January 25, 2018

Thought for today: 



“Somebody  once  asked Anton Bruckner: ‘Master, how, when, where did you think of the divine motif of your Ninth Symphony?’ ‘Well, it was like this,’ Bruckner replied, ‘I walked up the Kahlenberg, and when it got hot and I got hungry, I sat down by a little brook and unpacked my Swiss cheese.  And just  as I open the greasy paper, that darn tune pops into my head!”  


Anton Bruckner [1825-1896]
