About This Quote

Music is the weapon in the war against unhappiness. Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, and even Bach's favorite composer, Handel, all saw music as a way of making people happier. In fact, Beethoven was so convinced of this that he once wrote to a friend: “I have been composing for music for 20 years now and I have never written anything except for my own happiness."
