preienii the nEumE FOR 1941 published by the Neume Board for the Senior Class of the New England Conservatory of Music Boston, Massachusetts CLEMENT LENOM Time but the Impression stronger makes As streams their channels deeper wear. . . . Burns To Clement Lenom, artist, teacher and friend, we, enriched by his wisdonn, encouragement and guidance, respectfully dedicate this year- book. — 4 — tL 1941 At the present time, with the world tormented by suspicion, fear, and hate, it is well to pause and reflect on the spiritual strength of music, our chosen profession. Music offers itself as an expression of love and beauty. Just as the glorious performances of nature exist in all countries (a colorful sunset is just as lovely in one country as in another], so is the appeal of music great in all lands. Whether he be a teacher, performer, or composer, the musician should approach his art with but one idea in mind, sincerity of heart. The small town music teacher who is responsible for a real under- standing and love of good music in his community is just as much of a success as the great performer whose musical attainments are world reknown. May your future be attended by the only real happiness there is: that of service to others, and may your music play an important role in realizing that ideal.

We think of that day usually as being the close of a phase of our growth into nnusicians; the day when we are bestowed, amid great dignity and cerennony, with acknowledgments of our com- pletion of certain requirements which are intended to insure our musical and intellec- tual development. But why, then, if that be a day of finality, the last day of our con- nection with the Conservatory as students, why is that day known as a commence- ment ? On the seventeenth of June, we do not end anything. Rather, we begin the most important part of our lives; we are graduated from apprenticeship to full-fledged membership in our profession. Had we only to fulfill the standards of the profession to our own satisfaction, we might face our future without concern; unfortunately, however, we find that whatever branch of the profession we choose, we must fulfill the standards to someone else ' s satisfaction in order to procure the essentials of living which we cannot ignore. And we must fulfill them better than a host of other musicians can, for, in our form of society, the rule in the musical profession as well as in any other, is the survival of the fittest. We may ask, What formula for success can we follow to guide us in our struggle for survival? There is no answer to this question, for success depends upon more than a formula, more than can be enumerated by one person in one paragraph. However, if we examine those who have already proved successful, ws will find one characteristic common to all. They have always kept themselves and their work to high standards, higher than they can ever expect to attain. The great teacher expects, and obtains, more from his pupil than anyone else; the great artist is never satisfied with his per- formances and always seeks to Improve them, to be satisfied only with perfection. They always strive for more than others do, and, although they never satisfy them- selves, they succeed in achieving more than the less ambitious; they thus become the fittest, and survive. Similarly, although each of us will pick out our individual road to success, we all must strive always to follow the road further and more faithfully than we expect possi- ble, lest we join the unfortunate many who must sit by the wayside and watch the progress of the ambitious. y dm in is tra L ion WALLACE GOODRICH Director QUINCY PORTER Dean of the Faculty GEORGE A.

Antlgonish, Nova Scotia — 28 — PRESS SERVICE FLASHES FOR FEBRUARY 29, 1961 Boston, Mass. — A sensational new book has been announced by the FRIBERS- FORTINI music publishing company. The author, Esor Accas (pen-name for ROSE SACCA BONGIOVANNI), has written a very valuable text on a subject which concerns every student at one time or another. Briefly, it tells just how a person can swing a full schedule at school, get home in time to have dinner ready for the husband, and raise a family. MISS SARAH LIBBEY is talcing orders at the N. E. C. Bookstore. Price, $3.50, less thirty per cent for cash. Moncton, New Brunswick — Recognition has finally come to MARY MURPHY for her patient and persevering work with low voices. With her able assistants, ELEANOR LONG and EVELYN RICHARDS, a School for Low Voices has been opened in Moncton. It has been rumored that they are planning to spread out all over Canada. Perhaps even the Eskimos will be affected. This school was made possible by the generous contributions of the people of New Brunswick. Worcester, Mass. — SUMNER PETERSON and SAMUEL BEATTIE, co-supervisors of music here, held a Battle of Music at the Worcester Auditorium last night. However, the high spot of the evening was when the former played a trumpet solo with the latter at the piano. It was an old favorite, Dark Town Strutters ' Ball, and it brought down the house. Boston, Mass. — Returning this season to their home town with the Metropolitan Opera Association were HENRY GRZYBALA as Radames and ANGELICA SARRIS as Amneris in Aida. Vigorous conducting and high enthusiasm marked LUTHER ONERHEIM ' S leadership. HARRIET KAPLAN, music critic for the SOUTH BOS- TON DAILY BULLETIN, revealed that forty-one soldiers were wearing wrist- watches, an anachronism not written into the opera. For this fine work in criticism, MISS KAPLAN has been awarded the Smith Prize for Constructive Criticism given annually by the BOSTON POST. Mooselookmeguntic, Maine — It was announced last night that LOUISE PICERELLI has been put in charge of the music department here. Her coming is welcomed by students and faculty alike. A band of saxette players accorded her an, exciting reception at the railroad station this afternoon. NANINE SCHWARZ, in charge of the band, has recently developed an E-flat baritone saxette which was used for the first time today with an unusually striking result. — 30 — Boston, Mass. — Engaged by the Women ' s Symphony Orchestra for Friday ' s concert are MARGARET CLARK and VERA BOSTROM, duo-pianists. They are introduc- ing to Boston ROBERT STEELE ' S new concerto for two pianos and brass ensemble. JEANNE STARCK will conduct and FRANCES EATON is concert-mistress of this well-known orchestra. Other concerts of interest are the monthly program given by the JUMP, Jump, and LaPlante Trio, and the annual recital given by NORMA OLSON at the Waltham Public Library. The ever-popular vocal team of JONES and CARDON will be heard next Sunday afternoon. MARY QUINN will officiate at the Baldwin. Of high interest to local concert-goers is the novel sextet consisting of two violins, two pianos, oboe, and percussion — Messrs. HAGO- PIAN. NICOLOFF, RIZZO, NOVAK, CREIGHTON, and MANCHESTER. Since little music had been written for this combination, one can usually depend upon hearing a concert of a very rare nature. Each one of these men has been con- certizing a great deal lately, but they have merged their talents in order to give Boston something new and exciting. A public recital at the N. E. C. by pupils of CLARA SHEDD and RUTH KRATMAN is also on the b ill for this week. Tickets may be obtained at DEAN STEADY ' S office or by writing to the Conservatory at 294-296 Huntington Avenue. Fort Devens, Mass. — MAJOR HARVEY LOVELESS has been promoted to a Cap- tain ' s rank. According to new Army regulations, all band-masters are to receive this rank. This ruling was adopted by Congress last December, largely through the efforts of Senator F. BURNS LANGWORTHY from New Hampshire. Brighton, Mass. — MARJORIE PRITZKER, formerly a well-known pianist in local society circles, has entered into a partnership in the Argenthomme Physics Lab- oratory. Miss Pritzker explains that even during her school days at the N. E. C, her heart was more in physics than in piano. A similar case was that of RUBY CARR, who has always been tremendously interested in commercial art. Boston, Mass. — Coming back to old stamping grounds at the New England Con- servatory of Music, your correspondent found a newly enlarged cafeteria. Prices were surprising. Three-course dinners for $.45, hot lunches for $125, and any kind of sandwich, $.05. Head chef is CONSTANCE BETTENCOURT, with VICTORIA EISENBERG assisting. New also is the automat which has been installed, thus enabling students to be served immediately. Certainly, a fine improvement. Dean of Women, ETHEL HILL, tells me that the Junior Prom this year is being held in the grand ballroom of the Hotel Statler. Some improvement over the informal dances in Recital Hall we used to know as Juniors way back in ' 40. NEARY AND OWEN, nationally known all-girl band, will furnish the music. Featured singer is EDITH McCANN, former voice teacher at the MACALUSO Conservatory of Music in Newton .... — 31 — Senior C ia5A 1941: Heretofore, we have proceeded In life with the constant advice of our elders; from now on, each of us must take over the reins and assume the responsibilities of thinking and formulating opinions in- dividually. Throughout the nation, senior classes of 1941 are going out into a world in which man, as human as he is, has returned to the primitive days of the Dark Ages. Who knows but what, a year hence, each of us may be in the service of our country, and, until then, let us harmonize our thoughts and deeds to the utmost, in collaboration with our leaders. Coopera- tion, regardless of race, creed, color or politics, is the essence of unity. Let us, as musicians, subdue opposition with music, and not with the sword. The future, as black as it may seem, must be brightened with complete confidence and hope in the youth of America. We must use our wisdom and energy during the great period of reconstruction that shall inevitably follow this horrible conflagration. Seniors of the class of ' 41: — let us forget the dissonances be- tween us and our neighbors in Europe and in the East, and extend a friendly hand to them. — 33 — The most Important organization of the Conservatory to students of orchestral Instruments Is the Conservatory Orchestra, of eighty pieces, under the direction of Wallace Goodrich, assisted by Quincy Porter. The orchestral training received by members of the orchestra has enabled many of them in past years to graduate to the Boston Symphony Orchestra; and Its semi- weekly rhearsals afford all students an opportunity to become familiar with the standard orchestra literature, as well as with the interesting modern and rarely heard early music which is Included In the concerts. The orchestra has also made It possible for students to rehearse concertos they are learning with orchestral accompaniment, an otherwise rare privilege. Concerts and radio broadcasts are given from time to time, and often Include soloists, who are members of either the faculty or the student body. — 34 — FIRST VIOLINS Ruth Moorehouse Peter Cerullo Jules Payment Dorothy Churchill Ellinor Benedict Adelaide Hubbard Frederic Nazro Rhoda Robinson nUKNb Mary Sawyer CONTRABASSES John Moyes Alfred Soule Stanley Hassell Richard Hall Frances Eaton LeRoy Friswold Vincent Jacobs Richard Hagopian Margaret Alvord Phyllis Sampson Vollmer Hetherington James Otis Marcia Junnp Lillian Arnold TRUMPETS Katherine Morrell James Harnett Harry Herforth Louis Ugalde Martin Boraks Eleftherlos Eleftherakis HARP Irving Sarin Ewald Krauklln Olivia Hall Edmund Norcross SECOND VIOLINS Mary Lenom TROMBONES Richard Johns FLUTES Kauko Kahila Andrew Kot Chellis Carville Marjorie Sheils Harriet Peacock Erwin Price Alton Avery Frances Snow Irma Moran Daniel Leary BASS TUBA Phyllis Smith Faust Fiore (also piccolo] Chester Roberts Mary Tenia n Joy Wingett OBOES TYUPAMI 1 I IVlr MNI Thelma Bernert Norman Cutler Rowena Robbins .lft Ann R I770 Lawrence White, Instructor Robert Hanes Arnold Manchester Isador Rashkovsky Walter Targ PERCUSSION VIOLAS ENGLISH HORN D in Paul Price Louis Ruggiero Victor Alpert Clement Lenom, Instructor CLARINETS ivierTon v £inbKy Harry Bartlett Arthur Freiwald Arnold Chaitman Orville Cramer PIANOFORTE Arthur d ' Onofrio Harvey Brigham Helen Duncan George Nicoloff Constance Bettencourt BASS CLARINET CELESTA George Fulginiti Dowell McNeill VIOLONCELLOS Dorothea Jump BASSOONS LIBRARIAN Norma Jean Olson Clyde Bennett Stanley Hassell — 35 — The Conservatory Chorus, totalling about a hundred mennbers, meets for rehearsals twice a week under the inspiring direction of Francis Findlay. The group includes all of the Public School Music students, most of the voice students, and a good many others who join because they enjoy choral singing. Each year Mr. Findlay prepares the Chorus for at least one public con- cert with the Conservatory Orchestra. This year the Chorus sang the Brahms Requiem, in Jordan Hall, to a greatly enthusiastic audience; through the medium of records, this concert may still be enjoyed. Also, the Chorus usually takes part in the Conservatory Night held annually at Pops. — 36 — Oraanlza Hon A iND[R im mi MM mm m [IGiflID COIS[RIHIORf C n m mm mm im PHI i RiPHIIIH mm m m PI yPPH IHiDH Student C oLincii ALFRED L SOULE President DANIEL LEARY Vice-President LEE RUDD Secretary BRONISLAW POLICHNOWSKI Treasurer Annos Bond Phi Mu Alpha, Sinfonia Richard Hagopian Senior Class Daniel Leary U nderclass Walter Nickerson Underclass Bronislaw Polichnowski Newman Club Marilyn Cloutier Sigma Alpha lota Robert Hanes Junior Class Eleanor Long Senior Class George Nicoloff Kappa Gamma Psi Lee Rudd Conservatory Club Austin Staples Carr Society J.

Alpha Chi Omega was founded by seven young women students in 1885 at DePauw University, Greencastle, Indiana; ten years later Zeta Chapter, the only strictly musical chapter of the sorority, was installed at the New England Conservatory. The organization has since grown to seventy-eight active chap- ters in universities and colleges throughout the country. Zeta chapter has given the sorority two national presidents — Evangeline Bridge Steven- son and Gladys Livingston Graff. They are also proud to claim among their prominent mem- bers Ruth Culbertson, winner of the Mason and Hamlin Prize, and Mrs. Edward MacDoweli. Activities of Zeta chapter include each year two concerts, a rummage sale, and musicales given at various homes for the blind, aged, and so forth. OFFICERS DAVID S.

The Carr Organ Society was founded at the Conservatory by a group of organ students in February, 1939; its name was suggested by Wallace Goodrich, who welcomed the organ- ization into the functions of the Conservatory and gave it permission to use the Carr Me- morial Room as the official Society room. The purpose of the Society is to give its members a chance to perform in public, to promote a friendly spirit among the organ stu- dents, and to give members a better knowledge of organ literature. Officers of the Society are elected for one semester term; elections are held in September and February. Three of its charter members are still active, all of the others are alumni mem- bers. — 43 — OFFICERS EVELYN RICHARDS, President; NANINE SCHWARZ, Vice-President; OLIVE STRICK- LAND, Treasurer; LOUISE PICERELLI, Secre- tary; LEE RUDD, Student Council Representa- tive.

The Conservatory Club was founded in 1920. Twice a year, in the spring and the fall, the Club invites new girls to become members. Excursions are made by members into the countryside in good weather and it is at times like these that the friendships formed by close association in the club room are appreciated the most. The Conservatory Club believes that music is closer to nature than any of the other arts, thus, a combination of both will make for richer experience in the chosen field. There are twenty active members this year. Skating and bowling were among their amuse- ments, and a concert was given in conjunction with the Carr Memorial Society. The final event of the school year was a banquet and formal dance for members and guests. t OFFICERS EDYTHE SALVIN BLOON, President; CHAR- LOTTE ROGERS, Vice-President; ROSALIE ZOLATTO, Recording Secretary; SYLVIA RUBIN, Corresponding Secretary; NORMA FRANK, Treasurer; RUTH KRATMAN, Publicity. OTHER ACTIVE MEMBERS Lillian Goldman, Sylvia Katz, Elizabeth Sher, Doris Zinman. The Louis C. Elson Club, named for one of the most distinguished of the Conservatory ' s former faculty members, was founded in 1920 to promote the best in music and to further the musical interests of its members. By 1924, the club had becom e sufficiently established to enable it to present to the Conservatory a memorial in the form of a bas-relief by the noted sculptor, Henry Hudson Kitson. In accordance with its aims, the Club pre- sents a concert each spring and awards a scholarship to one of its members. Several con- certs, parties, and musicales are held each year. Members of the Club usually join the Elson Alumni Club, for which they are eligible two years after graduation. — 45 — OFFICERS LOUIS USALDE, President; SUMNER PETER- SON, Vice-President; CLARENCE MOSHER, 2nd Vice-President; GEORGE NICOLOFF, Treasurer; ORVILLE CRAMER, Recording Sec- retary; ARTHUR FREIWALD, Corresponding Secretary; RICHARD JOHNS, Sergeant-at- Arms; SAMUEL BEATTIE, Historian; WILLIAM FULLER, JR., Chaplain.

Kappa Gamma Psi, of which the Conserva- tory boasts the Alpha Chapter, was founded here in December, 1913, by V illiam Bailey, Carl Bergman, Frederick Earle, Arthur Ecklund, Oscar Ecklund, Frank Lamoreaux, William Pon- tin, Colin Richmond, George Shaw, Dean Stewart, Harold Stewart, and Archibald Smith.
