This, in a sentence, is the _ : , e ey g!g) explanation for the extraordinary interest in music at e present displayed by all ages and classes of society offered Bk e . by nearly a score of noted artists, educators and other [HE . g leaders, included in a symposium compiled by the Conn Music gl ats gl %; Center, Elkhart, Ind. The Music Center was lead to secure the SR zﬁ% opinions on the value of music to the public school pupil that e At follow by the publication of government figures showing a e v large gain in the number of professional musicians, and further = (S bl e ndicating that the sale of musical instruments throughout the e :ountry has more than doubled in the past twelve years. Eaae -

According to the published figures, there are now in ‘he United States as many musicians as there are lergymen or lawyers and five times as many as there are journalists. This, of course, does not take zount of the thousapds of semi-professional and ama‘eur musicians who /are doing part-time work teaching, singing in choirs, or earning extra dollars by working )n the side with violin and saxophone. Figures from ‘he same source also show that while the value of musical instruments turned out in 1914 was only $119,000,000, in 1923 the figure had risen to $242,000,000" and is steadily going up. : ' Of the millions of boys and girls who are entering high schools in America this fall, the Conn Music-Center estimates that close to a million will have some sort

of musical training before they enter college G or commerce.. These will form the bulk of P the high school and university bands of %/ e tomorrow, later turning to lodge and m, community bands and orchestras, a &S R few into symphonic orchestras and & TS still others to grand opera. They A . e will take the places now being filled & % a largely by musicians brought in ¥R k e from’abroad, and among them will & YR e be the great soloists to represent & America in the world councils of [ &,,,5& music. @ B Al “Young Boy Can’t Sing” §(i & Three striking viewpoints stand out CRGTasaarm, S in the symposium below. Several of (RaSraEd the contributors make the point thot et Americans are no longer content with =

merely hearing music, but that tﬁé§ are showing unmistakable signs of

wanting to take an active part in creating musie. Sportively speaking, it might be interpreted to mean that the rising generation is-tiring of watching a baseball game when the opportunity is there to go out and play goif. Unquestionably, there is a growing inclination on the part of Americans to develop their “musical bump.” Frederick Neil Innes, one of the greatest bandmasters of all times and now head of a unique institution in Chicago which aims to train band men as well as band leaders, thinks that the present amazing popularity of instrumental music among young folk is a reaction to the distress experienced by their parents in being forced to take vocal work in the schoolroom in their ‘youth. The boy in the adolescent stage, he says, will not sing because he has “no voice to sing with,” but given a trombone, cornet or any other instrument, it is amazing with what energy he will apply himself to it. Mr. Innes is a strong believer that band and orchestra are vastly superior to the vocal class as 'a training medium and in this he is seconded by several of the contributors to the symposium. Another new thought on music in the schools is advanced by C. D. Greenleaf, for ten consecutive years president of the National Association of Band Instrument Manufacturers. He thinks izstrumental musie should be included in the manual training course of

the school curriculum. “Our schools have been devel. oped so that now a child can learn to be a car- _ penter, mechaniec, printer or a member of a ” number of other professions, all at public & o s cost,” says Mr. Greenleaf; ‘“why not & 9 extend the same sort of opportunity to & children who desire to take up music 4 . as a life-work?” A S A bR i Youth Blowing Its Horn Dy Continuing, Mr. Greenleaf says: & L{N\\ “Radio, the phonograph and the : \3,-;\\3\&%%\ public school band are conspiring o héﬁ to make the United States the § 2 g” most musical mation in all the W 8 <SR YH world. After hearing more music QG it iR than any other generation has ever \SGIESS @"’ heard, America is expressing an ardent RpEG SR ¢ wish to biow its own horn in the actua]l Clmpas i

pense of the .phrase. The creative spirit is lifting its head and today the United States is developing

more musicians and embryo musicians than ever before. “No matter how far short he may be from the accepted standards of his instrument, the player derives far more satisfaction and pleasure in the knowledge that he is creating music than he could possibly feel from the strains of the modern masters, artificially reproduced. - “It is a serious problem with many parents these days to find wholesome methods of recreation for their children. The band and orchestra furnish an’ideal outlet for the energies of the ‘gang’ which might otherwise be expressed in ways not nearly so healthful. It is pretty generally agreed that while the child is growing up is the best time to imbue him with a knowledge and love for music. The child has the time to devote to it, and learns music readily. By not giving him a musical education in childhood, we are probably depriving him of the joys of music forever.” :

Other contributors and contributions to the music school symposium are: John Philip Sousa, recognized as “king of band leaders” :—What I should like to see in this country, what I believe Woul(i do more than anything else for its musical development, is the extension of the band idea along . the linés de-

T veloped by organized baseball. This. game| R Ty was once a purely local thing; isolated S Xiﬁ teams dotted here and there in school - or village or factory. We know what it has become. Why cannot the e T American band be made as vital and Ri S Ly universal a part of our everyday T life? ‘ : . The musical training of children ot e is a most important part of any pros gram for making America more and »w 3 g = b oo more musical, but I believe that, like w* other education, its place is in the i O school and not in the home. The reason B ‘why many children of past generations w have found music drudgery is because it et was made an extra task, an infringement upon their playtime instead of a ‘part of their echooltima :

JOHN PHILIP SOUSA

: National School of Music, Chicago:—America 18 destined to be the leading nation of the world in the realm of music. It does not yet rank with Germany, France, Hungary, Italy or England. But she is climb. ing. It is the thusic in the public schools which will give America her supremacy. Fully eighty per cent of the high schools have some musical ‘organization, orchestra or band. -No other country offers her young people such opportunity to know, to appreciate and to play good music. : o : I believe the ‘band or orchestra is vastly superior to the. vocal slass. ‘%’hy? Because the boy in the adolescent stage simply will not sing. He may be compelled to go through the motions, but he ‘will not actually sing. He refuses for the simple reason that he has no voice to sing with. But give him a trombone or a cornet, or any other instrument of the band, and watch his progress. It is amazing how he will work and study. There is no question but the public schools are wise in devoting more time to instrumental instruction. When music occéupies a position in the school on an equal footing with matheématics and history America will have capable musicians. o Dr. Herman N. Bundesen, Qommissioner of Public Health, Chicago:—David’s harp drove away Saul’s ill hurmor. Music plays a vital part today in the mind and body of the nation. We have learned that tones can

would be mmmense.- Une of the reasons -children -should be taught musie is that when they grow up they will have a taste for it and a means with which to occupy their leisure. ! ' ~ Edward W. Bok, editor, author and philanthropist :—s To be brought up in a home in which there is no musie is a terrible deprivation. If I had my life to live again I should certainly want to make music’'a part of my early training. My two sons fortunately have a love for music. One plays the piano and the other plays the trombone. It has seemed to me that American musical training in the past has been far too superficial. Music has done me .a wonderful and- invaluable service. 1 firnily believe it is only a ‘matter of time when we shall become in this country a- great music-creating people, Tl i g :
