Music is the purest form of humanity that there is...
You can say it is sound, as speech is sound,
as bird song is sound, but it isn't.
It's itself... It is a kind of heaven.
It's unearthly.
It lifts you out of life to another place..."
from A Duet for One by Tom Kempinski
A Night In Vienna, Opera ~ Broadway Workshop 2012
