Is there any person who is not moved by "Erbarme dich, mein Gott"? I am also deeply moved and could not help having tears in my eyes. But what are these tears? Do they stand in my eyes because of my sentimental disposition? Or because of my aesthetic emotion? Or because of my sympathy with Peter? Nor is it so clear whether this sorrowful and deep feeling belongs to the work "Mathew's passion" or to me. If it is my feeling, why do I become to this state of mind in my relation to the work, not to others? We must explain the effect of the object as a Gegenstand on me as long as I keep relations with the work and don't fall into day dreams. On the other hand, when we insist that it is not mine but the work's, that is, that the work has a kind of feeling as a mental state or of life, we must suppose the existence of a subject in work which is subhuman but at the same time similar to the human being as a bearer of feeling. In this short: article we consider the quality and the structure of my feeling with tears which is evoked by listening to music.
