Excerpt from The Psychology of Sound N o doubt my theoretical constructions must be carried somewhat further before they can be held to have passed fully over into the elements consciously used by productive musicians and appreciative listeners. The gap is not a large one and is in great part filled by a psychical field that a theorist of sensory experience dare not rush into - the field of psychical habit and attitude. That field belongs chie&#64258;y to the historian and ethnologist. No doubt theory can go somewhat further still than I have gone. But it cannot go very far, for the working musician definitely takes over at a certain point the raw materials of his art from the real psychical processes of hearing, inaccessible in full to observation, and then proceeds to construct from them vast new realms without consulting anything that lies beyond the ken of observation. But I am not concerned about what I have not yet attained. If my theoretical efforts are valid, they will grow easily; if they are unfit to survive, the canker will be found within their body. But I think they are healthy enough to overcome in active life whatever weakness may have been born with them.
