ADDITION MUSIC
AND MUSICIANS.
The Music Of the People

John Spencer Camp. composer and
organist, says in last Sundays New
York Times, that in looking back, say,
twenty-five years over the field OF
music in the United States, one is
forcibly impressed with the progress
in music of all sorts and kinds. This
is partly due to the general world
musical progress and partly, I think.
to the local conditions obtaining in
this country. In church music great
advancement has been made both in
the style OF music sung and played.
and in the Importance attached to
music as an aid to the church service.
Many churches are appreciating the
fact that the music in a church, both
vocal and instrumental, ought to be.
first and last, of character consist
ent with religious service.
1t is coming to be recognized that
the choir singer and organfst should
be persons not only of solid musical
training, but also Of at least good NOR
al character and in full sympathy with
a religious service. Organ building has
proceeded by leaps and bounds, and
particularly within the past ten years
the mechanical side Of organ building
has been revolutionized, while the tone
has also grown to be more varied, ex-
pressive, and brilliant, and this without
foregoing the solid and so-called purely
organ effect. The pneumatic and cleo
pneumatic action and also the
electric blowing engine have developed

In the domain of piano playing we
have seen a general advance in techni-
que. Virtuosity was probably never
greater than today and the general
level of piano playing has advanced
greatly. The science of technique has
been highly developed, and today, more
| pianists can be turned out by our
teachers, with a. reasonable certainty
OF being good, than at any time before
in history.
The interest in piano music has also
been enormously stimulated by the me-
chanical players like the pianola, an
gelus, etc. These contrivances enable
the average person who has no tech
nique to play practically everything in
pian1stic literature, to say, nothing of
the nurnberless arrangements of the
popular music, operatic, and otherwise,
which interests the crowd; whereas,
twenty-five years ago there were no
mechanical piano players, now their
numbers is legion; where there were
very few speaking comparatively, play
ers and students, now there are thous-
ands.
A great momentum has been ac-
quired, and the piano from being rare
luxury twenty-five years ago, lis now
almost regarded as a necessary part Of
the furniture in every home.
