We believe that it is precisely through such performances that the artistic can be particularly pointed out to our time. Otherwise, I ask you to take this performance with a grain of salt, because I keep emphasizing that this eurythmic art is still in the early stages of its development. But we are also convinced that it can be perfected and that if it is driven by us or probably by others from its beginning, in which it now stands, to ever greater and greater perfection - there are many possibilities for development in it - then it will be able to present itself as a fully fledged art alongside other arts that are older.
