khan, cantadas no concerto pelo maravilhoso Theo Bleckman, acabando assim o concerto em êxtase!
Penso que algumas das palavras, se bem me lembro, seriam estas:
"Music should be healing; music should uplift the soul; music should inspire. There is no better way of getting closer to God, of rising higher towards the spirit, of attaining spiritual perfection than music, if only it is rightly understood."
Bonito, não é?
E deixo mais estas:
"The mystery of sound is mysticism; the harmony of life is religion. The knowledge of vibrations is metaphysics, the analysis of atoms is science, and their harmonious grouping is art. The rhythm of form is poetry, and the rhythm of sound is music. This shows that music is the art of arts and the science of all sciences; and it contains the fountain of all knowledge within itself."
