[LAU] re Subconscious Affecting Music

[Rustom Mody]

There are two voices I hear here vis-a-vis Bach:
1. Art for art's sake -- the romantic idea
2. Art for money's sake -- the distinction of commercial vs commisioned
being a fine semantic distinction.

Bach himself expressed a view however which does not fit in with either:
*
Anything done other than for the service of God is vanity*

[I read this 30 years ago and google is not finding me a suitable quote --
sorry if its off the mark]
