THE  MUSICAL  TREASVB7. 


A  LESSON  IN  LOVE. 

A  TALE. 

"  What  is  the  matter,  little  woman  ? " 

"  Only  tired,  John." 

Lina  Reynolds  looked  up  as  she  spoke,  to  smile  bravely 
into  the  face  bending  anxiously  over  her. 

"Tired,  Lina?"  he  said,  lifting  the  little  figure  as  he 
spoke,  and  taking  his  wife  like  a  child  upon  his  knee. 
"  What  have  you  been  doing  to  tire  you?" 

"Only  the  day's  work.  Don't  worry,  John,"  for  a 
shade  passed  over  the  kindly  face. 

"I  don't  worry;  but  I  can't  see  what  makes  you  com- 
plain so  often  of  being  tired.  I  am  sure  the  housework 
ain't  so  much.     Other  women  do  it !  " 

There  was  just  a  little  fretfulness  in  John's  tone,  though 
he  did  not  mean  to  be  unkind. 

"  I  know  they  do.  Mrs.  Harper  has  four  children,  and 
takes  care  of  them  in  addition  to  housework,  besides  doing 
pUes  of  sewing.  Perhaps,  John,  it  is  because  I  have  not 
had  experience  in  country  work,  and  don't  manage  weU, 
I  will  learn  better  after  awhile.  Now,  tell  me  what  you 
did  in  town. " 

"  I  did  quite  well.  Sold  the  whole  crop  of  wheat  at  a 
good  price,  and  put  another  instalment  in  the  bank  for  the 
Stanley  farm." 

"  Your  heart  is  set  on  that  farm,  John." 

"  Indeed  it  is  !  Let  me  once  own  that  clear  of  debt,  and 
I  shall  be  a  happy  man.  It  is  the  best  land  in  the  country, 
and  the  house  is  twice  as  large  as  this  ! " 

Lina  thought  of  larger  floors  to  scrub,  more  rooms  to 
clean,  and  additional  work  of  all  kinds,  and  swallowed  a 
little  sigh  that  nearly  escaped  her. 

"John,"  she  said,  rather  timidly,  "don't  you  think  if 
you  spent  part  of  the  money  on  this  house  we  might  be 
very  hajipy  here  ?  " 

"Spend  money  on  this  house?"  cried  the  astonished 
John.     "  Why,  what  on  earth  ails  this  house  ? " 

' '  I  mean  in  things  for  it.  Now,  the  parlour  looks  so 
stiff,  and  is  always  shut  up.  I  was  thinking  if  we  had  a 
pretty  carpet  and  some  curtains  of  white  muslin  or  lace, 
and  a  set  of  nice  furniture,  and — and — a  piano.  Oh,  John, 
if  I  could  have  a  nice  piano." 

John  Reynolds  looked  at  his  wife  as  if  she  had  proposed 
to  him  to  buy  up  the  crovm  jewels  of  Russia. 

' '  A  piano  !    Do  you  know  what  a  piano  costs  ?  " 

"  No.  Aunt  Louise  had  one,  you  know,  ever  since  I 
can  remember.  But  I  think  if  we  had  a  pretty  parlour  to 
rest  in,  in  the  evening,  I  could  play  for  you  and  sing. 
You  never  heard  me  play  and  sing,  John?" 

"  I  have  heard  you  sing,  but  not  lately,"  said  John, 
rather  gloomily. 

"  Oh !  that  was  just  humming  around  the  house.  I 
mean  real  singing.     I  have  lots  of  music  in  my  trunk." 

"  But  you  are  only  a  farmer's  wife  now,  Lina.  I  thought 
you  understood  when  we  were  married  that  you  were  not 
to  have  any  city  finery  or  pleasure." 

"So  I  did,  John.  I  don't  want  any  finery.  I  don't 
want  any  pleasure  but  your  love,  John.  Don't  scowl  up 
you  face  so.  I  am  silly  to  think  of  these  things  at  all. 
i'here,  kiss  me  and  forget  it.  I  am  nicely  rested  now, 
and  I  will  get  your  tea  in  ten  minutes." 

John  put  her  down  with  a  very  tender  kiss,  and  straight- 
way fell  into  a  reverie. 

Lina  Rivers  had  been  a  district  school  teacher  in  Scottfield 
just  four  months,  when  John  Reynolds  offered  her  his  hand 
and  heart.  She  was  an  orphan  fx'om  infancy,  but  her 
father's  sister  had  adopted  and  educated  her  in  a  lie  of 


luxury,  and  died  without  altering  a  will  made  years  before, 
leaving  her  entire  fortune  to  a  charity  asylum.  Lina,  left 
alone,  had  thankfully  accepted  the  position  of  county 
school  teacher,  procured  for  her  by  her  friends,  and  was 
thinking  life  a  hard  burden,  when  John  came  to  brighten 
it.  She  gave  her  whole  gentle  little  heart  into  his  keeping 
at  once,  aijpreciating  at  their  full  value  his  honest,  true 
heart,  his  frank  nature,  his  sterling  good  qualities,  and 
looking  with  the  most  profound  adrniration  upon  his  tall, 
strong  frame  and  handsome  face. 

It  was  a  perfect  love  match,  for  John  fairly  worshipped 
the  dainty,  refined  little  beauty  he  had  married.  And, 
having  married  her,  he  took  her  to  his  home,  and,  in  all 
ignorance,  proceeded  to  kill  her. 

There  was  no  blame  to  be  laid  upon  him.  Living  in  the 
old  farm-house  where  he  had  spent  his  entire  Hfe,  the  one 
ambition  of  his  heart  was  to  own  land,  stock,  barns,  and 
a  model  farm. 

He  had  seen  his  mother  cook,  churn,  feed  poultry,  and 
drudge  all  her  life;  all  the  women  he  knew  did  the  same; 
and  if  Lina  made  odd  mistakes  she  put  a  willing  heart  into 
her  work  and  soon  conquered  its  difficulties.  Surely,  he 
thought,  it  was  an  easier  life  to  be  mistress  of  his  home, 
■ivith  the  Stanley  farm  in  prospect,  than  to  toil  over  stupid 
children  in  a  district  school.  He  had  never  seen  velvet 
carpets  and  lace  curtains,  grand  pianos,  dainty  sUks,  and 
other  surroundings  that  were  Lina's  from  babyhood.  He 
had  never  heard  the  wonderful  music  the  little  white 
hands,  all  rough  and  scarred  now,  could  draw  from  the 
ivory  keys  of  an  organ  or  piano,  or  the  clear,  pure  voice  in 
song.  It  was  an  unknown  world  to  John  where  his  ivife's 
memory  lingered  as  she  scoi^red  tins,  strained  milk,  and 
cooked  huge  dishes  of  food  for  the  farm  hands.  He  would 
have  thought  it  wicked  waste,  if  not  positive  insanity,  to 
draw  from  the  bank  his  hard-earned  savings  to  invest  them 
in  beautifying  his  plain,  comfortable  home. 

And  Lina  iashed  her  conscience  sharply,  telling  herself 
she  was  ungrateful,  repining,  and  mcked.  Was  not  John 
tender,  true,  and  loving  ?  Wiere  among  her  city  friends 
was  there  a  heart  like  his  ?  Had  she  not  known  he  was 
only  a  farmer  ? 

And  so  the  loving  little  woman  toiled  and  slaved,  under- 
took tasks  far  beyond  her  strength,  worked  early  and  late, 
until,  just  one  year  after  his  wedding  day,  John  Reynolds, 
coming  home  to  liis  tea,  found  lying  upon  the  kitchen  floor 
a  little,  senseless  figure,  with  a  face  like  death,  and  hands 
that  sent  a  chill  to  his  very  heart. 

The  doctor,  hastily  svunmoned,  looked  grave,  and  advised 
perfect  quiet  and  rest.  A  girl  was  hired,  and  John  ten- 
derly nursed  the  invalid,  but,  though  she  grew  better,  she 
was  still  pale  and  weak. 

"  Take  her  away  awhile,"  said  the  doctor.  "  Try  change 
of  air.     She  is  overworked." 

"But,"  said  honest,  puzzled  John,  "she  does  nothing 
but  the  housework  for  us  two.  She  has  no  child,  and  our 
sewing  is  not  much." 

The  doctor  looked  into  the  troubled  face.  "You  are  a 
good  man,  John  Reynolds,  and  a  strong  one,"  he  said; 
"  will  you  let  me  tell  you  a  few  truths  ? " 

"Yes.     About  Lina?" 

"About  Lina.  You  remember,  do  you  not,  the  tiny 
antelope  you  admired  so  much  in  the  menagerie  we  had 
here  last  summer  ? " 

"  Certainly,"  said  John,  looking  more  puzzled  than  ever. 

"  Suppose  you  had  bought  that  little  creature,  and  yoked 
it  with  one  of  your  oxen  to  a  cart  to  do  the  same  work  ? " 

"I'd  been  a  fool, "cried  John,  "thathttle  thing  couldn't 
work.    It  is  just  made  pretty  to  look  at  and  i)lay  ^vith." 


TEE  MUSICAL  TBEASTIRT.

"That's  it,  Jolin.  Now,  I  don't  think  God  ever  made 
a  woman  to  look  pretty  and  play,  but  he  made  some  for 
the  rough  work  of  the  world  and  some  for  the  dainty  places, 
some  to  cook  and  scrub,  and  some  to  draw  men's  souls  to 
heaven  by  gentle  loveUness.  Your  wife  is  one  of  the 
latter.  If  you  were  a  poor  man  I  would  have  held  my 
tongue,  but  you  are  a  rich  one.  Give  your  ^vife  a  servant, 
let  her  have  books,  music,  pretty  things  around  her.  Let 
her  rest  from  toil,  and  you  may  keep  her  by  your  .side ; 
put  her  back  in  her  old  place  and  you  may  order  her  tomb- 
stone, for  she  will  soon  need  it.  Don't  put  your  antelope 
beside  your  oxen,  John." 

"I  will  not!  Thank  you !  I  understand.  Poor,  loving, 
patient  heart !  " 

"  That's  right.  Take  her  now  for  a  little  pleasure  trip, 
and  get  back  her  roses ." 

Lina  clapped  her  hands  when  John  asked  her  if  she 
would  lilce  to  spend  a  week  in  New  York,  and  really 
seemed  to  draw  a  new  Hfe  from  the  very  idea. 

It  was  delicious  fun  to  see  John's  wide-open  eyes  as  they 
entered  the  ])arlour  of  the  great  city  hotel  and  were  sho\vn 
into  the  bed-room,  whose  beauties  were  c|uite  as  bewil- 
dering. 

"  The  best  room,"  he  told  the  landlord,  and  Lina  could 
not  repress  a  cry  of  delight,  at  the  vista  of  a  cosy  sitting- 
room  with  a  piano  standing  uivitingly  open. 

"0,  John  !  "  she  said,  "won't  you  go  in  there  and  shut 
the  door  for  five  minutes,  please  ?  " 

John  obeyed,  of  course.  John,  she  thought  gratefully, 
refused  her  nothing  now. 

"How  lucky  I  brought  some  of  my  old  dresses  !  "  Lina 
thought.  "I  have  not  worn  them  since  I  was  a  school- 
marm.  Fancy  Mrs.  Keynolds  scrubbing  the  floor  in  this 
dress ! " 

John  rubbed  his  eyes  and  pinched  himself  as  a  figure 
sailed  in  the  sitting-room,  made  him  a  sweeping  courtesy, 
and  went  to  the  piano. 

Was  that  the  little  woman  who  had  worn  prints  and  sun- 
bonnets  so  long?  The  fair  hair  was  fashionably  dressed, 
and  bands  of  blue  velvet  looped  the  golden  curls.  A  dress 
of  blue  silk,  with  softest  lace  trimmings  and  ornaments  of 
pearls,  had  certainly  made  a  fine  lady  of  Lina.  The  piano 
was  yielding  its  most  bewitching  tones  to  the  skilled  httle 
fingers,  and  John's  bewilderment  was  complete  when  a 
voice  of  exquisite  sweetness,  though  not  powerful,  began 
to  sing. 

Only  one  song,  fuU  of  thrOls  and  quavers,  and  then  Lina 
rushed  from  the  piano  into  John's  arms. 

"  John,  darhng,"  she  said,  "  hold  me  fast.  Don't  let  me 
sUp  from  you  !  " 

"  0,  Lina  ! "  he  groaned,  "  I  was  not  fit  to  marry  such 
a  dainty  bird !     But  I  loved  you,  little  one." 

"  And  I  love  you,  John  ;  rough  old  John.  Let  me  sing 
again.     I  am  very  happy  to-day,  my  husband." 

But  the  wonderful  thrills  filled  the  little  room  now.  In 
a  clear,  pure  voice,  fuU  of  expression,  Lina  sang — 

'*  I  know  that  my  Eedeemer  liveth." 

Every  word  fell  like  hot  tears  on  poor  John's  heart ; 
until,  as  the  last  chord  trembled  upon  the  air,  Lina  turned 
to  him,  stretching  out  her  arms. 

"Taieme  in  your  arms,  John  !" 

He  took  her  tenderly  to  the  room  she  had  quitted  so 
gaily,  and  replaced  her  finery  by  a  white  wrapper  whose 
lace  trimmings  looked  like  fairy  work  to  his  unaccustomed 
eyes. 

"  Are  you  tired,  love?"  he  asked,  with  a  great  spasm  of 
terror  at  his  heart,  as  he  looked  at  the  white,  wasted  face. 


"  Yes,  very,  very  tired,  but  happy,  John ! "  and  with  a 
little  sigh  of  entire  content,  Lina  nestled  down  against  the 
warm  heart  whose  every  throb  she  knew  was  all  her  own. 
The  white  Uds  fell  softly  over  the  violet  eyes,  and  she  slept 
jieaoefuHy  as  a  child. 

Softly  as  she  rested,  the  faint  pink  flush  gathered  on  her 
fair  cheek  and  a  smile  crept  over  her  lips,  while  John, 
bending  over  her,  lifted  his  heart  in  earnest  prayer  for  the 
life  that  made  his  own  so  bright. 

Mrs.  Reynolds  was  to  experience  her  share  of  astonish- 
ment during  her  holiday,  and  it  commenced  by  the  appari- 
tion of  John  the  next  day  in  a  suit  of  handsome  clothes 
that  well  became  his  manly  figure.  There  was  no  foppery, 
but  he  looked  a  gentleman,  though  he  made  more  than  one 
grimace  before  he  got,  as  he  said,  "well  shaken  into  store 
clothes." 

Can  I  describe  that  week  ?  Wliat  was  new  to  John  was 
old  familiar  ground  to  Lina.  Central  Park  was  not  soon 
exhausted,  and  the  little  guide  grew  stronger  and  rosier 
every  day  in  John's  thoughtful  care,  that  provided  plenty 
of  pleasant  excitement,  but  guarded  against  fatigue. 

It  was  early  in  the  afternoon  of  a  sunny  day,  when  the 
train  drew  up  at  Scottfield  station,  and  Johii  handed  his 
wondering  wife  into  a  neat  little  one-horse  carriage  waiting 
for  them. 

"A  new  purchase,  dear!"  he  explained.  "We  are  to 
have  a  drive  every  afternoon.     Dr.  Greyson  prescribed  it. " 

The  house  was  where  it  had  always  been,  but  Lina 
rubbed  her  eyes  and  wondered  if  she  had  been  suddenly 
carried  into  fairy-land. 

The  duU  httle  sitting-room  had  been  papered,  carpeted, 
curtained,  and  transformed  into  a  cosy  dining-room.  The 
stiff  parlour  was  a  very  bower  of  beaiity,  with  a  fine  piano, 
the  daintiest  of  furniture,  soft  muslin  curtains,  and  a 
carpet  covered  with  boquets  of  exquisite  flowers  ;  the  bed- 
rooms were  carpeted  brightly,  and  rejoiced  in  cottage  sets, 
and  in  the  kitchen  the  most  good-natured  of  stout  German 
girls  fairly  shed  tears  when  Lina  addressed  her  in  her  own 
langTiage. 

"But,  John!"  she  cried,  "the  Stanley  farm?" 

"  Is  sold,  dear.  You  were  right ;  we  wiU  make  this 
home  so  lovely  the  Stanley  farm  ivill  never  cost  me  a  sigh. 
Dr.  Greyson  and  his  vrife  took  all  the  trouble  here,  and  I 
have  hired  two  new  hands,  so  as  to  have  a  little  more 
leisure." 

"  But,  John,"  the  httle  wife  said  earnestly,  "I  do  not 
want  you  to  think  me  a  fine  lady — a  doU  to  wear  fine 
clothes  and  live  in  idleness.  I  want  to  be  truly  a  helpmate 
to  you." 

"  So  you  wUl  be,  Lina.  God  meant  no  one  to  be  a  drone 
in  the  busy  hive  of  the  world.  You  are  not  strong,  but 
you  will  find  plenty  to  keep  you  busy  in  superintending 
indoor  arrangements  and  directing  Gretchen.  And  in  our 
drives,  love,  we  will  see  if  we  cannot  find  some  poorer  than 
ourselves  to  comfort  and  aid.  That  mil  be  my  thank- 
offering  for  your  hfe,  my  little  wife." 

The  neighbours  stared  and  wondered.  Comments  upon 
John's  foDy  and  improvidence  fell  from  many  lips,  and  old 
men,  shaking  their  heads,  prophesied  ruin  for  the  Reynolds 
farm. 

But  John  was  as  much  astonished  as  any  of  them,  when, 
after  a  few  years,  he  found  the  farm  yielding  him  a  larger 
income  than  ever  before. 

"I  do  beheve,  Lina,"  he  said  one  day,  to  a  matronly 
Kttle  woman,  who  was  dressing  a  crowing  baby,  "  that 
your  flower  garden  last  year  was  worth  a  hundred  pounds 
to  me." 

"John!" 


THE  MUSICAL  TREASURY. 


"You  see  it  was  to  get  you  the  information  about 
flowers  that  we  first  began  to  subscribe  to  The  Ar/ricul- 
turist :  there  I  found  so  many  hints  that  I  began  to  think 
I  knew  nothing  about  farming.  One  book  after  another 
crept  into  the  house,  and  the  time  I  thought  would  be 
wasted,  taken  from  farm-work,  Avas  spent  in  reading. 
Now,  look  at  the  labour-saving  machines  I  have  bought ! 
See  the  new  stock  !  My  orchard  is  going  to  be  the  best  in 
the  country,  too. " 

"And  my  poultry-yard,  John!  it  was  the  papers  and 
magazines  that  first  gave  me  the  idea  of  a  model  poultry- 
yard.     What  fun  we  had,  John,  getting  it  started  ! " 

"Yes,  indeed.  That  New  York  trip  was  the  best  in- 
vestment I  ever  made,  Lina.  I  saw  so  many  things  there 
that  I  recognised  as  old  friends  when  I  met  them  again  in 
print— the  threshing  machine,  the  rotary  harrow,  the 
improved  plough." 

"And,"  said  Mrs.  Reynolds,  mischievously,  "  the  Milton 
watch,  the  sewing  machine,  the  corals  for  Johnnie  ! 

"Come,  are  you  ready  for  your  drive?" 

"As  soon  as  I  put  on  my  hat  and  get  the  basket  of 
things  for  Mrs.  Good^vin ." 

"It  beats  me,  John,"  said  his  uncle,  one  bright  day, 
"  where  you  find  so  much  money  for  tomfoolery,  new- 
fangled nonsense,  and  fallals  for  Lina,  and  yet  give  so 
much  in  charity.  I  thought  you  were  crazy  to  buy  the 
Stanley  farm." 

"  I  was  once,  but  I  Iiave  something  better  now  than  the 
Stanley  farm.    I  have  learned  how  to  manage  my  antelope. " 

"What?"  But  to  this  day  John  has  never  explained 
that  riddle  to  his  puzzled  relative. 

PROMENADE  CONCERTS. 
The  indoor  or  outdoor  promenade  concert,  which  is  grow- 
ing in  favour  with  the  populace,  has  cost  a  great  many 
tears  and  some  wrath  to  the  "genuine  musician."  The 
whole-souled  man  who  gets  up  at  five  to  write  a  concerto, 
or  to  practise  for  a  private  quartette,  and  who  sits  up  till 
twelve  writing  his  impressions  of  the  last  masterpiece  of 
the  last  musical  phenomenon,  is  apt  to  be  rather  sarcastic 
when  the  promenade  concert  is  mentioned.  It  has  the 
dreadful  taint  of  popularity  about  it,  the  "hoi  polloi" 
seem  to  enjoy  it,  and  for  that  reason,  if  that  alone,  it  is  out 
of  the  category  of  music  proper.  To  his  mind  there  is 
somewhat  of  desecration  in  playing  real  music  to  pro- 
menaders.  Auditors  may  sit,  or  they  may  stand.  Sitting 
is  best,  for  then  the  eyes  can  be  more  conveniently  closed, 
all  the  muscles  relaxed,  and  the  bodily  frame  bx-ought  into 
a  highly  receptive  state,  and  become  an  unobstructed 
channel  for  the  passage  of  the  current  from  the  musical 
batteries  in  the  orchestra  to  the  musical  Swan-Ughts  in  the 
brain.  Standing  is  allowable  where  a  chair  is  not  to  be 
had,  and  is,  indeed,  more  respectful  in  the  case  of  certain 
classes  of  music.  But  to  walk  about  is  a  kind  of  profana- 
tion, which  causes  him  sore  distress-  Therefore  it  is  that 
he  has  noted  with  dismay  the  increasing  support  given  to 
"go-as-you-please  "  concerts,  for  he  does  not  exactly  know 
where  it  will  land  the  country.  It  is  meet  that  we  should 
look  a  little  into  this  matter,  and  find  out,  if  possible,  the 
raison  d'etre  of  the  promenade  concert.  There  is  a  soul  of 
good  in  most  things  evil,  we  are  told,  and  perhaps  we  may 
discover  even  in  this  phenomenon  a  little  utility.  In  the 
first  place,  we  find  that  the  promenade  concert  is  at  once 
an  assertion  and  a  recognition  of  the  great  English  prin- 
ciple of  the  liberty  of  the  subject.  When  you  have  had 
enough  music  you  can  go  away,  without  making  yourself 
am  object  of  observation  or  disturbing  anybody.  At  the 
promenade  concert  you  can  fish  out  the  morceaux  you 


would  like  to  listen  to,  and  you  can  lounge  through  the 
rest.  AVe  should  not  object  to  see  the  principle  extended. 
It  would  be  very  nice  if,  at  the  theatre,  we  might  walk  out 
when  the  sorrowful  heroine  comes  on,  and  have  a  bell  rung 
in  the  adjoining  smoking-room  when  it  was  time  for  the 
funny  man,  or  vice  versa,  according  to  taste.  Then,  if  we 
could  skip  the  scientific  lecturer's  theoretical  instruction, 
and  just  walk  in  to  his  experiments,  his  explosions,  his 
making  a  wheel  go  round  very  fast,  his  throwing  of 
coloured  lights  upon  the  ladies,  and  his  magnifying  a 
million  times  the  ramifications  of  a  toad's  hind  leg,  it  would 
be  very  agreeable  indeed-  We  should  be  very  thankful, 
too,  for  the  same  liberty  at  the  public  meeting,  so  that  we 
might  hear  the  movers  of  resolutions,  and  cut  the  seconders 
and  supporters,  and  leave  at  any  moment  when  a  man 
began  to  talk  about  his  reluctance  to  appear  on  that 
occasion,  or  when  we  were  threatened  with  "  just  one  word 
more,"  or  the  plate.  Then  the  promenade  concert,  if  it  be 
a  hindrance  rather  than  a  help  to  one  art,  has  the  merit  of 
promoting  another.  This  may  be  thought  to  be  rather  a 
negative  virtue,  but  still  we  must  extract  what  good  we 
can  from  a  thing,  though  it  be  not  the  particular  good  we 
seek.  Promenade  music  thaws  the  frozen  tongue.  It  in- 
spires ideas.  It  enables  people  really  to  enjoy  one 
another's  society.  To  this  end,  of  course,  it  requires  to  be 
pretty  loud— as  much  sound  in  the  music,  so  much  talk 
among  the  auditors.  A  roaring  quadrille  stirs  up  the  most 
sluggish  imagination,  and  a  blast  of  a  trumpet  reminds 
the  dullest  of  a  good  anecdote.  Amateurs  hate  .anything 
loud,  of  course,  but  we  really  cannot  see  any  reason  in  the 
nature  of  things  why  music  should  not  be  loud  as  well  as 
low.  The  fact  is,  the  more  cultured  people  get,  the  softer 
and  smaller  they  like  everything :  subdued  colours  in 
pictures,  whispers  in  oral  communication,  mere  hints  in 
the  conveyance  of  ideas,  and  (so  they  say)  microscopic 
helpings  of  food,  till  there  is  a  danger  of  everything  being 
whittled  away  to  nothing.  Green  grass  and  blue  sky  are 
too  glaring,  ordinary  accents  too  grating,  common  language 
too  redundant,  and  a  slice  of  beef  much  too  sensual,  for  a 
great  many  people  already  ;  and  if  this  process  is  to  con- 
tinue without  check,  life  will  become  the  shadow  of  a 
shade.  So  the  promenade  concert  comes  to  the  rescue  in 
its  own  jjrovince,  and  vindicates  the  merits  of  loudness, 
fulness,  and  depth  as  a  correction  to  culture.  There  are 
some  incidental  advantages  of  the  promenade  concert  which 
deserve  a  note.  They  benefit  only  select  portions  of  the 
community,  it  is  true,  but  even  these  should  not  be 
slighted.  Some  people's  receptivity  is  never  fully  de- 
veloped when  they  are  sitting  or  even  walking,  but  only 
when  they  are  leaning  against  something.  Those  who 
have  been  brought  closely  into  contact  with  the  British 
workman,  know  that  he  is  never  so  happy  as  when  he  is 
propping  up  a  wall.  All  through  the  coimtry  you  may 
see  miles  of  him  propping  up  the  houses  and  the  street 
walls,  the  garden  fences  and  the  village  pumps.  This  is 
not  due,  as  might  at  first  sight  appear,  to  the  instinct  of 
self-preservation  and  the  fear  that  the  walls  might  tumble 
down,  but  to  the  fact  that  this  peculiar  posture  encourages 
a  state  of  receptivity  of  the  mind,  and  when  in  it  the  work- 
man can  more  readUy  imbibe  the  latest  local  and  imperial 
intelUgence.  No  doubt  this  is  the  case  with  many  besides 
the  British  workman,  so  that  when  we  see  a  gentleman  at 
the  promenade  concert  taking  a  chair  up,  and  leaning  with 
his  arms  on  the  back,  or  trying  to  screw  his  shoulder 
through  the  wood-work  of  the  orchestra,  or  leaning  back 
over  the  balustrade  till  his  face  is  out  of  sight,  we  may  con- 
clude that  this  is  a  physical  condition  of  receptivity,  and 
that  the  music  only  reaches  him  when  it  is  fulfilled. 


THE  MUSICAL  TREASURY. 


CHURCH  CHOIR  TRAINING. 

By  William  de  Manbt  Seegison. 
Bad  music  in  large  cliurches  is  a  great  national  evil.  I 
have  visited  some  with  a  reputation  for  performing  a  fine 
musical  service,  and  have  found  organ  and  choir  equally 
out  of  tune  throughout,  and  endless  mistakes  ;  in  fact, 
very  bad.  Under  such  circumstances  thousands  of  per- 
sons are  being  given  "stones for  bread"  without  knowing 
it,  they  are  being  accustomed  to  listen  to,  enjoy,  antl 
even  praise,  music  that  is  not  music,  and  to  take  bad  for 
good.  So,  gradually,  popular  taste,  and  the  national  ear 
are  being  vitiated  and  debased  instead  of  being  cultivated 
and  improved.  I  never  hear  such  a  service  as  thi.s  in  a 
large  church  where  there  is  a  wealthy  congregation  with- 
out feeling  inexpressibly  indignant  and  grieved. 

Quietness  and  reverence  should  be  the  watchword.  If 
it  is  possible  to  avoid  it,  the  attention  of  the  congregation 
should  never  be  distracted.  The  waring  of  a  hand  is 
imnecessary,  except  sometimes  in  an  unobtrusive  manner 
for  unaccompanied  singing.  Even  with  a  full  orchestral 
service  in  church,  the  beat  of  the  conductor  should  be 
quiet  with  no  superfluous  flourish. 

The  choir-trainer  organist  should  have  some  one  under 
him  who  can  occasionally  take  the  organ  at  rehearsal,  so 
that  he  may  hear  the  choir  at  a  distance  and  personally 
correct  individuals,  which  can  always  be  done  quietly  and 
unostentatiously,  without  giving  pain.  The  choir  should 
enter  into  the  spirit  of  every  part  of  the  service  they  have 
to  sing,  and  should  endeavour  to  feel,  and  bring  out,  the 
meaning  of  the  words  by  appropriate  delivery  and  hearty 
earnestness.  AU  eccentricities  should  be  studiously 
avoided  and  corrected  at  rehearsal  (the  organist  indeed 
must  watch  himself  closely  in  this  respect).  Sharpness 
of  attack,  crisp  clearness  should  be  attained  by  voices  and 
organ.  There  should  not  be  (to  nse  Mr.  Barnby's  e.x- 
pression)  any  "  ragged  edges  "  to  be  heard. 

The  accompanist  at  the  organ  in  church  is  also  the 
conductor.  To  be  a  good  one  he  must  have  certain  quali- 
fications—anticipation, sharpness,  idealism,  heart,  or  what 
is  called  soul,  the  power  of  touching  a  responsive  and 
.sympathetic  chord  in  the  hearts  of  jiis  hearers  through 
his  medium,  the  organ.  He  must  have  a  power  of  keeping 
people  together,  which  should  be  felt  both  in  congre- 
gational and  in  chorus  music,  so  that  the  hearers  should 
not  be  in  fear,  when  the  music  is  intricate  and  difficult, 
that  things  must  inevitably  go  to  pieces.  In  this  branch 
of  the  choirmaster  organist's  work,  the  old  saying  of  A  rs 
est  celarc  artem,  holds  good;  and,  if  he  is  the  "secret  wire- 
puller behind  the  scenes,"  never  unduly  obtruding  himself, 
but  always  ready  to  help  and  command,  he  will  fill  both 
choir  and  congregation  with  a  sense  of  security  and  con- 
fidence. One  very  important  quaUty  in  an  accompanist 
is  the  conductor's  intuitive  power  of  hitting  the  right 
time  and  rhythm  of  everything  he  attacks  at  once  at  first 
starting.  No  good  effects  can  be  obtained  unless  the 
starts  are  firm,  steady,  and  decided. 


THROAT  DISEASES. 
Every  one  is  familiar  with  the  symptoms  of  sore  throat. 
These  are,  the  irritation  and  soreness,  the  feverish  con- 
dition, hoarseness,  difficulty  of  swallowing  and  speaking, 
&c-  Some  persons  immediately  upon  entering  a  room  or 
railway  carriage  fiUed  with  tobacco-smoke  experience  a 
tickling  and  irritation  of  the  throat,  producing  an  irre- 
pressible hacldng  and  coughing,  results  which  are  apt  to 
follow  the  smoking  of  tobacco  ;  and  alcohol,  especially 
■when  ardent  spirits  are  indulged  in,  -svith  many  persons 


will  produce  a  well-known  and  distressing  soreness  of 
throat.  When  iDredisposition  to  sore  throat  and  cold 
jjrevails,  it  is  a  good  iJau  to  bathe  the  surface  of  the  body 
every  morning  upon  rising.  The  shower-bath  or  regular 
ordinary  immersion  bath  may  be  employed,  or  the  body 
may  be  mopped  with  a  wet  towel  or  sponge,  care  being 
taken  that  the  water  is  }iot  too  cold. 

Great  care  should  be  exercised  mth  regard  to  imder- 
clothing  when  persons  are  susceptible  to  the  affection 
under  discussion.  The  undershirt  and  drawers  should  be 
of  flannel  or  of  a  mixed  material  in  which  wool  is  con- 
tained, such  as  swan's-down,  which  is  far  less  irritating  to 
the  .skin.  Some  persons  are  extremely  intolerant  of  flannel, 
which  in  them  produces  much  irritation.  If  it  can  be 
afforded,  silk  is  the  best  form  of  under  garment.  This 
article  of  dress  should  be  of  loose  textirre,  and  should 
admit  of  being  easily  washed  and  rendered  clean. 

The  climate  of  this  country  being  so  subject  to  variations 
of  temperature,  it  may  be  advisable  to  have  three  kinds 
of  weight  of  the  underclothing — one  of  somewhat  heavy 
texture  for  the  mnter  and  early  spring,  a  second  of  medium 
texture  for  the  spring  and  autumn,  and  a  third,  the 
lightest  texture,  to  be  obtained  for  the  extreme  heat  of 
summer;  but  the  heavy  fabric  should  not  be  changed 
for  the  lighter  until  the  change  of  season  is  positively 
present.  All  imderclothing  worn  during  the  day  should 
be  removed  at  night,  and  turned  inside  out,  so  as  to  be 
thoroughly  dried  and  ventilated  before  the  following 
morning.  The  underclothing  worn  during  the  day  should 
never  be  slept  in,  and  that  worn  at  night  should  never  be 
worn  in  the  day. 

It  is  well  for  individuals  who  are  specially  susceptible 
to  cold  to  keep  the  mouth  well  closed  whilst  in  the  open 
air,  and  in  many  cases  a  resijirator  will  be  found  useful. 
With  respect  to  the  remedies  for  sore  throat,  it  may  be 
stated  briefly  that  it  is  difficult  to  lay  down  any  hard  and 
fast  rules,  as  the  medical  attendant  will  be  the  best 
person  to  consult ;  but  it  may  be  said  that  warmth  is  of 
the  greatest  importance,  and,  if  it  be  possible,  the  sufferer 
should  be  kept  in  a  warm  room,  at  a  temperature  of 
70°  Fah. 

Inhalation  of  steam  is  very  valuable.  This  is  most 
conveniently  carried  out  by  means  of  a  proper  steam 
inhaler  ;  but  if  this  is  not  easily  available,  boiling  water 
may  be  placed  in  a  suitable  vessel  and  the  steam  inhaled. 
Lozenges  of  tannin,  chlorate  of  potash,  tolu,  ratany,  and 
others  are  often  used.  Astringent  gargles  may  also  be. 
employed,  of  which  common  alum  is  perhaps  the  best. 

The  term  sore  throat,  in  a  restricted  sense,  implies  an 
affection  which  is  limited  to  a  small  part  of  the  throat, 
such  as  the  pharynx,  or  merely  the  back  of  the  throat 
and  soft  palate,  and  known  by  the  name  of  pharyngitis  ; 
or  it  may  indicate  far  more  extensive  mischief,  and 
embrace  a  far  larger  area,  extending  to  the  tonsils,  and 
even  to  the  larynx  and  vocal  chords. 

Probaljly  in  the  slightest  ordinary  cold  there  is  always 
a  certain  amomit  of  inflammation  of  the  pharynx  present, 
and  this  is  comparatively  of  mild  significance,  but  when 
the  deeper  structures  are  involved  the  case  becomes  of 
far  more  serious  character. —il/MSicaZ  Standard. 


INSTRUMENTAL  MUSIC  IN  CHURCH. 
By  Henky  Maskell,  Bkecon. 
There  still  remains  in  the  opinion  of  many  people  a 
doubt  as  to  whether  instrumental  music  should  or  should 
not  be  used  in  church  ;  and,  though  this  is  not  always 
publicly  expressed,  yet,  nevertheless,  it  is  occupied  in  the 


« 


THE  MUSICAL  TREASURY. 


ininda  of  many.    Even  that  noble  church  instriunent,  the 
organ,  comes  in  for  a  share  of  adverse  criticism,  it  being 
sometimes  looked  upon  as  an  intruder  (some  say  an  idol) 
in  the  house  of  God,   and  no  aUowauce  is  made  for  the 
great  amount  of  assistance  which  the   singing  receives 
from  the  instrument,  or  how  lamentably  poor  the  general 
effect  (in  most  cases)  would  be  mthout  it.    It  is,  I  think, 
a  very  little  plea  (though  perhaps  laudable  in  itself)  that 
the  voice  alone  is  sufficient  in  church,  and  that  an  instru- 
ment is  not  needed ;    but  let  the  holders  of  this  idea 
consider  whether  this  does  not  often  proceed  more  from  a 
want  of  taste  for  music  rather  than  from  any  other  cause. 
The  voice  is  certainly  of  the  first  importance  in  the  render- 
ing of  any  kind  of  music,  but  in  the  majority  of  cases  it  is 
in  want  of  a  sustaining  power— a  foundation  ujjon  which 
it  can  rely.     How  often  the  singing  would  become  flat, 
dry,   and  unmusical,  were  it  not  for  the  help  it  receives 
from  the  organ ;    besides,   bright,   hearty,  well-rendered 
music  is  a  chief  means  of  attracting  good  attendances ;  and 
few  will  deny  that  our  congregations  in  church  might  not 
be  made  larger.     But  while  the  organ  is  by  many  allowed 
to  be  a  necessary  and  proiser  means  of  elevating  and  im- 
proving church  music,  the  introduction  of  striug  and  other 
instruments  into  the  service  would  be  looked  upon  as  very 
objectionable,  and  probably  cause  a  general  exodus  among 
the  congregation.     Let  lis  see  whether  this  would  be  right. 
In  looking  at  the  subject  from  its  true  point,  we  find  in 
the  Scriptures  that  many,  and  jierhaps  all  the  then  known 
kinds  of  insti-uments  were  used  in  the  old  Jewish  Church. 
David,  in  the  Psahns,  urges  us  to  praise  God  with  all 
kinds  of  instruments— the  sound  of  the  trumpet,  psaltery, 
harp,  timbrel,  and  with  the  loud-soundinj  cymbals  ;  and,  as 
these  were  to  be  \ised  as  a  means  of  praise  to  God,  where 
could  a  more  fitting  place  be  found  for  them  to  render 
such  service  than  in  His  own  house  ?    To  say  that  when 
Christ  came  to  the  world  the  ancient   law  departed  is 
certainly  true,   but  this  applies  to  the  abolition  of  the 
types  and  shadows  of  our  Saviour's  first  coming  rather 
than  to  the  alteration  of  the  manner  of  praise  in  His 
temple.     Since  such  is  the  case,   why  exclude  the  use  of 
instrumental  music  from  the  church ?— why  banish  those 
things   which  in  ages  gone  by  were  used    as    means  of 
praise  to  God?    To  the  reverent  worshippers  the  sound  of 
music,  rather  than  diverting  the  soul  from  the   service, 
materially  adds  to  a  devotional  frame  of  mind.     While  on 
this  subject  we  may  notice  the  objections  which  some  have 
to  the  performance  of  oratorios  and  other  sacred  works  in 
church.     In  my  opinion,  the  people  who  raise  such  objec- 
tions are  inflaenced  more  by  their  own  narrow-mindedness 
— not  to  say  ignorance— rather  than  by  a  sincere  desire  to 
maintain  the  sacredness  and  perfect  pm-ity  of  the  church. 
To  argue  that  such  works  are  given  for  the  pleasure  and 
vanity  of  man  is  hardly  sufficient  reason  to  justify  the 
promoters  of  such  performances  in  giving  serious  considera- 
tion to  the  views  of  the  ' '  unco  guid,"  who  are  happily 
fast  becoming  an  unimportant  minority  incapable  of  doing 
much  harm.     It  is  now  universally  admitted  that  the  use 
of  instrumental  music  in  church  is  a  right  and  orthodox 
medium  for  the  praise  of  God  ;  but,  whUe  rejoicing  that 
this  is  so,  I  would  say,  let  us  be  careful  that  we  neglect 
not  to  worship  with  our  hearts  as  well  as  with  the  feeling 
of  devotion  induced  by  the  "heavenly  sounds"  of  sacred 
melody. 

ANTONIN  DVORAK. 
One  of  the  most  prominent  of  the  coming  men  of  music 
indisputably  is  Aitonin  Dvorak.     Although  not  by  birth 
one  of  our  own  countrymen,  his  celebrity  is  almost  entirely 


British.  Until  he  won  Ms  first  great  success  in  this 
country,  when  about  three  years  ago  his  "  Stabat  Mater  " 
came  in  the  light  of  a  revelation  to  English  audiences,  he 
was  deemed  merely  one  of  the  Dii  minores  of  modem  musical 
Germany.  He  was  patronised  by  Brahms  and  championed 
by  Joacliim,  but  few  beyond  a  certain  circle  were  familiar 
even  with  his  name.  Antonin  Dvorak  is  duly  grateful  for 
the  position  the  good  taste  of  British  music  lovers  has 
enabled  him  to  acMeve.  He  has  devoted  himself  as- 
siduously to  the  study  of  our  manners  and  language.  AU 
the  most  important  of  his  forthcoming  compositions  are 
written  specially  for  England,  and  part  of  each  year  vnU 
henceforth  be  spent  by  him  in  this  country. 

The  career  of  Antonin  Dvorsik  reads  like  a  volume  of 
romance.  His  fame  is  far  too  recent  to  warrant  the  ad- 
mittance of  his  name  to  the  pages  of  our  standard  bio- 
graphical dictionaries.  The  composer  is,  however,  himself 
by  no  means  averse  to  referring  to  the  humbleness  of _  his 
origin.  Antonin  Dvoriik  was  l3orn  in  1841  in  the  neigh- 
bourhood of  Mulhausen,  or,  as  it  is  called  in  the  Bohemian 
dialect,  Nelahozeves,  a  village  with  a  few  hundred  in- 
habitants. His  father  combined  the  offices  of  village 
slaughterman  and  rural  tavern-keeper.  Young  Dvorak 
himself  in  his  early  years  served  as  pot-boy  at  the  inn, 
and  assisted  his  father  to  slaughter,  skin,  and  dress  cattle. 
By  the  laws,  even  the  poorest  lad  in  the  meanest  Bohemian 
village  is  compelled  to  learn  music  as  a  jjart  of  his  iirimary 
education.  Dvorilk  was  taught  at  the  village  school,  and 
roughly  learned  the  rudiments,  and  to  sing  and  fiddle  on 
the  vioHn.  When  he  could  play  a  little  he  belonged  to 
the  village  band,  which  was  wont  to  strike  up  the  dance 
for  the  lads  and  lasses  of  the  neighbourhood  after  church 
was  over  on  Sundays.  The  dancers  contributed  a  few 
pence  each  to  the  expenses  of  the  band,  and  these  slender 
earnings  were  divided  among  the  members.  When  D  vorJik 
was  thirteen  he  went  to  work  for  his  uncle  at  the  village 
of  Zlonic,  close  by  Schau.  There  the  village  schoolmaster 
was  a  somewhat  superior  musician.  Dvor;tk  used  to  sing 
in  the  choir,  and  his  master  gave  him  a  few  lessons  on 
the  organ.  Finding  him  an  apt  pupil  the  schoolmaster 
allowed  him  to  copy  music,  and  even  to  play  old  ecclesias- 
tical services  from  a  figured  bass,  an  .art  which  the  young 
musician  taught  himself.  He  also  had  a  few  piano  lessons, 
and  was  initiated  into  the  rudiments  of  counterpoint. 

When  Dvorak  was  sixteen  he  was  sent  to  Pra.gue  to 
study  at  the  College  of  Organists,  then  directed  by  Joseph 
Pitsch.  Antonin  Dvorak  only  spoke  the  Bohemian  dia- 
lect, and  his  first  difficulty  was  to  teach  himself  German. 
Then  he  was  compelled  to  live  upon  the  scanty  allowance 
of  a  little  over  fifteen  shillings  per  month.  The  struggles 
of  a  young  man,  even  at  Prague,  to  lodge,  feed,  and  clothe 
himself  on  about  £10  per  annum  can  only  be  imagined. 
When  Pitsch  died  he  was  succeeded  by  a  far  kinder  master, 
one  Kreyci,  and  under  his  guidance  young  Dvorak  first 
made  the  acquaintance  of  the  music  of  Mozart,  Mendel- 
ssohn, and  Beethoven.  He  says  the  first  real  orchestral 
work  he  ever  heard  was  when  he  stole  into  a  rehearsal  of 
Beethoven's  choral  symphony,  under  Spohr.  In  1860, 
when  Dvorak  was  nineteen,  he  became  a  violinist  in  a  band 
which  played  at  atfes  and  dancing  halls,  and  his  wages 
were  £25  per  annum.  He  earned  a  Httle  overtime  by 
playing  in  a  sextet  in  order  to  amuse  the  insane  in  a 
private  lunatic  asylum.  In  1862  he  obtained  a  post  in  the 
band  of  thu'ty-six  at  the  new  Bohemian  Opera  House  at 
Prague,  under  Mayer,  and  it  was  about  this  time  that  his 
friend  Bendl  for  the  first  time  lent  him  the  score  of  the 
Beethoven  septet.  In  1871  he  left  the  theatre,  in  order  to 
try  and  get  a  living  of  at  least  £50  per  annum  by  teaching. 


TEE  MUSICAL  TREASURY. 


During  this  struggle  Dvorak  was  not  idle.  To  shortly 
after  this  period  (in  1873)  belongs  the  "  Patriotic  Hymn," 
announced  for  the  last  Worcester  Festival,  but  since  given 
in  London.  He  also  wrote  an  opera,  "  Konig  and  Ktihler," 
avowedly  in  the  style  of  the  "  Meistersinger."  It  was 
tried  by  the  orchestra,  unanimously  "  protested,"  and 
withdrawn. 

Dvorak  was  shortly  afterwards  appointed  organist  .at 
Adelbett  Church,  Prague.  He  sent  in  his  opera  and  his 
symphony  in  F  to  the  Minister  in  Vienna,  and  for  these 
he  obtained  the  enormous  Government  grant  of  £40. 
Flushed  with  success,  Dvorak  married,  and  has  since  lived 
a  very  happy  wedded  life.  A  year  later  he  made  a  second 
attempt,  sending  in  an  opera  entitled  "Wanda"  and  his 
"Stabat  Mater."  Both  were  ignominiously  rejected. 
The  "  Stabat  Mater  " — which  estidilished  his  fame  among 
a  more  intelligent  community,  and  has  set  the  musicians 
of  two  hemispheres  wondering  whether  we  have  or  not 
discovered  a  second  Beethoven — %yas  not  deemed  worthy 
an  encouraging  grant  of  £40  by  Austrian  bureaucracy. 
He  tried  again,  and  got  £50.  Eventually  he  sent  in  several 
works,  and  among  them  the  pianoforte  concerto  in  G 
minor,  first  introduced  in  this  country  by  Mr.  Manns  at 
the  Crystal  Palace  in  October,  18S3.  Br.ahms  hapjieued 
to  see  it,  and  he  and  the  renowmed  Viennese  critic,  Han- 
slick,  exerted  themselves  sufficiently  to  obtain  for  Dvorak 
a  gr.ant  of  £60.  Besides  this.  Brahms  asked  Siinrock,  of 
Berhn,  to  publish  some  of  the  Bohemian  composer's  works, 
.and  thus  they  were  brought  to  the  notice  of  Joachim. 
'  Mr.  Manns  had  already  introduced  some  of  Dvorak's  Slav 
music  at  the  Crystal  Palace.  But  his  very  name  was 
almost  unknown.  Joachim's  will  is,  however,  puissant  at 
the  popular  concerts,  and  when  he  recommended  the  pro- 
diiotion  of  Dvorak's  Sextet  in  A,  Mr.  Chappell  at  once 
accepted  it.  The  work,  first  given  Feb.  23,  1880,  made  a 
great  impression,  but  it  was  not  until  1883,  when  the 
"  Stabat  Mater  "  was  produced  here,  that  the  name  of  the 
composer  came  prominently  to  the  front. 

The  evening  of  March  10, 1883,  may  hereafter  be  deemed 
historical.  Very  few  of  the  small  audience  had  the 
smallest  knowledge  of  the  work,  the  vocal  score  of  which 
was  placed  in  the  hands  of  most  of  them  as  they  entered 
St.  James'  HaU.  Yet  another  "Stabat  Mater,"  rejected 
by  the  Austrian  Minister,  was  not  likely  to  interest  those 
who  attended  as  a  business  duty,  expecting  to  chronicle 
yet  another  pretentious  failure.  But  a  very  few  minutes 
after  Mr.  Barnby  had  lifted  his  hAton  served  to  stifle  the 
small  talk,  and  to  concentrate  the  attention  of  the  audience 
upon  the  music  now  heard.  Rarely  in  our  time  has  such 
a  master  work  from  a  totally  unexpected  source  been 
sprung  upon  a  sceptical  public.  Dvorak  leaped  at  a  bound 
into  fame.  The  Philharmonic  Society,  sorely  in  need  of  a 
lion,  invited  him  to  come  to  England.  Messrs.  Novello's 
firm,  who  had  published  his  "  Stabat  Mater,"  warmly  and 
generously,  according  to  their  wont,  looked  after  his 
interests.  Dvorak  came  here,  conducted  at  the  Philhar- 
monic, and  directed  a  gala  performance  of  his  "  Stabat 
Mater "  at  the  Albert  Hall.  The  senior  partner  of 
Novellos  gave  a  jHt  in  his  honour  at  Norwood,  and 
Dvorak  declared  he  had  never  before  seen  such  a  congre- 
gation of  beautiful  ladies.  But  his  tastes  were  not  amid 
the  garish  lights  of  society.  He  was  at  home  at  Mr. 
Oscar  Beringer's,  and  vastly  preferred  his  laager  beer,  his 
pipe,  and  his  chat  mth  friends.  Dvorak  returned  last 
autumn  to  direct  his  "  Staliat  Mater"  at  the  Three  Choirs 
Festival,  and  again  this  summer  to  conduct  at  the  Phil- 
harmonic his  new  symphony  ia  D  minor,  expressly  com- 
posed for  thia  coimtiy; 


Hitherto  most  of  the  music  we  have  heard  from  the  pen 
of  Dvorak  has  been  that  composed  in  his  early  years, 
when  the  yoimg  married  man  was  struggling  for  an  artist's 
stipend  of  £40.  Now,  however,  for  the  first  time  he  comes 
before  us  at  the  greatest  of  our  festivals — that  of  Birming- 
h.am — with  a  cantata  specially  written  for  this  country. 
He  has  in  hand  an  English  oratorio  on  the  subject  of 
"  Samson  and  Delilah,"  and  other  works.  He  thus,  having 
cast  in  his  lot  with  us,  has  a  special  title  to  be  considered 
as  a  Coming  Man.  In  the  judgment  of  many,  he  is  one  ot 
the  sole  sur^ving  hopes  of  continuing  the  long  line  of 
gi'eat  Continental  composers.  The  star  of  Brahms  is  on 
the  wane ;  Kaff  and  Wagner  are  dead ;  Gounod  is  well 
stricken  in  years ;  Verdi  cannot,  and  Boito  will  not,  write 
any  more.  The  j)osition  of  the  younger  generation  of 
French,  German,  and  Italian  writers  is  overshadowed, 
both  here  and  abroad,  by  the  advance  of  the  composers  of 
England,  from  Mackenzie,  Vilhers  Stanford,  Goring 
Thomas,  and  Coweu  downwards.  It  is  to  Dvorak  that 
the  eyes  of  Europe  turn  in  expectation  of  hailing  another 
of  the  race  of  really  gi-eat  Continental  musicians.  There 
are  some  who  are  nervous  lest  .adulation  and  the  process 
of  "  academising  "  should  injure  that  which  promises  to  be 
a  great  and  original  genius.  On  this  point  it  would  be  the 
veriest  nonsense  to  attempt  prophecy.  The  result  of  the 
liighly  important  essay  at  the  Birmingham  Festival  will, 
to  a  certain  extent,  tend  to  indicate  whether  high  hopes 
are  justified  or  otherwise. 

The  success  ot  the  Birmingham  Festiv.al  was  indisput- 
ably won  by  Herr  Dvorak's  cantata,  "  The  Spectre's 
Bride."  Despite  a  ghoulish  libretto,.and  a  puerile  English 
version,  distilled  from  the  original  Bohemian  through  a 
German  translation,  the  swing  of  Dvorak's  music  carried 
all  before  it.  Anything  more  exciting  than  the  chain  of 
choruses — led  by  Mr.  Santley,  descriptive  of  the  terable 
march  of  the  spectre  and  his  Lady  love,  and  relieved  by 
the  duets  of  the  unfortunate  couple  —  has  rarely  been 
heard.  This  work  (the  first  choral  composition  ever 
written  by  DvorAk  for  an  English  festival)  shows  the 
Bohemian  composer  at  his  very  strongest.  The  choral 
parts  are  somewhat  difficult,  but  it  will  doubtless  be  the 
privilesre  of  many  choral  societies  in  the  provinces  to  over- 
come them. — Fi'jaro. 


A  GREAT  obstacle  to  any  improvement  in  our  English 
sacred  mu.sic  is  the  prejudice  which  many  peoiile  still 
retain  to  what  they  call  a  "performance"  in  Clmrch — 
ignoring  the  fact  that  the  clergyman  always  "performs" 
not  only  the  sermon  but  a  great  deal  of  the  service.  They 
do  not  object  to  the  vicarious  offering  of  prayer  by  one 
man  ;  but  they  are  shocked  by  the  idea  of  a  fairly  repre- 
sentative number  of  people  discharging,  in  the  name  of 
tlae  congregation,  a  duty  for  which  the  others  have  not 
taken  the  trouble  to  quality  themselves.  And  the  very 
.assistance  they  mil  not  accept  in  Church,  they  dehght  to 
have  in  the  concert-room.  For.  in  England,  there  are 
thousands  of  people,  destitute  of  general  musical  pro- 
clivities, who,  at  least  annually,  attend  "  performances  " 
of  the  "Messiah;"  and  do  so  distinctly  as  a  religious 
exercise,  yielding  their  sympathies  freely  to  the  influence 
of  its  sublime  strains,  and  consciously  warmed  and  ele- 
vated in  spirit  by  the  increased  pathos  and  power  with 
which  the  music  endows  the  words.  How  funnily  moulded 
our  "principles"  are?— Zlr.  Hiles,  in  the  "  Quarti 
Musical  Kcviev)."

BELLS. 

Aetemtjs  Ward,  having  upon  one  occasion  stated  a 
most  abstruse  and  at  the  same  time  ridiculous  pro- 
blem to  a  London  cabman  with  the  object  of  con- 
fusing him  and  enjoying  his  confusion,  was  met  by  the 
query,  "Now,  then,  guv'uor,  don't  you  think  that's 
rather  a  dry  subject  ?  There's  a  good  deal  to  be  said 
on  both  sides."  The  same  may  with  much  propriety 
be  said  of  the  subject  of  this  article,  at  least  in  so  far 
as  the  abundance  of  controversial  material  is  concerned. 
Our  literature  abounds  with  references  to  bells,  the 
poets  naturally  and  as  matter  of  covirse  dealing  with 
bells  ill  their  pleasantest  connections.  Is  it  of  the 
Sabbath  bells  they  speak? — they  are  "  sweetly  calling 
unto  prayer. "  Do  they  wish  to  convey  to  our  minds 
the  hilarity  of  a  party?— then  "all  went  merry  as  a 
marriage  bell ;"  or  to  inspire  us  with  thoughts  of  the 
exhilarating  delights  of  sleighing  ?— then  the  sleigh- 
bells  "tinkle,  tinkle,  tinkle  m  the  icy  air  of  niglit." 
We  are  not  unmindful  that  the  poets  also  keep  in  mind 
the  more  sombre  and  mournful  occasions  in  which  bells 
are  brought  into  requisition,  nor  do  we  forget  that  the 
"  wild  tocsin"  appears  in  effective  verse,  but  jji-obably 
the  bells  are  referred  to  more  frequently  in  their  joyous 
than  in  their  sorrowful  associations.  It  is  not  our 
purpose  in  this  short  sketch  to  treat  of  bells  either 
from  the  poetical  point  of  view  or  from  the  point  of 
view  of  those  who  regard  bells  of  every  size,  colour, 
and  tone  as  an  unmitigated  evil,  but  to  endeavour  to 
preserve  an  even  balance  in  the  matter.  Church  bells, 
being  more  particularly  concerned  with  the  public 
weal  and  the  puWic  woe,  naturally  demand  our  first 
consideration.  From  our  childhood  we  have  been 
accustomed  to  regard  a  bell  as  an  almost  indispensable 
portion  of  ecclesiastical  equipment.  Most  of  us  can 
recall  a  youthful  period  at  which  we  were  disinclined 
to  admit  the  claim  of  a  building  to  the  name  of  church 


which  did  not  possess  a  bell  of  some  description. 
Probably  many  people  will  be  of  opinion  that  the 
present  proportion  of  churches  without  bells  is  by  no 
means  too  large.  In  country  districts,  church  bells, 
rung  at  regular  times,  have  for  generations  been  of 
great  usefulness.  The  ringer  of  the  church  bell  is  in 
some  villages  regarded,  and  justly  regarded,  as  a  public 
benefactor.  Does  he  not  leave  his  cosy  bed  at  an  early 
hour  in  all  sorts  of  weather  to  announce  to  the  working 
people  of  the  district  the  approach  of  the  hours  of 
work,  and  is  there  not  a  sense  of  satisfaction  when  in 
the  summer  evenings  the  eight  o'clock  curfew  intimates 
that  there  are  still  some  hours  of  leisure  in  store  for  the 
villagers  ?  Apart  from  this  utilitarian  point  of  view, 
however,  there  is  a  solemn  peacefubiess  about  the 
church  bell  as  its  chime  reaches  us  across  the  meadow 
on  a  summer  morning,  or  as  it  calls  the  worshippers 
to  service  in  the  c^uiet  evening  hours.  This  indeed 
seems  to  us  to  be  the  most  fitting  mission  of  the  church 
bell.  Were  it  not  that  it  is  usually  the  only  available 
alarm  in  the  country,  it  would  certainly  be  released 
from  its  incongruous  duties  of  announcing  indiscri- 
minately a  fire  or  a  meeting  of  heritors !  We  in 
Scotland  have  hitherto  been  served  principally,  though 
not  exclusively,  by  the  single  bell,  while  in  England 
chimes  are  preferred,  and  consequently  much  more 
common.  Here  is  a  point  in  regard  to  which  we  may, 
like  Artemus  Ward's  cabman,  remark  that  there  is  a 
good  deal  to  be  said  on  both  sides.  The  manipulation 
by  skilled  ringers  of  a  really  good  peal  of  bells,  say  in 
a  suburban  district  of  London  on  a  quiet  evening, 
produces  what  we  are  inclined  to  regard  as  the  perfec- 
tion of  bell  music. 

We  have  thus  dealt  in  a  general  way  with  what  may 
be  called  the  more  agreeable  aspects  of  the  subject. 
We  cannot  overlook  the  fact  that  there  are  other  views 
which  probably  deserve  as  much  atteutiou  as  those  we 
have  stated.  In  towns  we  not  infrequently  meet  with 
people  who  entertain  out-and-out  abolitionist  views  in 
regard  to  bells.  If  they  had  their  will,  bells  of  every 
description  would  be  ruthlessly  rooted  out  from  the 
midst  of  the  community.  All  of  us  feel  at  times  the 
abolitionist  spirit  upon  us,  for  is  not  .'■'olomon's  dictum 
that  "there  is  a  time  for  everything"  often  absolutely 
ignored?  Many  of  those  who  have  charge  of  bells 
have  an  unhappy  knack  of  fixing  upon  the  wrong  time 
for  theh'  performances.  We  have  in  our  mind  a  certain 
London  street  in  which  an  ardent  campanologist  per- 
sists in  playing  "  Abide  with  me,"  and  other  suitable 
melodies  for  hours  on  end,  and  that  in  spite  of  emphatic 
neighbourly  remonstrances.  Again,  it  is  all  very  well 
to  ring  in  the  New  Year,  but  when  your  church  is 
situated  in  a  populous  locality  in  which  probably  there 
are  not  a  few  sick  people,  it  becomes  a  question  whether 
the  sentimental  ought  not  to  give  way  to  the  practical. 
It  may  be  doubted  whether  a  church  situated  among 
rows  of  houses  is  quite  the  place  for  musical  bells,  and 
yet  do  we  not  continually  hear  in  such  a  situation  the 
notes  chasing  each  other  up  and  down  the  scale,  the 
reverberations  caused  by  the  proximity  of  the  Jiouse 
rendering  the  sounds  well-nigh  insupportable.  Some 
bells,  too,  which  are  meant  to  be  musical,  are  nothing 


THE  MUSICAL  TREASUBY.

more  than  a  miserable  jingle.  In  towns,  the  single  bell 
is  probably  on  the  whole  the  more  tolerable  as  bells  go. 
At  the  same  time  it  can  scarcely  be  said  that  this  is  a 
comfort  to  the  hater  of  bells.  No  one  who  has  lived  in 
Edinburgh  can  have  failed  to  hear  the  frightfully  un- 
musical effects  produced  by  single  bells  at  a  little 
distance  from  one  another.  There  is  no  doubt  but  that 
in  some  districts  they  have  constituted  tliemselves  a 
nuisance  wliich  ought  to  be  got  rid  of.  It  has  often 
struck  us  that  the  best  way  out  of  the  difficulty  would 
be  to  have  a  really  good  resounding  bell  for  each 
district,  which  should  serve  all  the  churches.  The 
time  of  day  is  past  which  required  frequent  daily  bell- 
ringing. 

An  amusing  episode  occurred  last  month  in  the 
Glasgow  Town-Council,  the  occasion  being  a  recom- 
mendation that  the  salary  of  the  bell-ringer  in  Black- 
friars  church  should  be  increased  from  the  munificent 
yearly  £10  to  £12  in  consideration  of  the  fact  tliat  the 
artist  also  played  tlie  cliimes  in  the  cluirch  spire  I  One 
councillor  described  the  music  as  "  unpleasant, "  and 
thought  the  young  man  should  be  dissuaded  from 
attempting  liymn-tunes  on  a  cliime  of  five  bells  !  A 
bailie  suggested  tliat  the  councillor's  ear  was  deficient, 
whereupon  that  gentleman  vindicated  liis  musical 
character.  Another  bailie  said  they  could  not  expect  a 
tine  tune  for  £12.  He  thought  the  man  was  playing 
up  to  his  wage.  This  latter  idea  was  too  much  for  the 
grave  assembly,  which  consequently  relieved  itself  with 
a  hearty  laugh  ;  but  the  whole  discussion,  which  ended 
in  the  preservation  of  the  status  quo,  only  proved  how 
true  it  was  that  a  "  good  deal  could  be  said  on  both 
sides."

A  TONIC  SOL-FA  COLLEGE  FOR  SCOTLAND. 

Edinburgh,  \Uh  Sept.,  1885. 

Sir, — Seeing  you  have  solicited  an  expression  of  opinion 
regarding  the  desirabUity  of  establishing  a  Tonic  Sol-fa 
College  for  Scotland,  I  venture  to  offer  a  few  remai'ks 
thereanent.  There  cannot  be  the  sHghtest  doubt  that  but 
for  the  introduction  of  the  tonic  sol-fa  system,  the  know- 
ledge of  music  would  have  l)een  much  less  generally 
diffused  in  Scotland  than  it  happily  is  at  the  present  time. 
In  numerous  rural  districts,  up  to  quite  a  recent  date, 
there  was  comparatively  little  interest  shown  in  the  study 
of  music,  in  consequence  of  the  difficulty  experieuced  in 
mastering  tlie  technicaUties  of  the  old  notation,  added  to 
the  fact  that  few  persons  located  in  sucli  districts  had  then 
the  necessary  knowledge  combined  with  the  faculty  for 
lucidly  explaining  the  principles  of  music  to  the  average 
rustic  mind.  The  new  notation  has  quite  revolutionised 
this  state  of  affairs,  being  now  eagerly  studied  by  large 
numbers  of  our  country  cousins. 

It  certainly  seems  absurd  to  think  that,  with  such  a  good 
worlc  going  on  in  Scotland,  we  should  still  require  to  go 
across  the  Border  for  our  certificates  of  merit ;  and  I  trust 


the  proposal  you  have  now  put  forward  will  be  taken  up 
heartily  and  energetically  until  that  anomaly  ceases  to 
exist,  and  we  have  our  own  Tonic  Sol-fa  College. 

Scotland — usually  in  the  van — seems  to  be  wofuUy  be- 
hind in  matters  musical.  Even  although  we  have  a 
Professor  and  a  College  of  Music  attached  to  our 
University,  yet  degrees  cannot  be  conferred  upon  the 
students  who  attend  until  they  also  pass  an  examination 
in  England  or  Ireland.  Surely  in  sol-fa  matters  we  could 
beat  this  sham  college,  at  least  in  some  respects ! 

I  would  suggest  that,  before  any  meeting  is  held  or  any 
action  taken,  the  subject  should  be  thoroughly  well  ven- 
tilated, through  the  medium  of  your  admirable  paper,  by 
the  free  expression  of  opinion.  A  great  deal  mil  be  gained 
if  correspondents  will  study  moderation  of  language  and 
avoid  personaHties  and  recrimination,  as  these  only  prevent 
the  great  bulk  of  ordinary  readers  from  perusing  an  other- 
wise useful  discussion . 

It  seems  to  me  the  chief  obstacle  in  the  way  will  be  the 
rooting  out  of  the  prejudices  and  petty  jealousies  of  the 
numerous  sections  into  which  those  who  might  combine  for 
such  a  useful  purpose  are  divided — upon  such  matters  as 
the  scope  of  the  college,  and  even  as  to  its  location.  The 
former,  of  course,  would  be  subject  for  debate  at  a  meeting 
convened  for  that  object ;  and  as  to  the  latter,  I  cannot 
conclude  without  suggesting  that  Edinburgh  would  be  a 
most  suitable  centre  for  the  establishment  of  such  a  college. 
Most  institutions  nowadays  require  a  paper  or  journal  to 
convey  to  the  general  public  a  record  of  the  work  engaged 
in  and  the  results  obtained  ;  and  I  am  certain  it  would  be 
most  desirable  and  beneficial  to  incorporate  such  particulars 
within  the  Musical  Ti'easurij  and  Star,  which  have  already 
such  a  wide-spread  and  well-deserved  circulation. 

Do-Bat-Me. 


Glasgow,  Sept.  15,  1885. 

Dear  Sir, — I  am  very  pleased  to  see  such  a  lively  dis- 
cussion in  the  Treasury  over  the  proposal  to  establish  a  Tonic 
Sol-fa  College  north  of  the  Border.  I  think  the  proposal 
is  good,  and  the  sooner  it  is  given  effect  to  the  better  for 
Scotland.  Every  such  efi^ort  must  tend  to  do  good,  and 
should  be  very  cordially  welcomed  by  every  genuine  sol- 
faist. 

Why  "  Musicus  "  should  have  been  thrown  into  such  a 
naughty  fright  over  it  one  can  only  guess  "Musicus" 
has  long  ago  ceased  to  have  any  influence  in  musical 
circles  here,  and  his  clumsy  and  selfish  efforts  to  pose  as 
an  authority  in  teaching  music  are  rated  by  your  corre- 
spondents at  their  true  value.  Do  not  let  the  cause  of 
progress  suffer  because  some  fossiUsed  stiok-inthe-mud 
has  become  alarmed  lest  his  craft  should  be  endangered 
by  this  movement. 

Glasgow  is  not  such  a  hot-bed  of  these  gentry  as  your 
Galashiels  correspondent  seems  to  think.  There  are  more 
men  in  Glasgow  than  "Musicus" — men  who  have  quite  as 
good  a  claim  to  be  heard,  and  who  know  more  about  teach- 
ing and  notation  than  he  with  all  his  sneers  at  the  lessons 
in  the  Treasury.  I  do  not  wish  to  be  held  as  sympathis- 
ing in  the  least  with  the  views  "  Musicus  "gave  expression 
to,  and  beg  to  assure  you  that  I,  at  least,  shall  be  very 
pleased  to  see  such  a  college  established  soon  for  the 
benefit  of  musical  students  and  for  the  good  of  sol-fa.  — I 
am,  &c.,  A  Glasgow  Teacher. 

Edinburgh,  lUh  Sept.,  1885. 
Sir,— On  page  8  of  the  Musical  Treasury  ior  September, 
there  appears  an  article  advocating  the  establishment  of  a 
Tonic  Sol-fa  College  for  Scotland,    In  that  article  every

TEE  MUSICAL  TREASURY. 


effort  is  made  to  convey  tlie  impression  that  the  Tonic  Sol- 
fa  College,  London,  is  an  exclusively  "English  "  institution. 
Nothing  could  be  further  from  the  truth.  Lite  our  Army, 
Navy,  Postal  Service,  Parliament,  &c.,  it  is  British,  though 
its  headquarters  are  in  London ;  hence  the  writer  in  the 
Treasury  betrays  either  great  ignorance  or  an  intention  to 
■willfully  mislead  his  readers.  It  can  hardly  be  ignorance, 
so,  in  the_  belief  that  it  is  misrepresentation,  I  may  remark 
that  Tonic  Sol-faists,  as  a  class,  are  too  intelligent  to  be 
hoodwinked  so  easily ;  and  it  may  be  safely  predicted  that 
any  attempt,  by  such  questionable  means,  to  establish  a 
rival  College  to  that  in  whose  solid  worth  they  have  justly 
so  much  confidence  will  utterly  fail. 

After  a  sentence,  in  which  the  \vriter  gets  considerably 
"mixed"  in  regard  to  "notation"  and  "music,"  not 
seeming  to  be  aware  that  they  are  different  things,  he 
begins  his  second  paragraph  by  saying — "As  most  of  our 
readers  know,  our  English  neighbours  are  in  advance  of 
us  in  the  matter  of  higli-class  tonic  sol-fa  education. "  This 
may  be  met  by  the  counter  statement  that,  probably  "most 
of  our  readers  Icnow  "  the  very  reverse  to  be  the  case — 
namely,  that  in  proportion  to  the  niunber  of  its  inhabitants, 
Scotland  possesses  more  highly-educated  tonic  sol-faists 
than  England  and  Ireland  taken  together. 

That  there  is  some  inconvenience  caused  to  Scottish 
tonic  sol-fa  students  by  their  College  being  in  London, 
may  be  admitted ;  but  this  could  be  obviated,  and  the 
whole  question  solved,  by  forming  branches  of  the  parent 
College  wherever  it  might  be  practicable. 

Tothe  late  lamented  John  Curwen  there  were  neither 
English,  Irish,  nor  Scotchmen  ;  there  were  only  his  fellow- 
men  whom  he  wished  to  benefit.  So  it  comes  to-day  that 
"The  Tonic  Sol-fa  College  for  the  People,"  the  found- 
ing of  which  was  the  crowning  achievement  of  his  life,  is 
open  to  aU  on  equal  terms,  without  distinction  of  race, 
country,  colour,  or  creed.  Therefore,  to  speak  of  the 
Tonic  Sol-fa  College  as  being  "  English,"  is  as  unjust  as  it  is 
imgenerous — at  once  an  outrage  upon  truth  and  a  libel  on 
the  memory  of  a  truly  philanthropic  and  noble-minded  man . 

Trusting  that  these  remarks  may  recall  the  true  state  of 
the  case  to  the  minds  of  such  tonic-sol-faists  as  may  have' 
forgotten  it — if  any  such  there  be, — I  am.  Sir,  &c., 

Thos.  Young. 

Edinburgh,  Idtli  Sept.,  1885. 
SiK, — The  proposal  now  being  ventilated  through  your 
columns  to  establish  a  Tonic  Sol-fa  College  in  Scotland, 
^vill  never  come  to  anything.  I  am  positively  certain  of 
this.  The  reasons  are  not  far  to  seek.  -Any  proposal  or 
suggestion — it  matters  not  a  jot  how  disinterestedly  it  is 
made — having  reference  to  sol-fa  matters,  emanating  fi-om 
Edinburgh ,  will  not  be  supported,  or  even  countenanced, 
by  the  great  men  of  Glasgow.  On  the  other  hand,  they 
will  strive  with  might  and  main  to  ignominiously  crush  any 
scheme  that  is  set  afoot ;  and  they  will  do  this  without 
giving  the  slightest  consideration  to  the  fact  that  such 
scheme  might  do  a  vast  amount  of  good  to  promote  the 
interests  and  welfare  of  the  sol-fa  movement.  It  is  well 
enough  known  that  there  is  no  profession  imder  the  sun 
where  more  bUnd  jealousy  exists  than  in  the  musical  pro- 
fession ;  and  while  this  applies  to  miisicians  of  all  types 
and  classes,  the  evil  is  seen  at  its  very  worst  amongst  those 
who  are  connected  with  the  tonic  sol-fa.  I  state  this  fear- 
lessly and  challenge  contradiction.  Any  such  proposal, 
therefore,  I  believe  to  be  altogether  out  of  the  question, 
more  particularly  as  it  comes  from  the  Metropolis.  Glas- 
gow sol-faists  have  a  very  poor  opinion  of  their  brethren  in 
Edinbiurgh ;  and  though  they  will  cheerfully  submit  to  be 


led  by  the  nose  by  any  other  town  or  institution  outside 
their  own  country,  they  would  make  any  sacrifice  rather 
than  co-operate  with  their  friends  in  the  capital — no  matter 
how  great  the  benefit  to  them  might  be. 

You  win  no  doubt  receive  the  support  of  a  certain  sec- 
tion of  sol-faists  who  are  wise  enough  to  see  that  Scotland 
is  ripe  for  something  more  substantial  than  a  branch  of  an 
English  college  ;  but  as  that  section,  I  am  afraid,  wiU  be 
small  in  number,  it  will  not  go  for  much.  I  would  faiu 
wish  you  success,  but  the  case  is  too  hopeless. — Yours,  &c., 
Jakvis. 

Edinburgh,  25th  Sept.,  1885. 
Sir, — I  have  read  with  interest  your  short  articles,  and 
the  letters  which  they  have  called  forth,  in  reference  to  the 
provision  of  a  Tonic  Sol-fa  College  for  Scotland.  I  am 
always  pleased  to  see  anything  which  has  for  its  end  our 
improvement  in  matters  musical,  and  I  feel  certain  no  one 
will  regret  the  discussion  in  your  columns.  Perhaps  you 
will  allow  me  to  say,  however,  that  I  think  the  present 
College  in  England  meets  all  the  requirements  of  the  case. 
If  there  were  anything  distinctive  in  Scottish  tonic  sol-fa, 
as  compared  with  English  sol-fa,  then  there  might  be  some 
reason  for  the  founding  of  an  institution  which  should  bear 
testimony  to  our  national  characteristics  ;  but,  seeing  that 
sol-fa  is  sol-fa  and  nothing  else,  why  should  we  bother  about 
rearing  an  institution  which  would  merely  do  what  the 
English  College  is  at  present  efficiently  doing,  i.e.,  putting 
its  students  through  a  course  of  training,  and  then  per- 
mitting them  to  affix  foiu-  letters  to  their  names.  So  far 
as  the  sending  of  cash  across  the  Border  is  concerned,  I 
think  we  need  not  vex  ourselves  m>ich  about  it.  Tonic 
sol-faists  are  certainly  a  very  enthusiastic  class  of  people, 
but  I  am  inclined  to  advise  them  to  temper  their  zeal  with 
discretion.  If  it  were  resolved  to  have  a  Tonic  Sof-fa 
College  for  Scotland,  sol-faists  would  require  to  be  prepared 
to  thi-ust  their  hands  into  their  pockets  to  some  purpose, 
unless  they  were  content  to  merely  rent  a  room  in  some  of 
the  less  brilliant  parts  of  the  City  in  which  to  carry  on  col- 
legiate operations.  To  put  the  Quaker  question — "Do  the 
sol-faists  sympathise  £20  each  or  so?" — Yours,  &c.,

6  Tannadice  St.,  Dundee,  lOlh  Sept.,  1885. 

Dear  Sir, — I  was  very  sorry  at  reading  the  correspon- 
dence in  this  month's  Treasury,  anent  the  opening  of  an 
Edinburgh  College  for  the  propagation  of  tonic  sol-fa,  to 
find  that  Mr.  J.  C.  Grieve  had  been  very  unwarrantably 
brought  into  the  correspondence.  But  doubly  sorry  was  I 
that  men  talented  to  write  such  letters  would  waste  such  an 
amount  of  paper,  ink,  and  time — that  most  valuable 
adjunct  of  all — in  running  down  such  a  novice  as  the  one 
who  styles  himself  "Musicus"  must  be.  Let  us  live  the 
like  of  him  down.  First,  as  to  Mr.  J.  C.  Grieve  ;  he  is  a 
man  I  have  had  correspondence  with,  but  never  saw.  He 
has  done  me  so  much  good,  however,  that,  should  I  ever 
meet  him,  I  shall  at  least  shake  him  most  warmly  by  the 
hand.  I  have  WTitten  the  tests  which  "Musicus"  has 
taken  iipon  himself  to  call  confusion,  and  have  found  them 
very  beneficial  confusion  indeed. 

But,  Mr.  Editor,  we  want  proposals  for  the  working  of 
our  Scottish  College,  and  not  for  the  confounding  of  an 
ignoramus.  I  would  not  have  the  thing  hurriedly  gone 
into,  but  have  aU  points  considered.  Would  it  not  be 
better  to  include  staflf  notation  as  well?  Would  it  not 
also  l^e  as  well  to  have  all  sorts  of  instrumental  music 
wrought  up  ?  These,  and  many  others,  are  points  well 
worthy  our  attention,  and  will  better  repay  us. — Truly 
yours,  BEiMBOElAir.

The  following  letters  appeared  in  the  Glasgmo  Mail : — 
TONIC  SOL-FA  COLLEGE  FOR  SCOTLAND. 

Sir, — In  my  last  letter  it  appears  I  have  most  un- 
wittingly and  unintentionally  given  offence  to  a  gentleman 
in  Edinburgh,  whose  name  I  did  not  even  know.  There 
is  not  a  syllable  personal  to  any  one  in  my  letter  ;  I  merely 
offered,  as  requested,  some  suggestions  in  reference  to  an 
article  in  the  Mimical  Treasury,  for  which  pubhcation  I 
onl3'  knew  the  editor  as  resi^onsible.  Why  this  should  have 
brought  down  upon  me  such  a  severe  personal  attack  I 
really  cannot  imagine.  No  exceijtiou  is  taken  to  my 
remarks  upon  the  proposal  contained  in  this  article,  and 
all  that  I  have  said  in  reference  to  the  "  new  notation  "  is 
admitted  by  Mr.  Grieve,  but  he  adds  that  what  I  com|ilain 
of  is  "  intentional.''  I  highly  approve  of  musical  problems 
being  submitted  for  solution,  but  I  hold  very  strongly  that 
all  such  should  be  set  in  a  musical  manner,  so  that  they 
can  be  sung  and  resolved  coiTectly.  Neither  of  these 
requirements  can  be  apiJied  to  those  at  page  IS  of  the 
Treasury.  They  are  intended  to  embrace  the  niceties  of  the 
enharmonic  scale,  though  these  are  frequently  used  in  a 
very  peculiar  manner,  but  they  can  only  be  even  apparently 
resolved  by  using  all  the  imperfections  of  the  tempered 
scale.  This,  I  need  hardly  say,  is  no  true  musical  solu- 
tion, but  destroj's  the  problem  altogether.  It  is,  further, 
very  confusing  to  the  student,  leading  to  the  idea  that  the 
enharmonic  and  tempered  scales  are  convertible.  If  so, 
why  trouble  them  with  the  enharmonic  scale  at  all  ?  I  am 
very  pleased  to  see  attention  called  to  the  niceties  of 
musical  notation.  Nothing  has  so  liindered  the  progress 
of  vocal  music  as  imperfect  notation  and  illegitimate 
transition,  the  necessary  and  constant  causes  of  the  rough 
singing  and  falUng  in  pitch  so  destructive  to  our  choral 
music. — I  am,  &c.,  Musions. 

Aug.  19. 

Sir, — "  Musicus  "  in  his  second  letter  says  I  admitted 
in  my  last  all  that  he  said  in  his  first  letter.  I  scarcely 
think  I  did.  However,  I  cannot  admit  all  that  he  says  in  his 
later  epistle.  He  asserts  that  the  examples  on  i^age  1.5  of 
the  Treasury  are  not  set  in  a  musical  manner,  as  they  can 
neither  be  sung  nor  resolved  prox^erly ;  and  he  makes  some 
remarks  upon  the  niceties  of  the  enharmonic  scale  in  such 
a  general  way  as  may  be  taken  to  mean  anything  or 
nothing,  just  as  one  chooses.  What,  I  would  ask,  has  the 
enharmonic  scale  to  do  with  the  examples,  as  examples? 
They  are  written  in  tonic  sol-fa  notation  (at  least,  they  are 
supposed  to  be),  and  that  notation — nor,  indeed,  any  nota- 
tion under  the  sun — cannot  depict  properly  the  niceties  of 
the  enharmonic,  nor  yet  of  the  chromatic — no,  nor  even  of 
the  diatonic  scale  correctly.  Certain  niceties  of  intonation 
are  often  implied  in  the  tonic  sol-fa,  as  well  as  in  other 
notations,  although  they  are  not  definitely  expressed ;  and 
I  hold  that  the  notation  of  the  tests  is  as  conformable  to 
tonic  sol-fa  principles  as  to  -m-ite  1 1  s  in  a  cadence  tran- 
sition when  m  r  d  are  the  actual  sounds  represented.  As 
to  the  tests  not  being  singable,  that  will  depend  on  the 
singer.  The  exactness  of  the  sounds  produced  by  the 
singer  does  not  depend  upon  whether  the  notes  are  named 
m  f e  or  m  bah,  but  upon  the  perception  and  appreciation 
of  the  vocaUst  concerning  the  interval  he  is  required  to 
produce,  and  his  ability  to  produce  it.  "  The  imperfec- 
tions of  the  tempered  scale,''  which  "  Musicus  "  says  are 
necessary  for  the  proper  resolution  of  the  tests,  have 
really  nothing  to  do  in  the  matter.  How  these  "  imper- 
fections "  are  to  be  employed  in  the  resolution  is  a  kind  of 
a  puzzle,  as  the  notation  cannot  represent  them,  and  it  is 


only  by  means  of  the  notation  that  the  resolution  is  to  be 
arrived  at.  "  The  imperfections  of  the  tempered  scale  " 
can  only  exist  in  the  imagin.ition,  so  to  speak,  of  any  one 
looldng  at  a  piece  of  tonic  sol-fa  music ;  and  the  nature  o£ 
these  "  imperfections "  will  depend  on  the  individual 
interpretation  put  upon  the  sol-fa  syllables.  I  maintain 
that  the  tests  are  not  only  practical,  but  that  they  are 
scientifically  coiTect.  Had  this  been  a  musical  journal  I 
would  have  sent  you  ,a  minute  analysis  of  the  tests  com- 
plained of,  showing  that  no  tempered  intervals  are  neces- 
sary for  their  proper  solution,  but  that  every  interval 
employed  may  be  strictly  in  accordance  with  just  intona- 
tion. I  thoroughly  agree  ivith  "  Musicus  "  in  his  con- 
cluding sentence,  that  "imperfect  notation  and  illegitimate 
transition  "  have  seriously  "  hindered  the  cause  of  vocal 
mu.sic ; "  and  I  would  only  add  it  is  for  the  very  purpose 
of  enabling  students  to  understand  those  imperfections 
and  illegitimacies  that  the  Treasury  test  problems  are  partly 
designed.— I  am,  &c.,  John  C.  Gbieve. 

8  EankeiDor  Street,  Edinburgh,  Aug.  24. 


AN  EVENING  AT  CHOPIN'S. 
It  is  about  nine  o'clock  in  the  evening.     Chopin  is  seated 
at  the  i^iano,  the  room  is  dimly  lighted  by  a  few  wax- 
candles.     Several  men  of  brilliant  renown  are  grouped  in 
the  luminous  zone  immediately  around  the  piano. 

Heine,  the  sad  humorist,  leans  over  his  shoulder,  and 
as  the  tapering  fingers  wander  meditatively  over  the  ivory 
keys,  asks  "  if  the  trees  at  moonhght  sang  always  so  har- 
moniously ?  " 

Meyerbeer  is  seated  by  his  side ;  his  grave  and  thoughtful 
head  moves  at  times  with  a  tacit  acquiescence  and  delight, 
and  he  almost  forgets  the  ring  of  his  own  Cyclopaean 
harmonies  in  listening  to  the  deUeate  Arabesque-woven 
mazourkas  of  his  friend. 

Adolphe  Nourrit,  the  noble  and  ascetic  artist,  stands 
apart.  He  has  something  of  the  grandeur  of  the  Middle 
Ages  about  him.  In  his  later  years  he  refused  to  paint 
any  subject  which  was  wanting  in  true  dignity.  Like 
Chopin  he  served  art  with  a  severe  exclusiveness  and  a 
passionate  devotion. 

Eugene  Delacroix  leans  against  the  piano,  absorbed  in 
meditation — developing,  it  may  be,  in  his  own  mind,  some 
form  of  beauty,  or  some  splendid  tint,  suggested  by  the 
strange  analogies  which  exist  between  sound  and  colour. 

Buried  in  a  fauteuil,  with  her  arms  resting  on  a  table, 
sat  Madame  Sand,  curiously  attentive,  gracefully  subdued. 
She  is  listening  to  the  language  of  the  emotions — fascinated 
by  the  subtle  gradations  of  thought  and  feelings  which  she 
herself  delighted  to  express.  It  is  in  memory  of  sonie  such 
golden  hours  that  she  %vrites :— "There  is  no  mightier  art 
than  this  to  awaken  in  man  the  subhme  consciousness  of 
his  own  htmaanity — to  paint  before  his  mind's  eye  the  rich 
splendours  of  nature — the  joy  of  meditation — the  national 
character  of  a  people — the  passionate  tumult  of  their  hopes 
and  fears — the  languor  and  despondency  of  their  sufferings. 
Eemorse,  violence,  terror,  control,  despair,  enthusiasm, 
faith,  disquietude,  glory,  calm — these  and  a  thousand  other 
nameless  emotions  belong  to  music.  Without  stooping  to 
a  puerUe  imitation  of  noises  and  effects,  she  transports  us 
in  the  spirit  to  strange  and  distant  scenes.  There  we 
wander  to  and  fro  in  the  dim  air,  and,  like  j^neas  in  the 
Elysian  fields,  all  we  behold  is  greater  than  on  earth — god- 
like, changed,  idealised." 

One  evening  towards  sunset,  Chopin,  who  had  lain  in- 
sensible for  many  hours,  suddenly  rallied.    He  observed

THE  MUSICAL  TREASURY. 


the  Countess  draped  in  white  standing  at  the  foot  of  the 
bed.  She  was  weeping  bitterly.  "  Sing  !  "  murmured  the 
dying  man.  She  had  a  lovely  voice.  It  was  a  strange 
request,  but  so  earnest  a  one  that  his  friends  wheeled  the 
piano  from  the  adjoining  parlour  to  his  bedroom  door,  and 
there,  as  the  twilight  deepened,  with  the  last  rays  of  the 
setting  sun  streaming  into  the  room,  the  Countess  sang 
that  famous  canticle  to  the  Virgin,  which  it  is  said  once 
Baved  the  hfe  of  Stradella.  "How  beautiful  it  is!"  he 
exclaimed ;  "  My  God,  how  beautiful !  Again,  again  ! "  In 
another  moment  he  SAvooned  away.—//.  B.  Haweis. 


MECHANICAL  STREET  MUSIC. 
It  is  commonly  believed  that  street-organs,  hurdy-gurdies, 
and  kindred  instruments  are  looked  upon  with  particular 
dislike  by  all  orthodox  musicians.  It  appears,  however, 
that  the  common  belief  is  an  inaccurate  one.  In  1861  the 
celebrated  advocate,  Adolphe  Cr^mieux,  was  engaged  to 
plead  the  cause  of  certain  organ-grinders  who  were  indicted 
in  Paris  as  public  nuisances ;  and,  in  order  to  obtain  mate- 
rials for  the  defence,  he  appUed  to  three  of  the  leading 
composers  of  the  day  for  their  opinions  about  street-organs 
and  hurdy-gurdies.  Two  of  the  replies  have  recently  been 
discovered  among  a  large  collection  of  autographs  that  was 
left  by  the  great  lawyer,  and  the  letters  are  printed  in 
the  current  number  of  the  Bevuc  Politique  ct  Litleraire. 
J.  F.  Halevy  wrote  :  — "  I  do  not  believe  that  any  composer 
mil  admit  that  his  reputation  suffers  when  a  few  of  his 
melodies  are  reproduced  on  the  street-organs  and  other 
musical  boxes  to  which  you  allude  ;  I  believe,  on  the  con- 
trary, that  airs  which  are  thus  made  public  not  only  do  not 
lessen  the  reputation  of  the  composer,  but  give  it  an 
additional  popularity  which  is  not  unwelcome.  Of  course, 
the  composer  likes  great  singers — celebrated  tenors  and 
illustrious  prima  donnas — yet  there  is  good  in  the  rox 
po2ndi,  and  he  is  far  from  despising  it."  Eossini  was  next 
appealed  to,  but  his  reply  is  not  given.  It  was  evidently 
much  to  the  same  effect  as  Halfevy's,  for  Auber,  who 
was  the  third  composer  to  whom  the  question  was  referred, 
wrote  : — "  I  entirely  agree  mth  Eossini  and  Halfevy,  and 
I  beg  to  add  my  testimony  to  theirs.  The  success  of  the 
street  is  not  the  least  flattering  of  all."  Not  one  of  these 
distinguished  musicians  went  so  far  as  to  declare  that  the 
strains  of  a  hand-organ  were  soothing  to  him,  or  that  he 
had  an  active  liking  for  the  lugubrious  outpourings  of  a 
hurdy-gurdy  ;  and  therefore  it  may  not  be  festhetically 
incumbent  upon  a  mere  every-day  lover  of  music  to  go 
into  raptures  whenever  Giovanni  Giovanelli  elects  to 
chum  out  discordant  fragments  of  opera  within  hearing. 
It  may  be  added  that  the  composers  of  the  advanced 
school,  writing  with  a  sublime  contempt  for,  or  neglect  of 
melody,  are  not  likely  to  suffer  from  "grinding,"  or  to 
gain  popularity  after  this  manner. 


APPOINTMENTS. 

Mr.  John  M'Laken,  leader  of  psalmody  in  St.  Bryce- 
dale  Free  Church,  has  been  appointed  teacher  of  music 
under  Kinghorn  School  Board. 

Mr.  William  G.  Dunsjiore  (late  of  Holyrood  F.  C), 
has  been  elected  precentor  of  CampbeltoAvn  U.  P.  Church. 
After  hearing  a  leet,  which  were  chosen  out  of  the  twenty- 
eight  applications  sent  in,  the  precentor's  Committee  gave 
in  their  report  at  a  meeting  held  for  that  purpose.  Bx- 
Provost  Greenlees  moved,  and  Mr.  A.  Colville  seconded, 
that  Mr.  W.  G.  Dunsmore,  of  Edinburgh,  be  elected  pre- 
centor.   The  motion  was  put  and  carried  imanimously. 


A  Hint  tor  Pianists. — A  foreign  medical  man  counsels 
those  who  practise  frequently  on  the  piano,  harp,  and 
stringed  instruments  generally,  to  submit  to  a  surgical 
operation,  which  consists  in  dividing  the  tendon  of  the 
annulary  or  ring-finger.  Pianists  are  aware  that,  out  of 
the  five  fingers  composing  the  hand,  the  fourth  one,  as  it 
is  termed,  is  the  most  rebellious  in  action,  being  alike  the 
weakest  and  least  flexible  of  all  the  others.  I'his  feeble- 
ness proceeds  from  the  lateral  tendons  that  join  the  anntr- 
lary  to  the  other  fingers,  and  in  a  measure  paralyses  its 
movements.  It  seems  that  the  operation  is  not  painful, 
the  patient  loses  but  little  blood,  and  the  fingers  become  as 
free  as  the  others,  and  can  work  upon  the  key-board  or 
music-strings  with  equal  force  and  facility. 


Negro  Festivities. — Negro  festivities,  as  represented 
on  the  stage,  are  cheerful  and  jovial  proceedings,  replete 
with  fun  and  good  temper;  but  in  sober  reaUty  they  are 
not  unfrequently  scenes  of  disputes  and  bloodshed.  The 
negroes  carry  knives  and  razors,  and  use  them  on  the 
slightest  j)rovocation,  and  "desperate  frays  at  negro 
gatherings"  is  a  stock  heading  in  American  journals.  It 
is  not  often,  however,  that  the  cause  of  dispute  is  as  slight 
as  that  which  set  the  "sons  and  daughters  of  Moab"  by 
the  ears  at  a  picnic  near  Richmond,  Virginia.  The  trouble 
had  its  origin  in  a  misunderstanding  about  which  tune 
the  brass  band  should  play.  Anthony  and  some  of  his 
friends  insisted  it  should  be  "Wait  till  the  clouds  roll 
by."  Another  faction  demanded  a  livelier  air,  called 
"Dancing  Jimmy."  The  two  factious  became  greatly 
excited,  and  in  the  melee  a  dozen  razors  were  flashed 
in  the  sunhght.  A  coloured  constable  on  the  ground 
arrested  the  fighters.  Anthony  attempted  to  rescue  his 
friends  from  the  officers.  The  constable,  after  repeated 
warnings,  drew  an  old,  rusty,  pepperbox  revolver,  and 
shot  him.  Several  other  men  were  severely  wounded  in 
the  fray.  The  negro  has  always  been  fond  of  music,  but 
it  would  hardly  have  been  thought  that  whether  "Wait 
tin  the  clouds  roU  by"  or  "  Dancing  .Timmy  "  should  be 
played  first  was  a  question  of  sufficient  importance  to 
cause  a  score  of  sober  enthusiasts  to  go  at  each  other's 
throats  with  deadly  weapons. 

General  Grant  and  Mdsic— Amongst  other  reminis- 
cences of  the  late  General  Grant  is  one  concerning  his 
singularly  intense  dislilie  for  music.  Many  persons  do 
not  care  for  music;  others  only  like  certain  kinds  of  music; 
but  General  Grant  positively  detested  it  in  any  and  every 
foi'm.  The  narrator  who  recalls  this  curious  trait  in  his 
character  remarks  that,  when  Marshal  MacMahon  was 
President  of  the  French  Republic,  he  had  frequently  an 
opportunity  of  seeing  the  patient  endurance  of  the  Ameri- 
can hero  put  to  a  severe  test.  Being  on  a  visit  to  the 
French  capital,  the  Marshal  used  often  to^  place  the 
Presidential  box  at  the  Grand  Opera  at  his  disposal,  and 
etiquette  prevented  him  from  dechning  the  proffered 
courtesy.  He  could  not  stay  away,  but  what  he  endured, 
we  are  told,  in  the  cause  of  politeness  on  such  occasions 
can  best  be  understood  by  those  who  knew  him  intimately. 
He  would  sit  passively  enduring  what  to  him  was  real 
suffering  throughout  an  opera ;  not  a  muscle  of  his  face 
would  change  or  betray  him ;  but  afterwards  he  would 
confess  to  a  friend  the  reality  of  the  sufferings  he  had 
undergone.  His  dislilce  for  music  also  caused  him  real 
inconvenience  when  in  society.  Those  who  knew  of  it 
took  care  that  if  the  General  was  at  a  "soiree"  there 
should  be  neither  singing  nor  piano-playing;  but  in  many

instances  his  host  and  hostess  were  unacquainted  with  this 
peculiarity,  and  amateur  vocalists  and  pianists  would 
insist  on  performing  for  his  benefit.  His  answer  to 
"What  shall  I  sing,  or  what  shall  I  play  to  you,  General'/" 
in  such  oases  was  the  discouraging  one,  "  Something 
short."

by  Newton.  Composed  by  W.  P.  Gale,  Price  2s. 
Although  sacred  songs  are  not  in  great  demand  in  the 
musical  market,  a  composition  of  this  class,  mth  any 
claim  to  merit,  rarely  fails  to  secure  a  fair  measure  of 
success.  My  Harp  is  upon  the  Wilioiv,  the  composer  of 
which  is  known  in  Edinburgh  as  a  clever  organist  and 
choirmaster,  is  distinguished  by  a  melody  and  harmony 
that  are  at  once  simple  and  effective.  Mr.  Gale  has  been 
especially  happy  in  the  selection  of  his  words,  and  displays 
excellent  taste  and  unmistakable  ability  in  their  treatment.

perton  with  a  handsome  epergne,  as  a  token  of  the  high 
esteem  in  which  he  was  held  by  them,  and  as  a  mark  of  their 
appreciation  of  his  services  in  the  capacity  of  organist  and 
choirmaster  of  Woodside  Church.  Mr.  Wilson,  in  a  few 
words,  made  the  presentation,  Mr.  Clapperton  replied  in 
suitable  terms,  and  thereafter  a  pleasant  and  harmonious 
evening  was  spent.  Mr.  Clapperton  (who  was  recently  ap- 
pointed organist  of  Sandyf  ord  Church)  has  also  been  elected 
to  Belmont  Established  Church,  the  duties  of  which  he  will 
carry  on  in  addition  to  those  of  Sandyford. 

The  (jlasgow  St.  Andrew's  i\iusical  Assooiatiou, 
under  its  clever  conductor,  Mr.  D.  S.  AUan,  will  shortly  be 
in  full  swing,  and  is  even  now  engaged  in  weekly  rehearsals. 
During  the  coming  season,  this  Society  will,  judging  from 
its  scheme,  not  only  sustain,  but  add  to,  the  high  reputa- 
tion won  in  past  years.  Strong  in  membership,  with  many 
first  class  voices,  and  led  by  the  beat  of  so  aisle  a  con- 
ductor as  Mr.  Allan,  much  good  work  may  be  anticipated. 

After  the  presentation  in  Dublin  to  Madame  Marie 
Rose  of  a  gold  bracelet  by  Major  Macfarlane  and  twenty- 
three  ladies  and  gentlemen  of  the  Irish  capital,  the  crowd 
outside  wished  to  draw  the  p  rima  donna's  carriage  to  the 
hotel,  and  in  the  struggle  somebody  purloined  a  silver 
cigarette  case  out  of  Colonel  Henry  Mapleson's  side 
pocket.  There  is  something  like  a  isrecedent  for  this, 
as  it  seems  when  the  Dublin  crowd  wished  to  drag  the 
late  Mdlle.  Titiens  home  in  triumph,  the  horses  were 
never  returned,  and  Lieut. -Colonel  J.  H.  Mapleson  and 
Titiens  had  subsequently  to  arrange  the  matter  with  the 
prosaic  livery  stable-keeper.

The  following  is  the  explanation  of  a  few  points  wherein  some  of 
the  test-papers  were  wrong:  — 

In  the  first  line  of  the  test  this  passage  occurs:— 
re  I  n  .,ti  :  d  .,sei  1 1| 
Divested  of  what  we  may  consider  its  embellishments,  the  passage 
would  stand  plainly  thus:  |  Pl  :d  I  1|<  the-e  being  the  three 
notes  of  the  minor  chord.  Each  of  ihe  notes  is  approached  in  the  test 
byasemiione  Irom  below.  The  notes  of  approach  being  ^uar/er- 
pulse  tunes,  may  be  considered  as  non-essential;  they  are,  in  fact, 
incidental  guiding  notes,  or  meloiic  leading  notes,  directing  the  ear 
to  the  three  principal  notes  already  mentioned,  n  .d  .1|-  In  the 
major,  the  parallel  passage  to  R  .  d  .  1|  is  s  .  PI  .  d ;  and  if  we 
oraament  this  laiter  passage  similar  to  the  minor  passage  in  the 
test,  the  result  should  be  what  we  have  given  in  the  above  solution  at 
a.  There  is  another  point.  The  ta's  given  in  our  solution  were,  in 
most  of  the  papers,  set  down  as  t's;  this  is  wrong.  The  test  is 
written  in  the  "improper  method."  Had  it  been  put  in  the 
"better  method,"  the  key  would  have  been  changed  at  the  last 

note  of  the  second  line,  thus:  '  imf  ^^  ;  because  if  twenty 
notes  are  taken  in  succession,  beginning  at  this  point,  they  will  be 
found  to  be  the  very  same  in  effect,  and  in  relation,  as  the  first 
twenty  notes  olthQtest;  showing  thar  the  first  passage  of  twenty 
notes  is  repeated  further  on  in  another  key.  If  the  test  were 
written  in  the  "better  method,"  the  fourth  last  measure,  for 
example,  would  appear  thus:  lPl.d,r:Pl,f.riPl,  and  the 
major  parallel  would  be  this:  |  s  .PI  ',f  :s  ,1  .f  t  s;  in  the  im- 
proper method  the  above  extiact  appears  in  the  test  thus: 
|1  .f  ,s  :1  ,td  .s|  1,  and  its  mfl^or  parallel  should  appear  in  the 
solution  as  we  have  given  it. 

Several  of  the  candidates  mentioned  that  they  did  not  know 
exactly  how  to  work  the  6  requirement,  being  puzzled  as  to  how 
to  make  the  necessary  changes  of  key  without  using  accidentals. 
Seeing  that  it  was  only  the  melody  of  the  psalm-tune  tnat  was  to  be 
written,  it  need  only  be  explained  that  th  ■  key  may  change  with- 
out any  of  the  distinguishing  tones  appearing  in  the  melody.  In  the 
solution  of  this  r6q,uir6ment,  aa  given  above,  none  of  the  distin- 


guishing tones  appear  in  the  melody,  but  they  are  nevertheless 
implied,  and  would,  of  course,  be  introduced,  if  the  melody  were 
harmonised,  in  some  of  the  parts.  J.  C.  G-.

Lesson  XIII. 

Chap.  S.,pag6  7fi.   Study  pars.  llG-118,  with  intervening  examples. 

jYofe.— In  par.  IIG  we  are  told  that  the  suspension  4  to  3  is  rarely 
fouud  on  the  sub-dominant  and  leading  note.  It  is  much  more 
frequently  employed  on  the  sub-dominant  than  on  the  leading  note. 
Stainer  says  the  reason  it  is  rarely  used  on  the  sub-dominant  is 
because  the  fourth  from  the  sub-dominant  is  an  augmented  fourth; 
this,  in  my  opinion,  is  no  valid  objection^  as  the  fourth,  being 
augmented,  imd  also  by  reason  of  its  incisive  character  as  the 
leading  note,  only  renders  the  discord  more  piquant.  The  per- 
cussion and  the  resolution  of  the  suspended  fourth  on  the  sub- 
dominant  produce  a  strong  and  effective  contrast  of  pungency  and 
sweetness  which  cannot  be  so  effectively  and  so  simply  obtained 
by  any  other  means.  Here  is  a  common  instance  of  the  suspended 
fourth  on  the  sub-dominant:— 


CI  B  B  A 

E  G  F  

C|  E  F  

The  suspended  fourth  on  the  leading  note  has  less  to  recommend 
it,  as  the  resolution  must  be  effected  on  the  chord  of  the  leading 
note,  which  is  not  a  completely  consonant  chord.  The  contrast 
between  the  percussion  and  the  resolution  of  the  suspended  fourth  on 
the  leading  note  is  not  so  great  as  in  the  previous  exani]>le,  neither 
is  the  result  so  satisfactory  as  in  most  other  suspensions;  never- 
theless, it  might  be  employed  thus:— 


G 
O 
C 


El

DI 


The  pupil  is  not  advised  to  employ  this,  unless  it  be  in  a  sequence. 

Exercise. — Instead  of  doing  the  exercise  given  after  par.  IIS,  write 
4  to  3  suspensions  on  eveiy  note  of  the  scale,  in  the  key  of  D. 

Study  par.  119. 

Note.—T\xQ  student  may  here  be  a  littlo  perplexed.  In  par. 
116  he  is  told  that  the  4  to  3  suspension  is  found  on  every 
degree  of  the  scale,  and  in  this  par.  he  is  told  that  when  it 
occurs  on  the  5th  degree  of  the  scale  it  is  not  a  suspension.  This 
is  a  trifie  paradoxical.  Clearly,  if  the  4  to  3  on  the  dominant  is 
prepared,  it  is  a  suspension  ;  because,  having  a  proper  preparation, 
percnssioti,  and  resolution,  it  follows  the  common  rule  of  all 
suspensions.  When  the  4  to  3  on  the  dominant  has  no  preparation, 
then  it  may  be  considered  as  an  individual  chord  of  the  dominant 
eleventh.  The  dominant  eleventh  is  the  dommant  ninth  with 
another  third  superposed.  With  its  full  complement  of  notes  it 
appears  thus:— U— B— D— -F— A— 0.  In  four-part  harmony  it 
usually  appears  thus: — G — D — G — C,  having  its  root  doubled;  or 
thus:— G— D — F— C,  having  its  seventh  introduced:  in  both  ways 
we  find  the  chord  employed  in  Ex.  112,  but  there  the  discord  C 
(that  is  the  4th),  being  prepared,  it  must  be  considered  as  a  properly 
treated  suspension. 

Study  pars.  liiO,  121,  with  intervening  examples. 

i\'o(e.— From  the  former  of  these  pars,  it  will  easily  be  discerned 
that  when  the  note  of  discord  moves  up  to  its  resolution  it  is  called 
ii  ritardation ;  this  is  in  conti-actistinction  to  ^«57>e«5zon,  which  the 
device  is  called  when  the  dissonant  note  moves  down.

A  Loving  Shepherd  is  my  Lord, 

My  way  of  life  he  guideth ; 
No  care  have  I,  for  in  His  word. 

My  happy  heart  coufideth. 
In  pastures  green  He  feedeth  me. 

My  noonday  walks  attending : 
By  pleasing  streams  he  leadeth  me. 

My  midnight  hours  defending.
