All the different branches of art receive their inspiration from the same root. What is -that root? I believe it is a passionately strong feeling for the poetry of life - for the beautiful, the mysterious, the romantic, the ecstatic- the loveliness of nature, the lovability of people, everything that excites us, everything that starts our imagination working, laughter, gaiety, pretending in the way that children do, strength, heroism, love, tenderness, every time we see - however dimly - the god-like that is in everyone - and want to kneel in reverence.

Dedication DR. JANI SZANTO President Emeritus When Jani Szanto became President-Director of the Philadelphia Musical Academy in 1942, he brought his vast experience and wealth of musical know- ledge with him from Europe. Under his foresighted administration the Academy achieved great prominence, receiving its accredication from the National As- sociation of Schools of Music. Born in Hungary, he received his musical education in Budapest and in Vienna, where he graduated. In Europe he had a rich career as concert violin- ist, chamber music player, and teacher, which culminated in a lifetime profes- sorship for violin master classes at the German State Academy of Music in Munich. The European press praised him as a matured, spirited artist; a born great artist , considered outside of Flesch perhaps the most style-perfect violinist of contemporary times. The Munich String Quartet, which he founded in 1919, was considered one of Europe ' s best. Since his retirement from the Presidency and Directorship of the Academy, he has devoted his time, as head of the string department, exclusively to teaching chamber music. He continues to be a source of inspiration andmusic- al joy to all who know him. His keen wit and understanding, together with undying interest and deep love of music, are qualities found during lessons, chamber music sessions, and conversation. And, so, to show in some small way our appreciation and thanks, and, also, to express our admiration and affection, we dedicate our yearbook to our beloved Dr. Jani Szanto.
