출판사 서평

음악과 인생. The Book of Music and Life, by Thomas Whitney Surette

INTRODUCTION
During 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 established 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 annum 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.
But one who looks beneath the surface―who reflects that the thing we believe,
and the thing we love, that we do―would have to do a sum in subtraction also;
would have to ask what music there is in our own households. He would find that
in our cities and towns only an infinitesimal percentage of the inhabitants sing
together for the pleasure of doing so, and that the task of keeping choral
societies[ Pg xii] together is as difficult as ever; that the music we take no part in,
but merely listen to, is the music that flourishes; that our operatic singers, the
most highly paid in the world, come to us annually from abroad and sing to us in
languages that we cannot understand; that, in short, while music flourishes, much
of it is bought and little of it is home- made. The deduction is obvious. This
institutional music is a sort of largess of our prosperity. We are rich enough to
buy the best the world affords. We institute music in our public schools and
display our interest in it once a year―at graduation time. We see that our children
take “ music lessons” and judge the result likewise by their capacity to play us
occasionally a very nice little piece. Men, in particular,―all potential singers, and
very much needing to sing,―look upon it as a slightly effeminate or scarcely
natural and manly thing to do. Music is, in short, too much our diversion, and too
little our salvation.
