The Deeper Musical Sense

The outer phenomena that accompany change in the environment – displayed by the structural changes of the musical sound-space –

5. 7, 8, 6. 11, 7. 12, 8. 13, 9. 14, 10. 17, 18, 15. 25, 16. 26, 17. 29, 30

are, due to his natural distance to the environment, less intimate to the individual and therefore less important than the variations of his own character, than the inner play of his qualities which are displayed in the applied motif-technique – in the melody.

To the listener
4. 5, 5. 6, 10. 19, 11. 20, 17. 31, 18. 32

therefore, the tone, or the series of tones performed is far less important than their underlying, deeper musical meaning.
