SPECIAL COURSES
OFFERED LEADERS OF
!, COMMUNITY SINGING

Madison, Wis. Aug. 11.-Special
courses r being offered by the Uni
veraity: of Wisconsin for the training
OF community musical leaders, for
whom, according to Prof. P. w. by
ksrna of the school Of music there is
now a great demand. He declared the
financial Remuneration offered to such
leaders OF community musical effort is
worthy Of more consideration than It
has hitherto, received and that the
war has given a great impetus to COM
munttyssinging, choral work, and band
and orchestra music - valuable COM
naunity effort.
Teaching school. children to sing is
only = part of the work." the profess
SCR said. Community singing is a vital
phase. In cities Alike Pittsburgh and
Rochester the direction Of bands and
~orchestras in the schools is an i'm
portant part Of the program. City
musical work offers an even larger
field. Cincinnati recently appropriated
$4,000 for the salary OF the man 10
direct municipal music and 81, 900 for
his office helm. Other cities are pre-
pairing to fol@w this step but men for
positions like this are difficult to find.
Juvenile bands and Boy Scout bands
are being formed but trained leaders
are needed to head them.
1T is not necessary that a commun-
tty musical leader should be able to
do all these kinds Of work but he
should have a general knowledge Of
them and then specialize in one
branch"
