Text

Start: And then, right away, the concert began. I heard it through the door--some serenade: at first only vaguely--too horrified to attend. But presently the sound insisted--a solemn Adagio, in E flat.

[... .. ...]

End: It seemed to me that I had heard the voice of God--and that it issued from a creature whose own voice I had also heard--and it was the voice of an obscene child!

Shaffer, Peter. Amadeus, Samuel French, 1980, pp. 16-17.
