a corner in Dr Albert Schweitzer's room |
|
The bed he died in at the age of 90 |
|
the table beside her bed.... |
|
The front of their home and the nurses dormitory.... |
|
The cemetery where the Dr and others that came to help, lie. |
"'Those hours with [Schweitzer] at the organ are unforgettable. I would sit with him on the organ bench listening and he would ask my opinion and we would discuss phrasing, tempo, dynamics. It was in those hours that I received my best musical education. The Doctor also loved these evenings for he was always in his happiest mood when playing the organ. All responsibilities, the whole world, disappeared for him; there was only music--the organ, nothing else. He loves music and needs it. Even in Africa, when working very hard, the day is not ended before he has his one hour of practice on his piano with organ pedals.'
