. . . Music can be appreciated
by a person who can
neither read nor write, and it can also be appreciated by people who have
the highest form of intelligence. For example, Einstein plays the violin
and listens to music. People in the underworld, dope fiends and gun men,
invariably are music lovers, or at least they are affected by it. Music
is entering into medicine. Music sets up a certain vibration which unquestionably
results in a physical reaction. Eventually the proper vibration for every
person will be found and utilized. I like to think of music as an emotional
science.
George Gershwin
