AND THEIR WORK DURING 1937
*
"The best music, like the best painting, is entirely popular; it at once commends itself to everyone, and does so through all ages. The worst music, like the ivorst painting, commends itself at first, in like manner, to ninety-nine people out of a hundred, but after doing them its appointed quantity of mischief, it is forgotten, and new modes of mischief composed."
— Ruskin.
