MUSIC
Governor B aid w i n
Designates May S
National Music
w e e k in
Connecticut.
Connecticut.

Hartford, April Ex-Governor
Raymond E. Baldwin today des-
ignated the week beginning May
5 as National Music Week in
Connecticut.
In asking all Connecticut social
and music organizations to CO.
operate with the National Assoc
iation, Governor Baldwin said:
National Music Week will again
be observed from May 5th through
May 18th.
at is appropriate, I think, that
Connecticut take particular cog
nizance Of the observance, for it
was in the little town of Salem
in 1885, that the first music school
in America, Music Vale," was
founded by Orranel Whittlesey.
"For Is years, this institution
which educated musically inclined
young men and women from all
Eastern states, was able to flour
ish. Until the original building
burned in 1868, the Music Vale
Seminary in Salem was the back
bone of music training in the
Americas.
Reconstruction took place i'm
mediately after the burning of
the school, but the weight of years
had dimed the enthusiasm of DR..
Whittlesey and the institution
closed its doors in the early 7O's.
DR.. Whittlesey passed away in
1876, at the age ofN75.
II ask the people of Connecticut
