Instrumental Music in Schools:
Anyone who has had experience in
training a volunteer chair in kernel).
town or rural community knows the
difficulty in securing a balance of
parts, .due largely to the fact that the
majority of such singers are but in-
different readers, lacking in compre-
hension of the simple chord combina-
tions, and can sing only the air. 'The
voices which are alto in..quality• are
often unable to 'carry an independent
part, the tenors sing soprano,:• the
basses ditto; except that,they•trans-
pose it to. the lowest possible octave
in their range: It is certainly a diffi-
cult problem to meet. The most satis-
factory, if not the; only, solution lies
in having music taught as a school
subject, so that a child receives train-
ing therein from the morning of his
first entrance to the evening of his
graduation. He will then have no dif-
ficulty in singing the part for which
he is 'fitted. As a rule, the most satis-
factory choir singers are those who
have gained experience through part
singing in connection with school
work; perhaps as members of a spe-
cial chorus or glee club..
The school lnusie of to -day, how-
ever, only partly fulfils its mission if
it fails to take account of the desires
and ambitions of the pupils to become
instrumental performers. Even in
small schools this branch of niusic is
being carried on in connection with
school work with a considerable de-
gree of success. The piano seems to
attract the greatest number. It is
probably the most suitable means by
which a child may gain early musical
experience, and furnishes excellent
preparation for the 'study of almost
any instrument in which he may wish
to specialize later. The violin is in-
creasingly popular, and the brass in-
struments are gaining in favor. Ad-
vice as to the choice of an instrument
and encouragement to continue in
study and practice will make it pos-
sible to arrive at that most desirable
goal of school enterprise, an orchestra.
In itself it is a benefit to both school
and community, and many of its mem-
bers after leaving school will be effi-
