You
can probably now imagine easily why I am extraordinarily delighted that a
classical composer takes creative care of this legacy and puts highest attention
to the fact that medical experts scientifically objectivate the effects of
such music-scientific compositions on man's organism.
The cooperation of a classical composer and medical experts seems to me
a very lucky alliance for health and also for music, and I am convinced that
with the Medical Resonance Therapy Music you found a new (and at the same
time age old) promising path for the medical application of music.
In
Wiesbaden I learned furthermore, that African members of government asked
you to find ways and means to preserve the rich music tradition of that continent
and that you now think about collecting those healing elements of the different
music traditions of the world and make them accessible to scientific research.
This
seems to me a very good idea because in this manner the best musical-medical
ethnic traditions can approve their practical value and find their seat of
origin in the objective medicine. I wish I had known about your works twenty
years before.
Today I am pensioned off and my possibilities to take part in your activities
are unfortunately very restricted. I am sure that there are enough practising
colleagues who would like to associate with you and that there are enough
supporters and foundations that would make the support of your activities
for health to their own concern. Your publisher, Alfred Tils, was so kind
to leave me several copies of some documentation on your work, which I sent
to different colleagues.
Should you therefore get some interested requests that use my name as reference, this explains it. I wish you further good luck and much support in your activities and would be happy if you could keep me informed about the proceedings of your findings and developments. If I can assist you with my possibilities I will like to do it. With the best greetings.
