What I hear I forget.
What I see I remember.
What I do I know.

Chinese Proverb

The discovery of song and the creation of musical instruments

The discovery of song and the creation of musical instruments both owed their origin to a human impulse which lies much deeper than conscious intention: the need for rhythm in life ... the need is a deep one, transcending thought, and disregarded at our peril. --Richard Baker
