The Ambrosian
MUSIC
MUSIC IS A big thing I
* * *
SAID AS I unlocked my roll
* * *
TOP DESK TOOK out my pet
* * *
MOUTH ORGAN and played the
* * *
STAR SPANGLED banner
* * *
TWICE WHILE I was sitting
* * *
DOWN AND for once I
* * *
BELIEVED MYSELF because
* * *
ALTHOUGH I like music and
* * *
ALL THAT and have
* * *
CONTRIBUTED generously to
* * *
THE SUPPLYING of Jew's
* * *
HARPS FOR the suffering
* * *
SAVAGES IN the frozen
* * *
EXPANSES OF Cuba personally
* * *
I DON'T KNOW a thing
* * *
ABOUT MUSIC AND as yet
can
* * *
ONLY PLAY the LISZT
* * *
RHAPSODIES and the Preludes
* * *
OF RACHMANNINOFF with
* * *
ANYTHING LIKE ease but
that
* * *
DOESN'T PROVE that I
don't
* * *
APPRECIATE MUSIC just
like
* * *
A BANKER doesn't have to
* * *
BE AN ARTIST to know
when
* * *
AN ACCOUNT is overdrawn
and
* * *
JUDGING FROM the number
of
* * *
TIMES I HAVE attended
Soup
* * *
RECITALS WHERE some of
the
BEST KNOWN musicians of
our
* * *
DAY HAVE competed including
* * *
ONE MONSIEUR West whose
* * *
TREATISE ON cat calls
screeches
* * *
AND SUCH musical noises as
* * *
REQUIRE "GUTS" to produce and
* * *
ESPECIALLY CAT-gut when
* * *
USED IN connection with the

VIOLIN HAS NO parallel in
the
* * *
ENGLISH LANGUAGE and
also
* * *
GILBERT WATERS who al-
tho' the
* * *
POSSESSOR OF A superb so
prano
* * *
VOICE WHENEVER he sings
prefers
* * *
A LOW KEY—if possible a
* * *
KEY TO SOMEBODY'S cel
lar and
* * *
AS I SAID judging from these
* * *
AFFAIRS WHICH show taste
if
* * *
INDEED NOT appetite to
* * *
WRITE THE following articles
* * *
WHICH ARE TO be entitled
* * *
"MUSIC AT ST. Ambrose"
or '' How

IGNORANCE WOULD have
been
* * *
BLISS." WITH these articles

perhaps

MOST POPULAR work
"Three Best

my
MANY COMPETITORS in the
* * *
FIELD TO BE absolutely
* * *
FREE FROM prejudice of any
* * *
SORT. THE entire three
* * *
ARTICLES WILL deal
* * *
EXCLUSIVELY with the
most
* * *
HIGHLY DEVELOPED and
* * *
CONCENTRATED forms of
* * *
EXQUISITE torture that
* * *
MAN HAS BEEN able to
* * *
CONCEIVE namely the
* * *
ORCHESTRA CHOIR and
Glee
* * *
CLUB NOT to mention the
* * *
ILL-FATED Music Club
whose
* * *
CAREER—SHORT sweet and
* * *
EVENTLESS IS a worthy
* * *
EXAMPLE FOR all other
* * *
AMBITIOUS music clubs to
* * *
FOLLOW AND now I wish to
* * *
STATE THAT if anyone after
* * *
READING THESE articles
feels

THE INSPIRATION to bigger
* * *
THINGS OR the incentive to

MORE VIGOROUS action

KILLING HIS wife and marrying
