The Unproved
in Gaining Knowledge in Music


 
When we came from the mu­si­cal sound-space through the motif-space, and delved into the deeper mu­si­cal lev­els of knowl­edge, the ex­is­tence of a next higher field of mu­si­cal knowl­edge was nec­es­sar­ily evi­dent to us, be­cause the ex­peri­ence of it was not avail­able to us, un­less we ac­tu­ally en­tered this field.

 
The Unproved on the Path of knowledge from the Musical Sound-Space to the Motif-Space
Thus, in the field of the mu­si­cal sound-space, we could at best an­tici­pate the ex­is­tence of a motif-space.
Be­cause only from some higher or­der, which we felt and which seemed to move the tones, we con­cluded the ex­is­tence of a more pow­er­ful force-field which seemed to cause and con­trol the move­ment of the tones.

 
The Listener Deduces the Existence of More Powerful Musical Force-Fields
In our sys­tem­atic in­ves­ti­ga­tion into the or­ga­niz­ing forces in the mu­si­cal sound-space, we now ad­vanced step by step into the fields of knowl­edge of more and more com­pre­hen­sive or­ga­niz­ing prin­ci­ples, and we found that, in­deed, forces of a higher or­der gov­erned the mu­si­cal sound-space from within.

 
The Listener Advances to More Comprehensive Organizing Principles
In the course of this analy­sis we leaned, above all, on the joyful ex­peri­ence of our feel­ing which dis­cov­ered more and more joy within it­self as it searched for higher or­ders.

 
The Feeling as the Driving Force for the Process of Knowing
Due to this in­crease in joy, our in­tel­lec­tual gain­ing knowl­edge in mu­sic, our emo­tional and our in­tel­lec­tual com­pre­hen­sion of a mu­si­cal mean­ing be­yond the tones, was en­cour­aged more and more.
And this en­cour­age­ment was of mostly emo­tional na­ture, and it was re­lated to the in­crease of our in­ner sen­sa­tion of hap­pi­ness.

 
Emotional Encouragement on the Path towards Musical Truth
All by in­tui­tion, our feel­ing then grasped the ex­is­tence of higher or­ga­niz­ing prin­ci­ples.
In the mu­si­cal depths, it found greater sim­plic­ity and a more ef­fec­tive ap­pli­ca­tion of power of the sub­tler mu­si­cal forces.
