Clubs began to spring up in connection with all industrial establishments and offices, as a place for recreation and amusement for the workers, and for gaining knowledge in the arts and sciences, The first years of the post-October period were marked by the ‘mass character of the club establishments, both in regard to the numbers of club nuclei as well as the number of people who took part in the various forms of clubs activ- ity. Prior to 1925 there had existed about 8,000 clubs combining over 6,- 000 musical and choral circles; in 1925 there were already nearly 3,500 clubs combining over 6,000 musical and choral circles, out of a general number of 25,000 club circles, To this should be added about 2,000 mu- sical and choral circles existing in connection with the Red Corners (small clubs). Until 1925 the num- ber of people taking part in the musi- cal cireles had reached about 14,000; in 1926 the number increased to 16,- 000, out of a total number of 700,000 members of the clubs, Spontaneous- ly, with insufficient organization, there grew up the musical associa- tions, orchestras and choirs in the clubs.

A body of musie instructors and choir leaders was trained, and the first efforts were made to form mu- sical organizations as one of the var- ieties of cultural and educational ac- tivity. The foremost musicians and composers, those of them who were in organic sympathy with the Revolu- tion, rallied to the Proletcult studios. A program of musical education was drawn up, comprising the teaching of musical notation and other subjects ‘to the members of the musical circles. The Proleteult activities have served the historical purpose of placing the musical activities of the clubs upon a solid foundation. Year by year the quality of the musical work in the clubs increase both ideologically and artistically. Since 1925 there has been going on a process of fusion of the small circles into large associations. There were also organized district orchestras and choirs, the Clothing Workers’ Central Choir, the Communal Workers, the Food Workers, the Metal Workers and the Printers, the Textile Work- ers, ete. There was also united the folk music orchestra of the metal workers and the clothing workers, and the brass bands of the textile workers, communal workers and metal workers. Contests were also organized among the different circles which served only to stimulate their growth. The principle of affording professional instruction without de- taching the worker from his habitual occupation has proven productive of highly beneficial results, The musical and choral circles of the workers’ clubs no longer content themselves with simple songs and the like. Many of the workers’ clubs are already producing regular opera with their own musical and choral forces. Concerts in Factories.

Another organization delivering concerts under the plan mapped out by the Lecture Bureau of the Mos- cow Council of Trade Unions is the orchestra conducted by Prof. Sadov- nikov, Finally, the musical schools and technicums organize regular per- formances by the pupils in the work- ers’ clubs and in Red Army clubs under a system of cultural patron- Efforts were made to dis- Yearly each club be- came transformed into a miniature| musical school, and the district and! ;age.
