Dean Skilton in Chapel.
Professor C. S. Skilton spoke in chapel this morning on "Music as history." As usually written history is a record of political events and the movements of men and nations without giving an adequate expression of the inner life of mankind. This lack is supplied by music which is thus important to supplement ordinary history. Dean Skilton mentioned the influence of song upon the French Revolution and cited Beethoven's symphonies as a good expression of the views of the Germans towards the French Revolution. One of the most complete historical interpretations of a country was made of Poland by Chopin. The different compositions of this composer presented various phases of the life of his people. Dean Skilton concluded his address by having Miss Charlotte Anderson, a senior in the school of Fine Arts, play "The Revolutionary Etude" written by Chopin in Paris when he heard of an effort for liberty in Poland.
