Symphonies of Paradise

A great and renowned composer once said, in the presence of those who praised his music “When, in the course of composing a work, I feel myself bogged and get no inspiration, I take my beads and start praying the Rosary. Soon my mind becomes loaded with so many melodies that I am able to notate but a few only.” This statement came from none other than Franz Haydn, the famous Austrian composer.
