📖 "Take it for granted from the beginning that everything is possible on the piano, even when it seems impossible to you, or really is so.
Ferruccio Busoni, in Letter to Woltersdorf, 1898

📖 “A piece should always mean something to the player, and something to the listener; but the 'something' which it means is never quite the same to different people. This is one way in which music differs from painting. In a real picture certain objects appear and in most cases we re sure what they are. Music leaves our thoughts much more free."
Walter Carroll in Anthony Walker Walter Carroll The Children's Composer
