Is attitude to life more important than music?

'A musician is also a man, but more important than his music is his attitude to life.'

That quote from Pablo Casals appeared in my 2010 post A musician is also a man. The vexed relationship between music, conscience and accountability has been a recurring theme On An Overgrown Path. So thanks go to John McLaughlin Williams for pointing me towards a new article titled Music, Conscience, Accountability and the Third Reich on the website of the Oriel Foundation, which is dedicated to rediscovering suppressed music treasures of the twentieth century.
