To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We cannot ignore the inheritance from Liszt, both spiritual and musical. More and more does the Hun- garian loom up as an overmastering influence of his own and a succeeding age. It seems as if Liszt, not Wagner, was the musical prophet who struck the rock of modern pessimism, from which flowed a stream of ravishing art. The national current in Tschaikow- sky's music was less potent than with his younger compatriots; or at least it lay farther beneath the surface. For nationalism in music has t...wo very different bearings. The concrete elements of folk-song, rhythm and scale, as they are more apparent, are far less important. The true significance lies in the motive of an unexpressed national idea that presses irresistibly towards fulfilment. Here is the main secret of the Eussian achievement in modern music, — as of other nations like the Finnish. It is the cause that counts. Though Eussian song has less striking 114 TSCHAIKOWSKY traits than Hungarian or Spanish, it has blossomed in a far richer harvest of noble works of art.
