to accompany the discussion I would like to invite the kind members to listen to this little piece of music of the time

It has been described as "furniture music". It is a bit incorporeal as Forster writings, but not less gentle or, in its delicate way, deep. What a contrast with the innovative movements of the time. Futurism and cubism among them. Of which in A Room With a View there is almost no trace, except maybe in the Emersons. But of which the Cambridge graduate and man of his times Forster could not be and was not unaware.
