Music,
this complex and mysterious act, precise as algebra and vague as a
dream, this art made out of mathematics and air, is simply the result of
the strange properties of a little membrane. If that membrane did not
exist, sound would not exist either, since in itself it is merely
vibration. Would we be able to detect music without the ear? Of course
not. Well, we are surrounded by things whose existence we never suspect,
because we lack the organs that would reveal them to us.
