This article from Spiked Online on music's impact on public thought and culture takes a few interesting (if not particularly fruitful) detours into discussions of trueness of Truth, but a few of its quotations are particularly well-chosen.
"We know the truth, not only by reason, but also by the heart." --Pascal
"There is no truer truth obtainable / By Man than comes of music." --Robert Browning
Nietzsche might have said the same things if he didn't take delight in obtuseness.
