The Study of Musical Creativity

The Mechanics of Perfect Hearing

When the listener,
4. 5, 5. 6, 10. 19, 11. 20, 17. 31, 18. 32

on the path of his personal musical experience, devotes himself
with his feeling
5. 9, 6. 10, 11, 7. 12, 8. 13, 9. 14, 15, 10. 16, 15. 25, 16. 26, 27, 17. 28

and his understanding
5. 7, 8, 6. 11, 7. 12, 8. 13, 9. 14, 10. 17, 18, 15. 25, 16. 26, 17. 29, 30

to the cognition of increasingly higher levels of musical order,
4. 4, 5, 11. 20, 21, 18. 32, 33
5. 6, 7, 10. 18, 19, 17. 30, 31
5. 9, 6. 10, 10. 16, 17, 17. 28, 29
6. 10, 11, 9. 14, 15, 16. 26, 27

and thereby experiences the musical creation more and more comprehensively,
5. 7, 8, 9, 6. 10, 11, 7. 12, 8. 13, 9. 14, 15, 10. 16, 17, 18, 15. 25,
16. 26, 27, 17. 28, 29, 30

then gradually he reaches a point
7. 12, 8. 13, 15. 25

where he comprehends the music with his feeling and with his understanding in an integrated manner;
6. 11, 7. 12, 8. 13, 9. 14, 15. 25, 16. 26

at this moment he has retired from the world of musical sounds
4. 4, 5, 11. 20, 21, 18. 32, 33

into the world of pure knowledge.
