"WHY SHOULD | STUDY THEORY"

choose the good from the bad drama.
You will know why certain pieces con-
tain advantageous teaching materia!
and why divers other pieces are empty
and Improbable.
Fourth-You will be able TO judge a
true composer from a musical con-
structor, /. c.. one who has message,
and not merely an initiative faculty.
You may readily believe that com
poscrs who have something worth
while to say are not too numerous
They are quite as rare as real poets.
Fifth-It will aid in your interpre-
tation of music. and that is the sum
mum bonum Of the whole thing. You
will know why such piece should go
thus, and not thus, because you have
knowledge and the traditions, and
know why a piece was written.
Sixth and lastly: You are not well
trained musician unless you have
thorough knowledge of music, and mu-
sic is not merely playing the piano; 1t,
like every other art, has its theoretical
features. One cannot be a good actor
unless one knows why people under
certain conditions and circumstances
do certain things. One truly cannot be
q well trained musician unless one
knows all the conditions and circum-
stances.
Theory is an inclusive study-that is,
IL has many subdivisions. They are
harmony, counterpart, fugue, form
and history. These, beside an exeeu-
tive technique, form the modus oper-
andi Of music.
Harmony is the grammar of music,
and is useful every day; counterpart
is the rhetoric, and is necessary; fugue
is syntax, and without it We cannot ar
range nor aualyze; form is compost
lion. and is essential 10 thorough APP
preciation. and history, well, history is
history. If we would know the story of
music as the story of peoples and ma
tons we must learn the story Of music.

By HARVEY B. GAUL.

The other day happened in
friends studio just as girl pupil was
departing. He, the teacher, was tell
ing her about some reference books
which would be helpful for fuller
comprehension Of Brahms. Among
other things he suggested book on
theory. As the pupil was going out
she said:
"Why should study theory"
The question was guileless and took
the teacher by surprise. He looked at
her, smiled and said;
"Why should artists study anatomy,
or school teachers psychology? Simply
because those studies are indispen-
sable for a thorough equipment IN
their professions. Next Tuesday
continued he, 81 will tell you in de-
tail why you should have working
knowledge Of theory, providing II
doesn't dawn on you before"
Many pupils must wonder why they
should study theory. Theory to many
a pupil must be like Latin to school
children, a study which they think APP
parently useless. In schoolboy phrase
ology, "What's the use?
If theory does nothing else 1t assists,
as does college education, IN the
training of the mind.
The reasons for studying theory are
manifold and incontrovertible.
First-Theory will give you a dis
eliminating mind, which is as essential
in music as in literature. When you
listen to music you will do 1t in a
critical and understanding manner
You will not carp, but comprehend.
Second-You will know why you like
certain kinds of music and why you
dislike others, which is as necessary as
knowing why certain pictures have an
appeal" and others have none.
Third-It will enable you to look
through reams of music, and 70 choose
the wheat from the tares, AS you
