teachers and he had been pleased with the standard reached by many of the successful candidates. That standard was proof to him of the good work which was being done ip this part of the Empire, At the same time he would like to impress upon them the necessity of not being satisfied with that standard-or in- deed with any standard-but. of pressing forward to still higher levels.
In the world of Art nothing stood til: Everything was constantly changing. Technique, methods of education, the idiom used by com- posers, and our own vision-these were constantly undergoing change. Teachers did not perhaps realise how much was expected for success in the College's higher examins- tions. Examiners looked for evi dence of wider reading and for some show of professional "grip."- Lessons in musical appreciation did a great deal towards developing the musiclably qualities in the candi- dates.
Mr. Mallinson then spoke of tono- colour in playing and gave an in- teresting account of how colour in music had arisen
"Music," he said, "used to be looked upon as a moving pattern in sound, but as it became, more sensitive, more temperamental, tone began to require colour value. Schumann and Chopin were the leaders in this new discovery though they had never sought inspiration directly in the painter's art, Now- -days tone-colour is being exploit- ed to the full."
The study of works, he said, by Kingsley, George Elliot. Walter Pater, Browning, Milton, Keats, H. C. Anderson, Scott, Shakespeare, the English translations of Euri- pides, together with some of the Psalms of David, did much to ward developing young musicians. spiritually. Music bad a dual nature. It was not only material but spiritual The College wanted ita students to become musicians, not merely dexterous performers.
