Con­se­quently, cre­at­ing mu­sic may be con­sid­ered em­piri­cal only that the proc­ess of com­pre­hen­sion is pointed within: here, the em­piri­cal com­pre­hen­sion con­cerns the inside and not the out­side.

So, em­piri­cally com­pre­hend­ing the outer mu­si­cal re­al­ity only served to in­spire the lis­tener to em­piri­cally com­pre­hend his own in­ner mu­si­cal re­al­ity; and thus it served to com­pre­hend his own in­ner, per­fect, natu­ral art of mu­sic.

In the proc­ess of crea­tive mu­sic lis­ten­ing, “cre­at­ing some­thing new” is typi­cally a “re-semblance,” a “re-vival,” a “re-call­ing into be­ing,” a “re-cre­at­ing,” a “fun­da­men­tal re­ali­za­tion.”

Hence, crea­tive mu­sic lis­ten­ing is that mecha­nism where the lis­tener knows how to make the golden tree of mu­sic grow natu­rally and spon­ta­ne­ously out of his own in­ner per­fect ar­tis­tic po­ten­tial, through the forces in­her­ent in his natu­ral mu­si­cal po­ten­tial; and he does so af­ter an out­side stimu­la­tion from the fertile ground of his in­ner­most in­tui­tion: from the fertile ground of his in­ner­most fac­ul­ties of cog­ni­tion. From the height of his pure self-aware­ness, he goes down to the world of his hu­man feel­ing and un­der­stand­ing, and fur­ther down to the world of the mu­si­cal sound-space or as a mu­si­cian even fur­ther down to the acous­tic space.
