A TEST OF CLASSIC MUSIC.
simple Method by which Even the Most
Ignorant May Judge.

According to the Dusseldorfer An
zeiger there is very simple method
by which even the greatest skeptic
may ascertain whether a piece OF
music is good bad or indifferent 1t
is us follows: IL the music goes II,
2, 3. hop. hop hop" or Il, 2 3, bum,
bum bum" you may depend upon it
that you are listening 10 unmitigated
rubbish. But when you hear music
which sounds as though number of
well arranged notes were stuck into "a
barrel and energetically stirred about
like a sort of harmonious oatmeal por-
ridge, then you may assume that it is
fugue, and at once compose your
features into an expression OF pro-
found interest.
If, on listening to the music, you
fancy the notes are dropping accident
ally on the floor and from time to time
asserting themselves again in a quiet,
dreamy sort of way, then the piece is
probably nocturno and nocturnos.
as you are aware are very high class
music indeed.
When the notes seem TO arrive in
truck loads and each truck contains
so TO speak, IA different sort from the
one that has gone before, and when
the train appears to take an unreason-
able amount of time in passinga given
point then the master piece is most
likely a symphony, and symphonies
are the greatest musical creations
hitherto produced.
When it appears as though the
notes had been tumbled down heller
SHELTER. then vigorously shoveled up
into heap and lastly blown into the
air with dynamite cartridges-that is
rhapsody, and rhapsody is the latest
variety of music out
