53. Eurythmy Performance

All that we are striving for is, of course, only just beginning, as we are able to present to you today as a rehearsal; but those who, from time to time, observe what we are able to offer here as the eurythmic arts will see that we have actually made some progress compared to what we were able to achieve six months ago. Those observers who compare the two – what we presented six months ago and what we present today – may perhaps still find some progress. And we do believe that, although we are still at the beginning with this eurythmic art, it is a beginning of something that can stand alongside other, older art and educational impulses as an art and as an impulse for educating humanity. But I ask for your forbearance in treating our demonstrations, our rehearsals, with forbearance, because they are, after all, intended to be an experiment to begin with. When this eurythmic art is further developed – either by ourselves or, more likely, by others – it will indeed very likely be able to stand fully equal with other, older sister arts as a method of education and art.
