The same applies for those boards of trustees, committees and advisory boards of German musical life, as long as they are financed by the national budget.

The monthly income of individual members of the  board of  trustees  or  the professors,  who  could  earn  their  money more honestly in a different manner anyway, is of no interest, when we are dealing with the ethical matter and the pure value of music.

I am, maybe, the only one in German musical  life,  who can voice his opinion in such a way.   And I am by no means proud of that fact, but rather sad that not more like myself have survived, but have become stuck somewhere in governmen-tal measures, and there breathe their last talent and creativity as professors or dignitaries.

Every year the German state squanders billions on the alleged support of music

Surely large amounts remain with the music functionaries and some commercial enterprises from the field of music – which, however, seems to me to be the less   harmless    part   of    this    macabre scenario.
 “The lack of judgement is really that
what you call stupidity,
and such an affliction
cannot be remedied at all.”
                         Kant		  
   
  “Modesty
is the moderation
of one’s demands
through the more reasonable demands of others.”
                         Kant		  
   
  “Everything good,
that is not grafted on
morally good convictions,
is nothing then pretence
and glistening misery.”
                         Kant		  
   
  “What do I want ?”
the mind asks.
“ What actually matters?”
the power of judgement asks.
“ What is the result?”
reason asks.
                         Kant		  
   
 

The actual damage is done by these music functionaries with the remaining money in that area, where their incompetent musical measures disable the gifted people and undermine their natural musical creativity.

 “Have the courage
to use
your own mind!”
                         Kant		  
   
 
In a time when in Germany ecological shortcomings are increasingly explored, pointed out, are publicly denounced and removed, where political corruption is revealed, publicly denounced, persecuted and eliminated,  the same shortcomings in German musical life should be actively challenged by the real music lovers.
 “The dam bursts,
the field erupts,
the floods wash,
the expanse is pounding.”
                         Goethe		  
     
   
 
„A small beginning which, however,
is epoch-making by giving
a completely new direction to
a way of thinking, is more important
than all those incalculable numbers of subsequent
expansions of culture.”
                              Kant
