Karl Barth 的書 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart 深得我心,
摘幾段跟大家分享
*****************************************************************
Mozart’s music is not, in contrast to that of Bach, a message,
and not, in contrast to that of Beethoven, a personal confession.
He does not reveal in his music any doctrine and certainly not himself.
The discoveries ostensibly made in both these directions,
especially in his later works, seem to me artificial and not very illuminating.
Mozart does not wish to say anything: he just sings and sounds.
Thus he does not force anything on the listener,
does not demand that he make any decisions, or take any positions;
he simply leaves him free.
Doubtless the enjoyment he gives begins with our accepting that.
On one occasion he called death man’s true best friend,
and he thought daily of death, as his works plainly reveal.
But he does not dwell on it unduly; he merely lets us discover it.
Nor does he will to proclaim the praise of God.
He just does it—precisely in that humility in which he himself is, so to speak,
only the instrument with which he allows us to hear what he hears:
what surges at him from God’s creation, what rises in him,
and must proceed from him.

進入需要誠實
反應需要等待
不如上課大家討論也是堂好課...
畢竟Mozart很容易讓人誤會
