There
are many people who can make others happy. But, how many? And, to
how many do we give joy? Usually just the people we know –
or – those who know us! But, there is a certain group of people who
can bring happiness to many, and they are composers,
and they are unique.
They
are not only limited
to the times of their lives, they are eternal. And, the people
they touch with their greatness are not only those who they
know, but everyone else as well. And, Mozart is the perfect example.
There
is no-one on earth who has not heard of him. And, there are very few
people who dislike his music. His music is timeless,
and its effects are the same for everyone everywhere. Everyone
loves it!
And,
this is what greatness is. It's something eternal, it's
something of beauty, and it's something that everyone loves. And,
there's nothing else like it. Of course, books can also be great.
Dickens is still very popular. But, Dickens's works, like all
other books, are restricted by language and
understanding. Music is not. It is free to go where it wants!
And,
this is why the only greatness is music. It's free for everyone to
love. It belongs to no-one, and neither time nor language can
damage or change it. It's the same as it always has been, and its
future is the same as its present! Music is timeless!
