Corum, on North Front street. All members are asked to be present. So you don't like "modern" music, eh? IT does sound pretty terrible sometimes this "modern" music. Yet the it must be some thing to it so many people do like it. Perhaps your eyes and your cars would be opened were you to listen to the Eng lish Horn. This instrument is not Eng lish but French, not a horn but a wood-wind the alto oboe. It is always slightly out of tune with itself something charac teristic, too, of "modern" music. The degree of harmony be tween pitch and overtone vibra tions every sound has both gives each instrument its indi vidual quality or color. In the English Horn, pitch and over tone vibrations don't hit it off. They don't quite match up. This inherent dissonance in every note of the English Horn makes you sense remotely that something is wrong. So com posers use it when skeletons dance, when the gods sorrow, when doom is gathering. At first the ear fights all such dissonances. But the English Horn grows on j-ou. You come to like the same colorful un balance of :one spread through the whole orchestra. And there you are, liking "modern" music " By such unpretending but "inside" information about mu sic, the Standard School Broad cast each week during the school year helps 350,000 children ind countless grown-ups make all fine music friend for life.
