Excerpt from On Musical Execution: An Attempt at a Systematic Exposition of the Same, Primarily With Reference to Piano-Playing

Daily experience teaches that technique and execution in the performance of musical composi tions, are two entirely distinct factors of artistic individuality, which are mingled in the most va rions proportions, and whose harmonious fusion in the individual artist (through whi ch alone this title may of right be assumed) must be termed a very rare phenomenon among the multitudes of virtuosi who annually appear before the public. With most of these, technical skill predominates to such an extent, that amid our amazement at its display, which is indeed the object of these virtuosi, we are hardly able to enjoy the work of art itself.
