QUOTE:
"A musician cannot move others unless he too is moved.
 He must of necessity feel all of the affects that he hopes
 to arouse in his audience, for the revealing of his own
 humor will stimulate a like humor in the listener."
AUTHOR: Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach
MEANING OF THE QUOTE:
"If the composer does not feel the music inside
 himself first he can not convey those feelings
 to the audience through his music."

Haydn wrote this solo
G Major violin concerto 
for Luigi Tomasini (1741-1808) 
his friend and the concertmaster 
of the Esterházy orchestra. The 
music is elaborate and virtuosic,
without being exhibitionistic or
theatrical. Its opening movement
has the solo writing flowing naturally
and abuntantly out of the initial orchestral
music introduction. The slow movement
(as is often the case in an eighteenth-
century concerto) is an aria without words
with the orchestra staying discreetly in 
the background so that the spotlight is
able to fall on the violin's gentle,
ornamental melody. Ending the concerto
is a lighthearted finale spiked with a
little of Haydn's humor.
