The art of music must be brought to the highest stage of development, for this is one of the most wonderful arts and in this glorious age of the Lord of Unity it is highly essential to gain its mastery. However, one must endeavor to attain the degree of artistic perfection and not be like those who leave matters unfinished. (‘Abdu’l-Baha, extract from a Tablet; compilation ‘Professions’, prepared by the Research Department of the Universal House of Justice – Musicians)
