FINISHING OFF IN MILAN
Many Trials and Tribulations of
American Music Students.
THE ITALIAN MASTERS CRITICIZED

Consul Pepper Makes an Interesting OIL
cial Report of Importance to Many Am
bilious Young Americans-Some Practi-
cal Ideas Worth Reading.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-Mr. George w.
Pepper, United States consul at Milan,
italy, has made an interesting report uuon
the difficulties encountered by American
musical students in Italy. Mr.. Pepper
says that the great majority of Young
students who go to Milan to finish off,
return to their homes in few years with
out having received great benefit and dis
illusioned rs to the merits of Italian mas
tiers.
The selection of teacher" he SAYS,
is one OF the most difficult problems
which confronts the new arrival. Now
that the two most famous, san Giovanni
and Iamperti, are dead, there remain the
$50 others, more or less celebrated, from
whom to choose. Young women who are
wrongly allowed to come alone to this
country are here confronted by another
1ifilc'ilty, social etiquette which forbids
shelr taking a lesson unless third person
DE present, and which condemns them an
pearing in public alone.
Ihe price OF lessons Is on an average
so per month, rent OF piano Sl.GO per
month, and board $50 per month, Italian
lessons 40 cents an hour. But however well
they may be equipped and however strong
the enthusiasm of these young people,
they are little prepared for the disappoint
ments which await them. After the year
regarded as sufficient to prepare them for
their profession they find that without at
least one more years study the time and
money they have already spent will be
utterly Ruthless
Out Of the hundreds who have come to
nave their voices tested only one to nv
knowledge received an honest verdict from
the master to the effect that the quality of
her voice did not Justify her in commence
ing lessons. Unfortunately the majority
are led to believe that they are destined for
a successful career. They remain from
month to month and year to year, continu-
ing their lessons and waiting for engage
ments."
Wrong ideas with regard to the cheap-
ness OIL llvinSin Italy is also another reason
Tor the failure OF students, many of whom
think that board can be had so cheaply
that they bring insufficient funds. No one
can live comfortably In Milan for less than
S6o per month, including lessons, and vet
the majority come with an income of much
less. Many hope to enter the Royal con
aervatOry where tuition is very low, but
lew Americans succeed in doing so az the
conditions FOR entering are very strict No
one over - years Of age is accepted or who
has not some knowledge of the Italian lam
glaSc. Out of 100 Americans singers now
residing i'll Milan, not one has succeeded
i'll entering this year"

To such people, CoTToLENE is of
