People Should Become Music Consumers, Lang
By JOHN RILEY
Professor Lang said we have a "pale picture" of the splendor of the music composed in past centuries. He referred to the music beard now as "the fifty pieces of music," and called records "mute music."
Professor Lang advocated chamber music as the most ideal medium to acquire feeling for fine music. He said the vogue for manmoth orchestra is about over because of the expense of maintaining them. He welcomes the trend because it means that more good but unfamiliar music will be presented.
People must be taught to be consumers of music, Paul H. Lang, professor of music at Columbia university, said at the third humanities lecture Thursday. He spoke on "Music in the Life of an Educated Man."
"Music educators should enlighten and guide the layman." Professor Lang said. "You cannot just go to a concert, sit down, and let the music hit you, and expect to get anything out of it."
He said that American music scholars are rapidly becoming the best in the world, but that methods of teaching music are antiquated. "We start teaching children with music 100 years old," said Professor Lang. "We cannot expect them to know or understand modern music."
"Very few people can escape the influence of music," said Professor Lang. Professor Lang believes that before a person can really appreciate music, he must have a balance between intellect and aesthetics.
Professor Lang gave a brief history of music as it developed from the church, the school, and the home. He said the church has always been the greatest patron of music. He said it is the duty of music departments in the schools to pay more attention to the "everyday citizen".
