In looking through Das Neue Lied during these days I am constantly reminded how it is to you principally that I owe my enjoyment of the Easter hymns. It is a year now since I actually heard a hymn. But the music of the inner ear can often surpass that which we hear physically, so long as we really concentrate. Isn’t that remarkable? Indeed, there is something purer about it, and in a way music acquires a ‘new body’. etc.
