Launches New Program Plan

The Women's Music Club met in the Charlottetown Hotel last night with "Tire Story of Old English Music" as the subject of the pro- gram. There are to be two con- secutive meetings on this subject -—a new experiment in the activi- ties of the Club.

‘Last night's programme, dealt with early English music up to the

Golden Age, touching in par- ticular On eary keyboard music and madrigals.

Miss Msrgazet Stems read an exceptionally chaining and oom- prchcrislve paper on this delight- ful subject, taking her listeners, like the wearers 0t the magic ring, in very truth to that ancient Eng- land through the early cciitures.

In i000 B. C. Druid inhabited England had its bards, its songs, dances micl musical instruments. And all through the early history bards, hnrpcrs and gleemcn often played important DHYZS as llioy were allowrcl totratrel unchallenged and were welcomed at any camp oi court. Many are the interesting stories of those r-arlv musicians, At first (ho ilnin song melodies were sung iiii: mpniiled but lat- er LllO church slowed instruments like the lyze and the harp. And in the 10th century the organ came Ln use.

Miss Sterris summoned up an amusing and vivid scene at Win- chostcr when the organ played a thousand years ago, and organist-s were picked for thuir physique and endurance whilst the cuiigzegatlon cowerod with s. terrible astonish- ment,

Unlike poetry. painting and sculpture ancient music differs in its csscnce from modern. At, first it was simply one line melody, but its dcvcxopincnt was constant un- til in the twelfth century there existed a school of English popu- lar singing that ivas ahead of all COlllhlllpOfflfy music and that had an immrdiriie and startling effort on continental music,

The foundation of the Chapel Royal --a body of composer-sing- crs in Henry IVs reign had a wicbeiiing influence and many ex- am "'5 of this period are splendid we . The Tudors wcre all music lovcrs and (luring ‘tli ' reigns the Chapel Itoial remained 3:0 chief rallying point of musicians and on object of admiration to foreign visitors.

The pcriod of the great English school of Mair "mils (1588-1650) was called the ' lit-n Age" because the Lliijglish dcvclc-pmciit of the Nlarlignl was so prompt and rich and so lovely that it prepared the
