Kate Grenville Quotes
He Sat In The Chapel For Hours Picking His Way Through Fugues. A Dozen Notes, Hardly Music. But Then Those Few Notes Spoke To Each Other, Subject And Answer, By Repetition, By Diminution, By Augmentation, Even Looping Backwards On Themselves In A Course Like The Retrograde Motion Of Mars. He Listened As If He Had As Many Ears As Fingertips, And, Like A Blind Man, Could Feel Textures That Were Barely There. At The End Of Two Or Three Pages Of Music He Would Hear All The Voices Twining Together In A Construction Of Such Dizzying Power That The Walls Of The Chapel Could Barely Contain It.
