Music in Europe and America
It is remarkable how often we
'err in looking for good things in
distant lands, while we have' them
right at our own door step.
It is also remarkable how many
young and ambitious Americans
flock to the old country to study mu
sic, not knowing the opportunities of
their native land, nor the disadvan
tages of the foreign.
While there might be quite a few
peoplo right here in Oregon City
that dream of a study trip to Europe,
we, from statistics, will give them a
few statements for information's
sake.
First, Europe, with four times the
population, has only little over half
as many instruments in use.
Second, Russia, one of the lead
ing musical countries with its 160
million inhabitants, has not enough
musical works to keep the musicians
of Pacific Coast in bread and butter.
Third, there is no royal opera
house that can come up to the Metro
politan in New York, and there have
been very numerous productions
made in America that are still be
yond reach for Europe.
The number of years concerts, re
citals and musical plays, performed
in America, is equal to any two in
Europe.
After all, knowing the two conti
nents, no one can deny that Ameri
ca is a far more musical country
than the melancholy old Europe.
