 "I think that’s the beauty of music, there’s eternity in it. And I think that’s true also of architecture even in ruined architecture, you can see an [eternal] sense of a spirit.” Architect Daniel Libeskind talks about listening to the Toccata and Fugue in D Minor by J. S. Bach, and how music, like architecture, creates a shared space — rooted in memory but looking ahead to eternity — that connects us all. Daniel Libeskind is an Polish-American architect best known for designing the Jewish Museum Berlin and his master plan for the World Trade Center site in Lower Manhattan.
