HAROLD BAUER, world famous
= pianist and teacher, has again
been engaged by the New England
Conservatory OF Music In Boston,
Mass, to conduct a master class at that
institution from July 9 to August 8.
More than ordinary interest In Mr..
Bauer's methods comes from the fact
that not only pianists may pursue this
course, either as performers or au-
ditors, but he also invites all musi.
clans to attend who feel that obser-
vation would be OF value to them in
their art. In addition, the conserva.

Anita Schade and meeting regularly
to learn Of the close INTERVENING Of
German literature and German music.
In October Of this season, when
Richard Dehmel' was the subject of
= talk, the musical program included
compositions by Schumann, Brahms,
Schubert and Strauss. In November,
Prof. Arnold Werner-spanhoofd lee
tured on The Origin Of the New

PIRATE musical program following
and in December the society cele-
brated the 150th anniversary Of
Weber when Miss Schade read q
paper on Wagner at Weber's Grave"
and excerpts from the composers
works were given by Norma Simonson
and Henry Gregor.
A T THE January meeting, the presi-
dent, Miss Schade, spoke Of the ro-
mantle trend in poetry and music
further illustrated by music from the
composers OF the romantic school, Fol-
lowing an evening devoted to German
American Poetry in February, the So
ciety dedicated its March assembly to
Goethes' Faust" with talk on The
First Performance Of Goethe's Faust in

Schade, with musical settings of parts
OF Faust and other poems Of Goethe

Miss Schade in April, and in May the
program was dedicated to "Lugwig

While the activities of the Literary
Society are confined to German poets
and writer's whose influence is domi-
nant throughout the German musical
repertoire, other efforts have taken
other paths. Mary liant Couch has
conducted series OF lectures at the
Womens City Club under the inter-
esting title Of Adventures in Music"
and DR.. Barnes, head of the public
school music, has given an intensely
instructive and comprehensive series
of lectures on "Milestones in Amer
lean Music" Valuable talks on Schu-
bert and Beethoven by Otto Torney
Simon have increased understanding
OF these masters. Monthly "Sym-
phonologues" were held at the Arts
Club this Winter in which the pro-
grams OF the National Symphony were
analyzed, and weekly talks by Edwin
Hughes on The Technique of Inter-
probation at the Piano." . lecture re-
cital by Oscar Seagle, the well known
vocal teacher Of New York, and one by
Marion Bauer on "The Relations Of
Present-Day Music to the Past" both
under the auspices of the Washing
ton Teachers Association, have taken
care OF other branches Of music study,
HERE Is reason to be proud OF the
progressive spirit Of local musicians
who are constantly trying in more
ways than those mentioned above to
perfect themselves in the knowledge
and understanding Of music. On a
foundation Of this kind can be laid the
superstructure Of real artistry both in
performance and appreciation which Is
the goal that must ever be before the
eyes Of the music public Of the Nations
Capital. There is much still to be
done which only time can accomplish.
but the seeds have been sown and are
already bearing fruit in the enthusiasm
OF doing and the character Of re-
sponse to music in general.

ute to the growth of knowledge and
appreciation, besides drawing into its
many fields, types of people who other
wise would have no opportunity to join
in the pleasure which music making
gives. These are the backbone of any
citys musical undertakings and were
not the interest fostered by the various
means by which music lovers could
get together, no effeort to incorporate
the great artists in regular concert
series could be successful.
Taking first place in the possibility
of reaching the most people are the
several choral groups. many drawing
their personnel from the local church
choirs. These groups have gone farther
in musical study then the church
repertoire and have prepared the great
choral works of the master composers
for public performance. While Tine
Messiah has been heard many times
given by the Washington Oratorio So
ciety, and thus kept before our musical
consciousness, the choral horizons have
been widened this Winter by the per
formances of the Brahams' Requiem"
Saint-Saens "150th Psalm" and
Taylor's The Chambered Nautilus" by
the Washington Choral Society
Through the presentation of these
works, new impetus to musical ap-
probation was given birth and the
large number Of singers in this group
made acquainted with the greatest en-
semble compositions.
THE National Choral Union. under
the direction of Hugh Ross, a
man Of wide experience in this type
Of work, has started new thoughts
and ideas terminating In the choir
groups Of the city. This is one Of
the most constructive endeavors ever
incorporated in local musical life
and its possibilities are inexhaustible.
The various choirs OF the city have
branched forth in major undertakings
such As the presentation of "Hora
Novissima" by the Hamline Church
Choir, the sacred choir festival held
this Spring at Mount Vernon Place
M. E. Church South, the concerts
by the combined choirs Of Mt
Pleasant Congregational and National
City Christian Churches, the Sunday
evening concerts of the A Cappella
Choir at First Congregational Church,
the Spring concert Of the Adult
Department Chorus Of Calvary Bap-
tist Church and many others Of equal
importance.
Reaching another group Of musi-
clans entirely Is the Elizabeth Somers
Glee Club of the Y. w. G. A., which
brings together the talent to be found
among the women whose main In
terest Il in the business field. The
several glee clubs, such As the George
Warrington University Clubs, the
Schubert Singers, the Lovette Choral
Club, the Department Of Agriculture
Chorus and the Department of
Agriculture OrchestrA are training
musicians in q finer understanding
Of music and the different elements
that make for artistry.
While these groups are employed
In active participation in per-
formances, there are other societies
which contribute to the cultural ad-
vancement Of music by making known
the story Of the lives of great musi-
clans or in studying the growth Of
musical forms. Foremost among the
flrst group Is the German Literary
Society, founded some years ago by
