MUSIC AND LIFE

A Study of the Relations, Between Ourselves and MusicDuring the last twenty or thirty years there has been an enormous increase in the United States of what may be called institutional music. We have built opera houses, we have formed many new orchestras, and we have es tablished the teaching of music in nearly all our public and private schools and colleges, so that a casual person observing all this, hearing from boastful lips how many millions per ian num we spend on music, and adding up the various columns into one grand total, might arrive at the conclusion that we are really a musical people.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
