US AND MUSIC
CREATION

There win never be a strictly
@American music" such as is being
urged and predicted by sections of
the musical world OF this country,
according to DR.. Frank Damrosch,
director of the institute of Musical
Art. recently merged with the
Juilliard Musical Foundation as its
principal school OF music.
1T is not because of lack of mu-
steal talent in America" DR.. DAM
rosch explains, tand not because
Of slavish following of older cotln-
tries, but because before this coun-
try of so many peoples and in
Eluences shall have sufficiently
eolid foundation for a national niu-
sic and before its Emergencies can
Be crystalhzed into any definite
style, there will be no national
music anywhere.
THE arts are a form of life ex-
preston Dr. Damrosch said, just
as are games and costumes and
manners, We find characteristic
costumes, different from those worn
IN the rest of the world, in the
communities least in cemmunica-
ton with other countries. So it is
with music. National music, strong
" marked by the characteristics
Of its own people, grew up in the
days when a range of mountains
divided two groups of people as.
completely as il it were an ocean
between them, and when oceans
were permanent barriers to most
communication
To-day what are national boun-
darfes? We have tunneled the
mountains and even fly over them,
while swift liners and the cable,
and now radio, has made the width
OF the Atlantic Ocean a fact only
IA geography.
America has not had a truly
national music in the past because
OF all that has been said so often.
We were a new people, without the
lore and folxsongs of an older race,
and we became an heterogeneous
people so early in our history
that 8 foundation based on com
mon qualities was impossible.
