Josef Pieper quoting CS Lewis......awesome!

Is music more than mere amusement? An interesting question posed. Music reflects and molds the soul. Something to ponder.

I definitely feel like my capacity for wonder and ability to see have diminished over time. I'd like to recover that.

I read this several years ago when I first got married on the recommendation of my younger brother in law. It popped up again on a recommended books list for classical home educators. So, I am reading it again. Josef Pieper is full of wisdom, and I'm hoping I will glean much more this time than last time.
