Eurythmy Address

Every time there are eurythmy performances in our presence today, I still have to appeal to the audience's forbearance. So today, too, I would like to ask the esteemed audience for their forbearance, as we are only just beginning with eurythmy. However, we also know that, however imperfect it may still be today, it has truly unlimited potential for development. And that is because it makes use of the instrument that actually contains all the secrets of the world in concentrated form. The human being is a microcosm, a small world. And if one uses oneself as an instrument, as is already done in the art of mime, but only in a babbling way, but if one uses this instrument by drawing out of the human being all that is eloquently contained in the mobility of the human limbs, then something must ultimately come about that will stand alongside the fully-fledged older arts as a fully-fledged younger art.
