You will not become musical by confining yourself to your room and to mere mechanical studies, but by an extensive intercourse with the musical world, especially with the Chorus and the Orchestra.

A sketch from Schumann’s Symphonic Etudes held at the Yale University Library

“Our manuscript is a sketch that includes the  theme and variations 1, 2, 5, 10, 12, as well as five others that were not  published until 1873, in an appendix edited by none other than Johannes Brahms.  It formerly belonged to Alice Tully (1902–1993), the philanthropist whose name   graces a concert hall in Lincoln Center. She gave it to Vladimir Horowitz (who  counted Schumann’s music among his many specialties in the piano repertoire),  and two years after his death, his widow Wanda Toscanini Horowitz donated it to  Yale. The other principal manuscript source for this piece belongs to the library  of the Royal Museum of Mariemont, in Belgium.”

When you have done your musical day’s work and feel tired, do not exert yourself further. It is better to rest than to work without pleasure and vigor.
