How many thousands of men and wo-

music. They fail to realize that the two
statements are today contradictory, for
by means of the 'Cecilian' every one sim

Long ago Mr.. Emerson showed us
that what we wish in language is a
means of commandments there is
no virtue in and of itself in knowing a
new language, if the wealth of thought
and feeling which are imprisoned in that
language cannot be made available in
ones own. What wish said he, when

no virtue in spending thousands of dol

is almost too trivial to mention.

offer to play her five thousand dollar

Last summer 1t was my pleasure to see
in Berlin, in charity school whose pu-
S,ils ranged from kindergarten age to IL
years, an orchestra of fifty pieces, the
youngest player being and the eldest III
years of age led by a normal child mot

Listening to the infant orchestra,
which seemed hardly less than miracu-

friends took it as matter of course, and
in explanation of it they said: oh!
these children hear the best music all
the time. Why should they not respond
to it? Why should they not produce 1t
themselves?
During the last twenty years each re-
opening of the residence of the Girls

of the low level of taste prevailing In
our country in respect to music. Rag

hardly more harmonious sound, have, in
return, each for series, of years, held
sway. Between what the teachers of

almost revolutionary change must be

inevitable an evolution of the piano, as
the piano was the inevitable develop

smile into more indisputable realm,
as an oak is of an acorn.
ITO become an expert piano player on
the pianoforte requires an expenditure of
time, money and physical strength which
places such an acquisition far beyond the
reach of all excepting small minority.
After this triple investment has been
made, the average musician even among
so-called masters can maintain in readi-
ness for instantaneous production a rep
ertoire of hardly more than a score of
accepted masterpieces. To maintain such
a repertoire constant practice, so rigid
