Emphasis Preaching Journal

The late Bishop Gerald Kennedy told about a museum in Vienna where a piano Beethoven played is displayed. As an American visited the large room, she walked over to the piano and played a jazz piece. She then turned to the attendant and asked whether any famous pianists had seen the instrument. He said that Paderewski recently visited the museum. "Then he must have played something most beautiful on this old instrument?" "On the contrary," replied the attendant, "Paderewski did not feel worthy of touching it."
