and how much instinctive.
My only intention is
To have no intentions !
No formal, architectural or other artistic intentions
(except perhaps capturing the mood of a poem),
no aesthetic intentions - none of any kind; at most this :
To place nothing inhibiting in the stream of my unconscious
sensations. [Nothing] to allow anything to infiltrate which may
be invoked by intelligence or consciousness.
Letter from Schoenberg to Busoni, 1909
