Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from In Many Keys
Hand unskilled may touch and try the strings, With vagrant fancies charming care away, Some solace oft such idle music brings, Whether the tune be plaintive, bold, or gay.
Not these the notes the master's hand awakes When Art her gift to heaven-born Genius lends, And o'er the chords his soul impassioned breaks In sound that all our mortal speech transcends.
