This ele­men­tal in­ter­nal life of a tone or sound can be most mean­ing­fully de­scribed as ‘the mi­cro­cosm of mu­sic.

From the first sound im­pulse, a sound grows in time and space into a com­plex tonal pat­tern, like a tree from a seed and at some point in time it decays – like eve­ry other thing in crea­tion.

To­day, these in­ter­nally liv­ing struc­tural de­vel­op­ments of tones and sounds can be ren­dered visi­ble and au­di­ble us­ing spe­cial sci­en­tific de­vices.

Thus to­day it is sci­en­tifi­cally and tech­no­logi­cally pos­si­ble to filter out in­di­vid­ual in­ter­nal tonal de­vel­op­ments from a tone or sound and, as such, to ex­am­ine them.

And if we spa­tially and tem­po­rally lengthen these acous­tic ex­pres­sions, which may them­selves last only frac­tions of a sec­ond, then we rec­og­nise in each one of them an in­fi­nite num­ber of con­nected move­ments – each of them a com­pletely in­di­vid­ual vari­able tone with its own vari­able pitch and volume, its own vari­able rhythm, its own point and time of ori­gin and a com­pletely unique pat­tern of de­vel­op­ment – noth­ing short of a ‘per­sonal jour­ney through life’.

Nev­er­the­less, there are fixed rules in their evo­lu­tion, like those we also know in the physi­cal, chemi­cal, bio­logi­cal or as­tro­nomi­cal world as ‘natu­ral laws’.

Thus in the com­plexly con­structed in­ter­nal tonal world of just a sin­gle in­di­vid­ual tone or sound, we find mul­ti­fari­ous, natu­ral ‘so­cial’ re­la­tion­ships be­tween very many fine tones, where­by, time-and-again, new ‘so­cial’ or­ders gain and then lose the upper-hand: the de­vel­op­ment of ever newer, more natu­ral, more in­di­vid­ual, more in­te­grated so­cial and eco­logi­cal pat­terns of or­der in chaos.

With ‘mu­sic’ we best de­scribe first this in­ter­nal life of tones or sounds, which is an in­te­gral part of them and makes their in­ter­nal de­vel­op­ments pos­si­ble – simi­lar to the way in which our in­ter­nal life de­ter­mines for each one of us the way through life and, over and above this, the way of our so­cial re­la­tion­ships and ul­ti­mately, also the course of the en­tire eco­logi­cal de­vel­op­ment.

Even in one sin­gle sound alone – sin­gled out from the twit­ter­ing of birds – it is pos­si­ble to dis­cover a gi­gan­tic con­cert of birds, and in a sin­gle sound from the hu­man voice one can hear – if one lis­tens care­fully – mas­sive choirs, full of sounds and in­di­vid­ual songs.

How­ever, the natu­ral abili­ties of our ‘mu­si­cal ear’ have been deaf­ened and dis­abled by the many eco­logi­cal crises – es­pe­cially in mu­sic too. There­fore it must be our com­mit­ment to open up this mi­cro­cosm of mu­sic lit­tle-by-lit­tle and, as lis­ten­ers, to pene­trate this never-end­ing, hid­den world where the ele­men­tal na­ture of the mu­sic will be re­vealed to us. Then we will rec­og­nise the eter­nal laws of har­mony of our life.1

Nature‘s Laws of Harmony in the Microcosm of Music


“The natural abilities of our ‘musical ear’ have been deafened and disabled by the many ecological crises – especially in music too. Therefore it must be our commitment to open up this microcosm of music little-by-little and, as listeners, to penetrate this never-ending, hidden world where the elemental nature of the music will be revealed to us. Then we will recognise the eternal laws of harmony of our life.”
