The father OF song. music and dane
ing. all three. was the savage who
first clapped bands and shouted in
time at some rude festival Of his tribe.
From that clapping and shouting has
been evolved the whole art Of instru-
trancing complexities OF the modern
symphony. From that shout or rudj-
mentary emotional utterance has pro-
ceeded by a kindred evolution the
whole art OF vocal music down TO the
modern opera or oratorio- From the
