Now as to the law of music which exists in different nations, there are of course differences of method, but in the conception of beauty there is no difference. The differences come when the music is man-made; there is no difference in the soul-made music. Suppose a man may come from the Far East, the extreme North, South, or West, but wherever he sees the beauty of nature, he cannot help admiring and loving it. And so a music lover, from whatever country he comes and whatever music he hears, if the music has soul and if the music lover seeks for the soul in the music, he will appreciate and admire all music. Furthermore, music has a mission not only with the multitudes, but with individuals. And its mission with the individual is as necessary and great as its mission with the multitude.
