Who Said That?

"I even have to confess that if I ever get to heaven, I would first of all seek out Mozart and only then inquire after Augustine, St. Thomas, Luther, Calvin and Schleiermacher."

This quip comes from Swiss Theologian, Karl Barth.  I love Mozart too, but not as much as Barth.  I may be presumptuous here, but Schleiermacher's presence in heavenly would be surprise me greatly.  The quote comes from:  Karl Barth, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Eerdmans, 1986), 16.

Karl Barth ... but I also like the answer given above, of "someone who's never heard of Bach"
