The growth of the public concert
says the London Times. has been the
work of the nineteenth century, and
in. London its increase within the last
few years, has been almost alarming.
Fifty concerts a months was the aver
age in the London seasons 1898 and
1000. but last year that number was
often exceeded in a week. SO that now
concert-giHing seems practically to-
absorb all musical activity
The songs which the French Trouba-
dours sang in the Middle Ages, from
the eleventh to the fourteenth century,
were recorded in notation which has
heretofore been a sealed book to musi-9
cal historians. But the seal has been
broken at last. A Strassburg scholar
DR.. Beck, made some interesting re-
Violations regarding these melodies at
q recent meeting of the Paris Academy
of Inscriptions. After years of pa
'tient labor he succeeded in finding the
key to not only the intervals of these
melodies, but also their rhythms. AT
the conclusion of his address DR.. Beck
sang some of these melodies.
