Martin Luther on the Use and Abuse of Music

“Oh, the art [Music] is a noble commodity. One shouldn’t use it for pay, for purse or coffer. The art is easy to practice, is esteemed everywhere, benefits all people, and nevertheless preserves its own integrity. Yet nobody wants to learn or love it.” — Martin Luther (Sometime bwetween August 31 and Octover 11, 1537)

An interesting thought these days.
