February 21

The Guardian values the hymns that you are so beautifully composing. They certainly contain the realities of the Faith, and will indeed help you to give the Message to the young ones. It is the music which assists us to affect the human spirit; it is an important means which helps us to communicate with the soul. The Guardian hopes that through this assistance you will give the Message to the people, and will attract their hearts. (From a letter dated 15 November 1932 written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi  to an individual believer, cited in ‘Bahá'í News’, February 1933; The Compilation of Compilations, vol. II, Music)
