“This
evening's concert has given us an idea of the multiplicity of musical
creativity and its vast harmony. Music is not just a succession of
sounds-it has a rhythm, at the same time cohesion and harmony. It has
its own structure and depth.
...
Music
is an expression of spirit, a place inside the person, created for all
that is true, good and beautiful. It is no coincidence that music often
accompanies our prayers. It awakens our senses and our soul when, in
prayer we find God.”
Benedict XVI, Concert organized by Caritas and by musician Thomas
Beckmann, Castel Gandolfo, 13 August, 2012.
