The organ is in my eyes and ears the king of all instruments.

The only thing — I tell you this straight from the heart — that disgusts me in Salzburg is that one can't have any proper social intercourse with those people — and that music does not have a better reputation...For I assure you, without travel, at least for people from the arts and sciences, one is a miserable creature!...A man of mediocre talents always remains mediocre, may he travel or not — but a man of superior talents, which I cannot deny myself to have without being blasphemous, becomes — bad, if he always stays in the same place. If the archbishop would trust me, I would soon make his music famous; that is surely true.

The music is not in the notes,
but in the silence between.
