Mozart Combines Serenity, Melancholy, And Tragic Intensity Into One Great Lyric Improvisation. Over It All Hovers The Greater Spirit That Is Mozart's - The Spirit Of Compassion, Of Universal Love, Even Of Suffering - A Spirit That Knows No Age, That Belongs To All Ages.

We Musicians, Like Everyone Else, Are Numb With Sorrow At This Murder, And With Rage At The Senselessness Of The Crime. But This Sorrow And Rage Will Not Inflame Us To Seek Retribution; Rather They Will Inflame Our Art. Our Music Will Never Again Be Quite The Same. This Will Be Our Reply To Violence: To Make Music More Intensely, More Beautifully, More Devotedly Than Ever Before. And With Each Note We Will Honor The Spirit Of John Kennedy, Commemorate His Courage, And Reaffirm His Faith In The Triumph Of The Mind.
