“Everything that is tender and speaks from the heart may now float away in gentle shower of ideas, may fade away in sounds of a placid melancholy, may rage through the strings in a turbulent passion of sound in ardent devotion, now in a restless struggle of all the emotions, now in savage despair, easy pleasantry is not out of question; it may now tease playfully with fairy-like steps, now romp briskly with rustic delight.”
