Génie fou

Debussy was right. "In opera, there is always too much singing." No words could move the soul as poetically as the silence in a score.

Happy belated birthday, by the way.

(Got a little busy, but I didn't forget.)

All the best. Many happy returns.

thank you very much for the birthday wishes

"The Creation of Ea"

[xandercorp]

only in silence the word
only in dark the light
only in dying life:
bright the hawk's flight on the empty sky

Could silence ring so true, and fill the soul like water fills a deep pond, if that soul had never teemed with the rush and fury of music and song? I think not. (I guess I am just argumentative in my old age.)
