d'Indy

There is only one thing to be done—to copy M. d'Indy's example; for that forsworn enemy of criticism is himself a keen critic.

M. d'Indy is not a man hedged in by the boundaries of his art; his mind is open and well fertilised.

It made itself felt in some of his followers, especially in those who were near the master's heart, as M. d'Indy was.

The worst of it is, these antipathies are apt to spoil the fairness of M. d'Indy's artistic judgment.

And so Franck seems to me to differ from M. d'Indy in that he has not the latter's urgent desire for clearness.
