Chamber music is |a form of art that does not make much noise, but is nevertheless well worth while. By chamber music is meant music composed for a small group of instrumentn, whether they be two, three, four, five or more instru- ments: each instrument having a spe cial part written for it, not as in an { orchestra, when twenty or thirty violins play the same notes. For this reason chamber music is much harder to per- form well and requires very fine players and the quality of each instrument itself JMme. Georgette Leblanc, who will give a recital at the King-Smith stu- dios tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 p.n has expressed some extremely origi- nal ideas in regard to the compara- tive value of the work of old and modern music composers. She says in speaking of the modernists: “A great surprise awaited me, and also a great pleasure. The most com- plex of the young musiclans, the most interesting, those who declare that they have ‘finished with everything,’ even they proclaim their adoration for Gounod, Bizet and Schubert! They rediscover there something so simple, so clear and so eternal. “A young master, Roland Manuel, who writes the most advanced criti- cism of the day, suddenly told me in speaking of my repertoire: “*I hope that you, too, have come back to the ‘Serenade’ of Shubert— that immortal work of art! “‘ But no!" I replied, ‘I have never lett it “:And Gounod, madame? #Ah, Gounod! In my babyhood my mother used to sing me to sleep with the melodies of Gounod. Later I sang them myself, and I sing them still. As to Bizet, I do not think that more beautiful music could be written than certain passages of “L'Arleslenne. “And as my young friend appeared astonished, I explained myself. “In the first place, I have never been a slavish follower of the mode in anything.
