MUSIC AND MIND
Sir-In contradiction of C.M.L., vermit me as one of Voltaire’s fools touphold a little the progression of the | modern mind even in the field of music. Admittedly the outcome of the last world war was an accelerated development of jazz, and subsequently, swing music by radio and screen. This instilled appreciation in those who previcus', did not receive an education in the great masters Irving Berlin has given u- compositions conceived by the modern mind which are a contribution to culture and beautiful music, Players require years of ardent practice before attaining positions in first-grade orchestras, so C.M.L. must net be unduly influenced by many these would-be exponents of the art. On the other hand, I have heard con: siderable misinterpretations of the classics.
