CHAMBER MUSIC

The reading and following of a m1nlature score, particularly embracing

Chamber Music, is by no means so difficult, and does not demand such technical knowledge as many people are wont to imagine,

and once the experiment has been tried it is surprising how fascinating the stud y becomes-the composition at once has a new meaning and a bigger interest to the listener who is keen enough to try.

For example-let a string quartet record be played a little slower than indi-

cated, and then follow in the score the instrument most easilv detected-

)

to the majority the Violoncello can be heard best by virtue of its tone, especially when played in the lower reg isters. At subsequent hearings the other instruments can be traced out clearly as the ear be-

comes more acquainted with the composition under review, until finally after some practice it will be found that a fair idea of any straight-

forward and diatonic \vork can be g rasped by reading the score alone.
