rules and theories, his objective point ana

The greatest progress made in modern
music has been In the development OF the
orchestra and OF orchestral possibilities
and as an appropriate orchestral setting
certainly greatly enhances the value and
significance OF a mclocic thought. It might
well be that in time the orchestral color
would suggest or embody the thought itself
There is no one who cannot realize the
difference between the emotional sensation
produced by lowering sky and that pro-
duced by brilliant sunshine; between
summer moon on quiet waters and the SAL

Of storm clouds on a turbulent sea. And
is not the varying light and color the most
