A MOST interesting study in litera- ture would be that of the tributes which have been paid by our great poets to music, the most subtle and mysterious of the arts. They have all felt how closely music and poetry are allied; for the great musician is a poet and a prophet, as the poet or the prophet must of necessity have more or less of music in his nature in order to be the perfect artist. One poet has said that we gain a foretaste of heaven by means of music, and that it frees us from the limits of space and gives us the most complete revelation of God. Richter has the same feeling of the transcendental nature of the art when he exclaims: It speaketh to me of that which in all my endless life I have not found. . . . It is the only language which is incapable of expressing that which is impure. Words- worth says music is Like thoughts whose very sweetness yieldeth proof That they were born for immortality. Very much the same idea Shakespeare had expressed long before, when in the wonderful lines in the Merchant of Ven- ice he speaks of the touches of soft har- mony being in accord with the soft stillness of the night, a harmony such as is in immortal souls. Shakespeare elsewhere calls music the food of love, and also speaks of its sweet power, its use being To refresh the mind of man after . . . his pain. Milton dwells on the Sweet compulsion that doth in music lie; and Shelley speaks of its omnipotence, how it lifted up the listening spirit ; and with wonderful imaginative grasp of the influence of music he says it loosens the serpent which care has bound upon his heart, and then invokes its presence in that lyric: I pant for the music which is divine, My heart in its thirst is a dying flower; Pour forth the sound like enchanted wine, Loosen the notes in a silver shower. But among all the poets, from Plato to the present, no one shows a deeper and wider sympathy with music than Robert Browning. It is but one of numberless proofs of the many-sidedness of the poet, who touches life at every point. He not only gives us fine phrases, like Milton, Congreve, or Keats, but he pierces to the very heart of the myste- rious art, and analyzes and interprets it with masterly imagination and skill. His analysis is not only concerned with the art itself; he describes its effect upon both the musician and those who listen to him. He searches for the motive
which has animated the musician and aroused his creative energy; he traces the subtle influences at work upon his spiritual nature, and gives us an insight into the depths of his soul, its infinitude of aspiration, its unceasing reaching out to the Eternal. In many poems, too, Browning uses the technicalities of music as imagery to express spiritual truths. Thus in Fifine : For as some imperial chord subsists, Steadily underlies the accidental mists Of music springing thence, that run their mazy race Around, and sink, absorbed, back to the triad base; So, out of that one word, each variant rose and fell, And left the same Alls change, but permanence as well. Grave note, whence list aloft! harmonics sound, that mean, Truth inside; and outside, truth also; and be. tween Each, falsehood that is change, as truth is per- manence. One naturally places Abt Vogler among Brownings finest utterances upon music and its spiritual message. The music is illusive and transitory, but the spiritual power of it is permanent. The good Abbd, whose organ keys gave forth their sounds to a wish of his soul, feels that his art is really greater than that of the poet or the painter, that it is indeed the finger of God, the of his will. Yet in the midst of his confidence he feels how transient is the palace of music he has been rearing: it is gone never to be again. But from this very perception of the fleeting nature of his work he rises to the perception of one of the sublimest truths which can irradiate the soul : There shall never be one lost good! What was shall live as before. All we have willed or hoped or dreamed of good, shall exist; Not its semblance, but itself. This belief that even our failure here is but a triumphant earnest of future suc- cess, when eternity shall affirm the con- ception of an hour, comes to the musician as a direct revelation which cannot be controverted: Sorrow is hard to bear, and doubt is slow to clear; Each sufferer says his say, his scheme of the weal or woe; But God has a few of us whom he whispers in the ear; The rest may reason and welcome; tis we musicians know. Brownings poem were worthy of at- tention if it only possessed the one excel- lence of immortalizing a musician whom the world is doing its best to forget. In- deed, when one seeks in dictionaries and encyclopmdias for information in regard to Voglers life and works, and finds that he is mentioned in none which are accessi- ble outside of the large libraries, it might be said with truth that he is forgotten by all but scholars and students of the history of music. Whenever the general reader takes up Brownings poem, the first ques- tions asked are: Abt Vogler,who is he, what musical instrument did he invent, xvhere and when did he live? Until these questions are answered, the poem does not convey to his mind its perfect message. But afterwards, hoxv luminous with meaning it becomes, how full of fine suggestion and subtle analysis of the most delicate phases of spiritual endeavor and aspiration; and while revealing the source of the truest consolation, it forms a health- ful antidote to that gospel of despair which so many poets of this age proclaim. Whether Vogler was a great musician or not depends so much upon the pre- cise meaning given to the term and so much upon the conflicting theories of the critics, that maybe the question had best be laid aside. If to be a great player, a great musical orator and im- proviser, and to move contemporary thought and emotion to its depths, is to be a great musician, then he most cer- tainly was one; if to compose operas and symphonies which time holds dear~ and cherishes forever is to be one, then Vogler most certainly was not. But fame has not always been the reward of those who have done the best work in the world and have been the most deserving of her gratitude. Are there no pioneers in science, art, and letters, who, though themselves forgotten, have paved the way for their more fortunate brothers, and thus made their success possible? The question is a commonplace one, and yet the honest striver often asks it in his hours of discouragement. The harvests
