"And for the first time I dimly realised what I now regard as a firm fact of great performance: that the greatest singing is more than singing, it's playing--instrumental playing--at the same time, just as the greatest instrumental playing is more than playing--it sings at the same time."
--Hans Keller, reminiscing about a broadcast performance with Julius Patzak in the role of the Evangelist in Bach's St. Matthew Passion which he heard as a boy.
