3 1 L L 1 V () C () C College of Music Never has tlie music department been more flourishing in numbers and results. i altlio we hope, of course, for still better things next year. One of the chief jjrivileges ■ of the Faculty is to be never satisfied! ' j Be that as it may, we should like to point out that since our Faculty recitals were so many and varied this year, we had to introduce joint programs ' in order |j to fit them all in, and every one seemed to like the innovation. Certain it is that the audiences were most gratifyingly big and enthusiastic, and indeed every program p was well worth liearing. I The children ' s work lias been splendid; tlieir many recitals ha e ain])ly proved [ just what patience antl good training will produce from the average small person. i Their department arrannei! a concert for Miss Alma Melius and Miss Margarethe | | .Morris, the first of a Young Artists ' Series which will be continued next season. ; The bi-monthly Thursday afternoon recitals liave been a source of great pride 1} to Director Pearson and his staff, and sufficient first class numbers were selected | j from these informal programs to make up four advanced e ' ening concerts. ], 1922 was a red letter year for the violiji department. Estelle Co er being the 1 first student to graduate in violin with a B. M. degree, ! j! From the big world of professional artists the College brought to Jacksonville ij Dumesnil, French piajiist ; Frances Ingram, contralto; Zoellner Quartette, Ime. il]! de Vere Sapio, soprano, and T. Tertiiis Noble, noted organist. || The college orchestra, the Madrigal and Glee Clubs gave concerts of (nuisual i interest, the Glee Club giving several programs out of town. jl Truly, this year has seen many changes; old teachers have gone, new teachers j! have come, but through it all we have kept the high ideals of the college, remembering , that ars scvera, magnum fjaitfiiii in.
