Greatest Musical Nation

To say of any one nation that II
mas given us the best and most
charming music" would be a rather
hazardous statement. Italy has Civ.
en- US much fine music, and so has
France, and Austria, and England and
even the United States. Perhaps Ger.
many has the best claim to be called
the leading musical nation. Certainly
no other nation can show greater mn.
SIC than that which was composed by
Beethoven. Mozart and other artists
from the Fatherland.
