Musie Week
In observance of National Mu
sic Week, May 6-12, the Medford
Public Library has arranged a
display of books and music.
Typical are the books for the
general reader who wants to
learn more about music. "Our
Musical Heritage," by Curt Sachs
is a short history of music, the
purpose of which is to give an
idea of the essential trends of
thought and style. The author
discusses music chronologically
against a background of social
and aesthetic influences.
David Ewen's "Home 3ook of
Musical Knowledge," covers a
lot of ground and anyone inter
ested in musc will find this type
of book indispensable. His "The
Complete Book of 20th Century
Music," is a biographical interp
retive, and critical guide to the
music of our era.
For Opera Lovers
Among the books for opera
lovers "Th Opera Reader,"
edited by Louis Biancolli, tells
the stories of the chief operas in
sprightly fashion. Others are
"The Metropolitan Opera Guide"
and "Stories of the Great
Operas" by Ernest Newman.
A recent addition is "Tosca-
nini," by Samuel Chotzinoff. The
great Italian conductor is seen at
work and at play both here and
in Europe in all his fierce con
centration on music. T. R. Ybap-
ra's "Caruso," is a lively, warm
account of the most acclaimed
opera singer in history. There is
also material .available on the
lives of other outstanding musi
cal figures.
About Hi-Fi

of music there are two new
books on High Fidelity. Donald
