IN CLASSIC music
Photograph Companies State
Public Taste Is Changing
for the Better.

The increase in the proportion of
classical music appearing in the lists
OF new records announced by the va
rious phonograph companies is a mat
ter for more than passing comment.
Five years ago there would have been
10 wide market for music of this
lass. Ten years ago 1t Is doubtful IL
a phonograph record of this type
would have attracted any customers
except among the mHsically learned
The beauty of canned music" as
the scoffers call il. is that it creates
an appetite for the best in musical
literature. Ten years hence we shall
find in the homes of the people an
understanding and an appreciation of
good music far greater than many
expect There is reason to believe
that the eminent solo artists of the
future will not be obliged to confine
their appearances only to the large
cities. Men and women who have
heard these artists in their ghostly
vulcanized rubber selves will strive
to hear them in the flesh and will fol-
low their work with the liveliest ap
probation and interest
1t has often been said that the peo.
pie who live during an era offchange

that anything extraordinary is hap
pening. Perhaps some OF US are-in

QUEEN VICTORIA
WASAG00D SINGER
Early In Life Showed Aptitude
For Music-Was Pa
troness of Art.

The centenary of Queen victorias
birth, celebrated by a general holi-
day throughout Great Britain, recalls
to the present day world among the
other great qualities of this notable
woman, her deep, personal apprecia-
tion of music and her constant activi-
ties as a patroness of the ART.
Victoria was a skilled musician her
self. her marked ability showing it,
self even in childhood At eight she
sang for the Irish poet. Thomas
Moore, and a little later Felix Men
delssohn, who heard her when he vis-
tied Buckingham Palace. said her
singing was quite faultless.
When she was a very little girl her
mother, the Duchess of Kent, in order
to give her pleasure, had Lyra, the
ffVe-year-old prodigy of that time,
whose skill on the harp was most re-
markable, play for her. The children
were left alone for short while, and
when the queen mother returned, she
found the little princess heaping her
own toys on the musician in token of
her appreciation of the enjoymen mt
Lyra had given her.
At thirteen Victoria awarded the
prize to successful competitors at a
great Welsh musical festival. When
she was fifteen she is reported to
nave Ottn as InuCn interested III Ine
quaint ballad singing of a strolling
musician as in the racing which she
was at that time observing. On her
eighteenth birthday her uncle, King
William w, whom she later succeed
ed, presented her with a very hand
some piano. This gift she priced
highly all her life.
Queen Victoria was fond OF every
kind of instrumental music, and at
her Highland castle, Balmoral, had a
piper play on his pibroch every morn
ing at Z to wake her. At Bucking-
ham Palace and Windsor Castle she
invited many of the famous musicians
of the day to come and play for the
royal family. Struggling genius, too,
found in her a generous and encour-
aging friend.
Because of the queens great love
OF music il was humorously said in
her day that all the sailors in the
royal British yachts had to pass a
musical examination before being ap-
pointed, and that all orders were
given in song.

AMERICAN FATHERS
LOVED GOOD MUSIC
Washington, Jefferson, and
Franklin Were Patrons of
the Fine Art.

The celebration of Independence
Day for several years past has been
less marked by noisy fireworks than
by tuneful music. The note of peace
and victory that enters for the FIRST
time will be neither strident nor
crashing. but will harmoniousIy bleno
with the symphony of the celebration.
Which reminds us that the Father
OF His Country was himself a music
lover. Washington could not express
himself musically, and on one occas-
ion even wrote regretfully to Francis
Hopkinson, now recognized as the
first American composer: II can
neither sing one of the songs nor
raise single note on an instrument"
He, therefore, took other means of
gratifying his musical taste, one of
these being to buy his wife's grand
daughter, Nellie, a forte piano" then
a very new instrument, as well as a
harpsichord, for which he paid $1,000.
To hear Nelly Custis sing and play
was one of the greatest pleasures of
his advanced years.
Thomas jefferson. unlike Washing
ton, was a trained musician, being
both good singer and an expert vio-
linist. While in Paris, he corre-
sponded on musical topics with Hop
kinson, who besides being a composer,
an inventor of musical instruments
and a performer. was also a member
OF the Continental Congress and a
signer OF the Declaration of Independ-
ence. Jefferson took an interest in
presenting in Paris Hopkinson's i'm
provements on the harpsichord. He
is known to have discussed the matter
with DIR. Benjamin Franklin, who in

the performances.
