remark was accompanied and contrasted by another, that
no such danger attended had been observed to attend on a proficiency in instrumental
music – why? because there neither is nor ever
was any such connection between voice instrumental
music and drinking. Drinking leads to bawling noise: and
bawling noise inspired by drinking falls naturally into that sort of bawling which
has drinking for its theme: and so long as a man
retains any sort of possession of his faculties, howsoever whatsoever
be the disorder in them – disordered, he is fit for bawling at the same rate. Between
instrumental music and drinking, there is no such natural
alliance: a man may play a drinking song, but
the connection between the music and the drinking is no
longer immediate but remote: he may attempt to play,
but while so long as he does so he must have his faculties
in the most perfect degree at command. A
musical performer after the performance may get drunk
like another man: after the performance, but not while
he performs: where intoxication commences,⊞ ⊞ disorder commences: and where disorder commences, there instrumental
music ends.
