THE PROCESS OF CREATING MUSIC | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Motif Recognition |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Recognizing the idea underlying the musical motif is like an impulse of becoming conscious in life; for, the listener experiences how a natural inborn inner-human ability penetrates an artificialy put-on mental-psychical limitation without resistance. |
Function of the Musical Motif |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
When, for example, someone thinks negatively about someone else and rejects him because of a certain attitude, still the thought may come to his mind, “Oh, what a nice face he has!” |
The Flexibility of Disposition |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Here the observer realizes that the positive thought of the nice expression on the face of the other person has a constructive effect on himself, while the former, negative thought had a destructive influence. |
The Influence of the Thought on the Thinker |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
This practical, personal realization of the influence of a thought on one’s self enables the listener to safely establish his inner nature in the process of evolution and to systematically construct his personality through prudent self-strengthening decisions, and to cultivate his character on this basis. |
The Fundamentals of the Inner Formation of the Musical Motif |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Thus, the thinking man learns to make decisions which promote his own inner growth and simultaneously create a positive influence on his fellowman. |
Coordination of the Inner Growth with the Environment |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In classical composition this mechanism of inner creativity is described by the motif-technique: It inspires the listener to take charge of the cultivation of his character and through his effort, through higher and higher aspirations, rise to the realms of beauty and radiate a rejuvenating influence into the world. |
The Musical Radiation of the Classical Musician |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Here the intellect reveals increasingly higher qualities of life in increasingly higher levels of order and thus cultivates the listener’s natural, healthy sense of judgement of feeling and understanding. |
