Race music, of national colour! When something at all is leading to the formal hollow materialism or standardisation, then it is imitation of the foreign mood. Why put an alien mask on with full seriousness, this may lead you to the deprivation of style only. 1 ARTUR KAPP Youngsters, keep much of Bach always. Counterpoint as it is characteristic of Bach is the ground of all music. Do not show off with effects, do not compose like dilettantes who are trying to please a wide audience with easy trickery. I am not contriving but composing.2 Except God I am not afraid of anybody. Let art be as profound as demanded by faith.3 HEINO ELLER 1 R.Tobias. In Puncto Musicorum. Articles on music.
