Of them all, I‘d say, howâ€" ever .that jazz is the least appealing to my ears. To me, it seems to be just a jumble of notes, with no tune discernâ€" able. On the other hand, sacred music always strikes a responsive chord and when a fine low choir sings "Hallelujah Chorus" or chants the "Lord‘s Prayer" my heart fills. For variety give me popular dance music. Although it comes only second in my estimation, I enjoy it. Dancing in the parlour, to the radio, with waltzes and swing coming over, is fun. Then there are the operas Mind you. there are few that give me a pain in the neck, but only a few, "Il Trovaâ€" tore" and "Carmen" are fine, although I do wish they were sung in English. Personally, I think something should be done about those rearrangements of good pieces into swing. Let those tinâ€"horn composers compose their own pieces! What was one of my favourite pieces "Song of India" was swung on the radio the other day, and needless to say turned me against it. » I have six favourite selections nameâ€" ly: "Hallelujah Chorus", "Liebestrum", "The Lost Chord" "Piano Concerto in D minor," "Blue Danube", and "Inâ€" termezzo"‘.
