THE MUSIC ARTS NOW COMMAND INTEREST Pierre Key Claims This Country Stands on Threshold of Vast Forward Movement Which Is Greatest „ in This Nation’s History. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN We have come to attach a lot of importance to the summary of Pierre Key in his “International Music Year Book.” This man is such an authority on music that when he tells us that “the United States is catching up with itself musically,” we may be sure that we are. Key's year book, to me, is just as necessary as weather conditions are to the farmer. Key tells us just where we are musically each year.

“Music in the United States,” he writes in his year book in the chapter on “Music in the United States,” “stands on the threshold of a vast forward movement. Never in the nation’s history have the music arts commanded the interest of the general public to such an extent as now. “It is the consensus of expert opinion that developments lie ahead which will be astonishing—when retrospectively surveyed. The quickening of this music appreciation and responsiveness is due to several elements; one is the growing distaste for an excess of jazz and so-called popular music, another is the broadcasting of good music over the air.” Key also pays a compliment to the splendid work of the able musical supervisors of the "public schools in bringing about musical appreciation. He writes most truly when he says. “If indications are accurate in pointing the way, then this nation is emerging from the quasi-chaotic condition in which it seemingly has floundered for several successive years. Anew advance appears to have begun, with the formative period of that advance reflected in a specific manner. It is disclosed in the field of composition.” Key points out that one of the best signs of improvement is to be found in “the desire of many persons to listen to the best compositions, adequately performed.” He calls attention to the important part that the pipe organ is playing in the movie theaters. Attention is paid in this chapter on the fact that boys and girls are not
