"Supporting a Musical Renaissance for the Twenty-first Century
Robert Henri, American painter and art teacher, wrote this passage in a 1915 letter to his students:
There are moments in our lives, there are moments in a day, when we seem to see beyond the usual. Such are the moments of our greatest happiness. Such are the moments of our greatest wisdom. If one could but recall his vision by some sort of sign! It was in this hope that the arts were invented. Signposts on the way to what may be… Signposts toward greater knowledge…
We are drawn to the works of art left for us by past masters, even as we continue to create new ones for our fellows and ourselves in the present. We go to these signposts for direction, encouragement, inspiration. We long for the glimpses they give us behind the material wall, into the intangible. We seek clues in them, like fingerprints of the invisible. Through them, we sense the mysterious fields and forces that infuse our physical reality, and continue to exist beyond it."
