To give the public what they do not want, and yet expect to be supported: we have there a strange pretension, and yet not uncommon, above all with painters. The first duty in this world is for a man to pay his way; when that is quite accomplished, he may plunge into what eccentricity he likes; but emphatically not till then.

Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet
Essay (1888-09), “A Letter to a Young Gentleman Who Proposes to Embrace the Career of Art,” Scribner’s Magazine, Vol. 4, No. 3

The Bach 'Double' is all about the conversation. Watch as Kremer and Grindenko trade lines with an intensity that feels almost telepathic. At [04:15], they enter the Largo ma non tanto, and the lyricism here is absolutely soul-stirring. The intertwining melodies create a tapestry of sound that is both complex and deeply human. If you appreciate the art of the duet, this is the gold standard you need to hear right now. 🎶 #Baroque #MusicHistory #Artistry

WIST Quotations Feb 3

A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt

The appreciation of many things in which we are not proficient ourselves but which we have learned to enjoy is one of the important things to cultivate in modern education. The arts in every field — music, drama, sculpture, painting — we can learn to appreciate and enjoy. We need not be artists, but we should be able to appreciate the work of artists.

Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962) First Lady of the US (1933–1945), politician, diplomat, activist
Column (1958-11-05), “My Day”
