THE following outline of a plan for
l. the collecting and developing OF
Negro music in one center will un-
doubtedly prove of interezt to the
many students Of the Seautiful song
literature all musicians unite in ac-
claiming the keystone Of national
music. The Washington Conservatory
of Music and School of Expression,
Harriet Gibbs Marshall, president,
sends out the presented synopsis of the
plan:
This institution was founded in
1908. not only to develop the musical
talent of the Negro. but to preserve
and develop his folk songs.
Realizing now as never before the
keen appreciation of Negro music and
the interest manifested in collecting
this music as it has been preserved
in the Southland. the Washington
Conservatory OF Music, as a center
for the work. desires to bring before
persons thus interested the matter
of undertaking this task Immediately.
The objectives are:
This center to affiliate with the
music departments of all schools of
the Negro.
To equip students with complete
technical knowledge CT music and to
encourage racial expression, that its
individuality may not be smothered
and lost.
To collect Spirituals and Negro mel
odies throughout the South and all
books already published based on this
music.
To specialize in arrangement and
composition based on Negro melodies
with a definite plan for schools This
arrangement to preserve as nearly as
possible the true soul. sincerity and
depth of the original musical express
sion of the race.
To make contribution. through
composition of the soul of the colored
American of today.
The plan is as follows:
Adequate methods Of research
which will begin at once collecting
all material possible before valuable
melodies produced by the Negro in
bondage are lost.
There will be three departments
department of research. department
of composition and department of
publication. affiliating with musical
institutions, musical department of
schools and churches.
Music to be arranged to cover all
branches of music study and to meet
the needs of the church, the school
and the artist.
This plan will produce in the United
States music based on melodic
themes and motives which will be
rich in color. soulful in expression and
uplifting and inspiring to the race
which produced it and the people
who enjoy it.
