"The man that hath no music in himself,
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils;
The motions of his spirit are dull as night
And his affections dark as Erebus.
Let no such man be trusted. Mark the music. "
Lorenzo in W. Shakespeare The Merchant of Venice, Act 5, Scene 1
I don't know if it's true but I like it.
I also like Chopin Polonaise Op. 53 played by Horowitz. First time I listened to it I was 6 years old. Chopin Polonaise entered my heart and when this kind of things happens there's nothing that you can do because you're captured.
Are you ready to be captured?

For comparativists, this is Pollini's version.
