To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


THE MUSIC-LOVER mi; IW) He had arrived at an oasis in the day. Since morning he had been toil- ing through the Sahara of the city's noise: arid» senseless, inhospitable noise: roaring of wheels, clanging of bells, shrieking of whistles, clatter of machinery^ squawking of homs» rau- cous and strident voices: confused, bewildering, exhausting noise, a deso- late and unfriendly desert for the ear.
Now all that waste, howling wilder- ness was shut out by the massive walls of the concert-hall, and h
...e found him- self in a haven of refuge.
Mi THE MUSIC-LOVER lI But silence alone would not have healed and restored his spirit. It needed something more than the ab- sence of harsh and brutal and mean- ingless noise to satisfy him ; it needed the presence of melody and harmony: tones measured, ordered and re- strained; varied and blended not by chance, but by feeling and reason; sound expressive of the secret life and the rhythmical emotion of the human heart. And this he found flowing all around him, entering deeply into him, filling all the parched and empty channels of his being, as he listened to THE MUSIC-LOVER 4 Beethoven*s great Symphony in C Minor.
