Stephen Foster:
[after he finishes playing Oh, Susannah]
Like it?
Susan Pentland:
It's lovely.
Stephen Foster:
What did you think, Professor?
Professor Henry Kleber:
That's all right. A nice little thing. But you can do better. Now, now, don't... please, don't misunderstand me. It's very good.
Susan Pentland:
It's wonderful!
Professor Henry Kleber:
Yes, not so hard to play as Mozart either.
Stephen Foster:
That's the idea. It's easy to pick up. It might become popular
Professor Henry Kleber:
Popular, yes. For a day, a month, a year maybe. But Steven, you've got music that didn't come out yet. Rhythmic emotion, pathos. That's what you want to cultivate. Maybe someday you'll write something that... that lives forever.
Stephen Foster:
Forever is a long time, Professor.
Professor Henry Kleber:
Well, we shall see what we shall see. Time will tell.
