What, to me, seem its shortcomings are signs of a danger and a temptation to which we are all liable. In these halcyon days of making education attractive with appealing books, radio dramatizations, films, slides and what not, we are bidding high for the child's attention, perhaps too high. For attention, momentary interest, is a poor thing compared with the creative interest that grows and lasts. Now, more than ever, we who work with and for children should protect them from the over-stimulation of them, he examines the chordal usages of too much entertainment and, as educators, be jealously on guard over the integrity of our subjects. -LILLIAN BALDWIN Testing has again produced a scholarly and practical work in this, his most recent book.* It is not a book which will be of interest to the larger number of school music teachers but will prove valuable to those with an interest in the entire This work is testing movement. written primarily for psychologists and others engaged in psychological testing as well as students of testing. The material presented “covers both the basic theories of mental measurement and their practical application.” “It lists approximately one hundred of the typical and sounder tests available today, including those made by the Army during the war.” The chapter on Aptitude Testing should be of interest to music educators. The section of this chapter on Talent Tests includes a description of (1) Measures of Musical Talent, Seashore, and (2) Musical Memory Test, Drake. The author does not clearly indicate whether or not he selected these purely as types of talent tests or because he believes these tests to be particularly sound. Dr. Mursell states that his purpose was “to present a comprehensive and balanced account of the testing movement in psychology, its present status and its future prospects.” He has achieved his purpose and made a distinct contribution to educational R.

His imagination brings the original theme In doing this he to a full flowering. scorned the criticism of his contemporaries, refusing to be shackled by the principles of tonality. He chose to progress to his key by his own path, arriving “with an ‘eclat more brilliant for being delayed.”’ (If you would be dull, tell all.-French proverb.) Mendelssohn, Brahms, Franck, Debussy and many others have been influenced by Beethoven's power to create a,tmosphere in these quartets. For example, Berlioz observes that the Scherzo of Op. 18, No. 3 is “as fascinating as the gaze of a mesmerizer.” Beethoven, himself, says of the adagio, Op. 18, No. 1, “I thought of the burial vault in Romeo and Juliet.” To create these effects within the confines of the string quartet is a truly wonderful accomplishment. By contrast, Beethoven, as well as Mozart, could be roguish or could create a figuration of notes that is like “a flight of birds or a bunch of flowers.” The book concludes with the poignant story of the composer's last days. Beethoven said that art alone deterred him from putting an end to his life. He was cruelly forced to “a synthesis of assertion and submission,” but still he could proclaim, “I am never alone when I am alone. I have no fear for my Who understand it must be music-those freed from the miseries others drag about with them.” We are grateful to the author for sharing with us a large measure of his understanding. -DAVID MATTERN The Child's First Music RIMERHYTHMAND SONG Delightful first music for the child with his own interests and living experiences as the subject matter. Ideas, vocabulary, and textual phrases are from the land of little folk. Range is right, Accompaniments create moods. Catchy songs sharpen the child's listening and stimulate his musical interest. Singing games encourage group participation. Rhythmic activity develops coordination and feeling of pulse. Sentence songs and imitative lines help “out-of-tune” singers. Complete instructions for singing games as well as suggestions for group activity are provided. 76 songs in sheet music size. Illustrated.

His imagination brings the original theme In doing this he to a full flowering. scorned the criticism of his contemporaries, refusing to be shackled by the principles of tonality. He chose to progress to his key by his own path, arriving “with an ‘eclat more brilliant for being delayed.”’ (If you would be dull, tell all.-French proverb.) Mendelssohn, Brahms, Franck, Debussy and many others have been influenced by Beethoven's power to create a,tmosphere in these quartets. For example, Berlioz observes that the Scherzo of Op. 18, No. 3 is “as fascinating as the gaze of a mesmerizer.” Beethoven, himself, says of the adagio, Op. 18, No. 1, “I thought of the burial vault in Romeo and Juliet.” To create these effects within the confines of the string quartet is a truly wonderful accomplishment. By contrast, Beethoven, as well as Mozart, could be roguish or could create a figuration of notes that is like “a flight of birds or a bunch of flowers.” The book concludes with the poignant story of the composer's last days. Beethoven said that art alone deterred him from putting an end to his life. He was cruelly forced to “a synthesis of assertion and submission,” but still he could proclaim, “I am never alone when I am alone. I have no fear for my Who understand it must be music-those freed from the miseries others drag about with them.” We are grateful to the author for sharing with us a large measure of his understanding. -DAVID MATTERN The Child's First Music RIMERHYTHMAND SONG Delightful first music for the child with his own interests and living experiences as the subject matter.
