 Dietrich Von Hildebrand Legacy Project   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
The Legacy Project is pleased to offer for the first time in English a little gem in musical appreciation, Dietrich von Hildebrand’s essay on the composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in a recent translation by John Henry Crosby, published in Logos: A Journal of Catholic Thought and Culture.
Von Hildebrand is usually recognized for one or another of the famous facts of his life, such as his outspoken opposition to Hitler’s National Socialism, or, most frequently with one or another of his better known books, such as Marriage, Liturgy and Personality, or Transformation in Christ.
Anyone, even someone who ultimately disagrees with von Hildebrand’s stance on Mozart’s music, would betray a certain shallowness in not wanting at least to possess a portion of the matchless enthusiasm and gratitude so evident in the von Hildebrandian appreciation of all great things, Mozart chief among them.
