CHAPTER VII 'Die wahre Musik ist allein furs Ohr. Goethe PECULIAR charm of carillon music is due to the invisibility of the player. The element of mystery is in the notes that float down from the tower and while we know that there is a performer, his movements do not distract us from completely giving ourselves up to the enjoyment of the sounds. To Stevenson, we have seen, perception of the charm came as he floated on an inland river; to another voyager it was as he sailed at evening on the North Sea: "It was when cruising in a fishing boat off the coast that I first heard the keyboard carillon and guessed that a living artist and not a mere mechanical contrivance was making music (which indeed seemed the moonlight, made audible) in his far-off unseen tower beyond the darkling sea levels and the white glimmering fog-drifts." Carillons have a peculiar association with the water, for not only do many of them constantly sound over it, but the Dutch and the Flemish are by nature oversea traders. The carillonneur, too, climbing his tower in fair weather and foul, affected by neither rain, sun, nor wind, is not unlike the captain on his bridge. And again, the view from the tower over the flat Netherlandish countryside has much to remind one of ocean reaches. Not a few travellers must have felt this similarity, for the Dutch landscape has the same glistening reposeful beauty as has the sea in calm sunny weather. De Amicis describes such a scene: "From the top of the tower (S. Lawrence's), the whole of Rotterdam can be seen at a glance, with all its little sharp red roofs, its broad canals, its ships scattered among houses, and all about the city a vast green plain, intersected by canals bordered by trees, sprinkled with windmills and villages...
