For Hans

How often do we know
Of people who execute technically brilliantly
The work of a great composer
But there is something lacking
Which makes it dull and uninteresting

Because it is without feeling
It is without soul
They have not touched the soul of the composer
And unless the soul of the composer is put into the technique
If it is not behind that which is been done
There is, in spite of its brilliance of execution
Nothing but deadness
And there is nothing but disappointment

But those who feel so intensely
Those who appreciate music
And yet cannot play it
Are the greatest musicians
For they have something
Which the man with all the technique in the world has not got
He has not got God in his heart
