MUSICIANS OF SORROW AND
ROMANCE.
FltE 1)14 It ICK C HOP IN P( )LANI>.
The music of Poland is to our
minds strongly associated with
music for (lie piano. Many of our
great pianists from Chopin to
Paderewski have been of Polish
origin. The Poles have been al
most constantly the slaves of oili
er nations and the periods have re
sulted in sad and mournful
strains in their music.
Fred crick Cliopin (1800-1849)
boldly proclaims his love for his
native Poland. It was Schumann
who introduced Cliopin to the
world with the words :"Jlats oil'
gentlemen; a genius." There has
never been a greater charm exert
ed over the music of the world
than that ol Chopin, though ho
wrote only for the piano, with the
exception of a few beautiful songs.
As both a pianist and a compos
er, Chopin exerted a rare influ
ence on modern music by his use
of the Mazurkas, Polonaises and
waltzes of Poland. All of Cho,>
ill's music is poetic expression; he
gave 110 titles to his works and
sought to make no suggestions to
his hearers of the hidden "story"
which each listener feels is lurk
ing iu the depths of his musical
poems.
ROBERT SCHUMANN —GERMANY.
From earliest time we And an
interest in music in the land of
Germany. If has given more great
music to the world than any otluv
land. The legends of Germany
were sung bv Minnesingers, wlr'lo
the dances were kept alive through
the efforts of the town pipers
Many German student songs and
drinking songs were brought into
the church at the time of Luther,
and are now sung iu all churchei
throughout the world, set to re
ligious words.
In Germany the change from
the Classical School to the ro
mantic is less pronounced than in
other countries. Beethoven was
the connecting link between the
two Schools.
Robert Schumann (1810-185(5)
was the greatest master of the Ko
mailt ic School. He possessed
great musical genius, but as his
earlv education was pursued with
the intention of his becoming a
lawyer, Schumann did not have
the advantage of a technical mu
sical education, yet his romantic
imagination and poetic insight
make his compositions of extreme
importance to the Romantic
School. Schumann left many com
positions for string instrument,
as well as a number of choral
works, but it is as a composer of
songs and short piano pieces that
he deserves first rank. All of his
piano pieces were written for the
THE GUILFORDIAN
talented young pianist, Clara
Wieek, who afterward became the
devoted wife of tlio composer, His
tory tells of more ideal union
than that of Robert and Clara
Schumann unless it he the similar
one of Robert and Elizabeth
Browning.
On October 9 the Webst.M-ians
met to discuss the question,
"Should the United States Main
tain the Monroe Doctrine?" The
question was thoroughly discussed
from both view points, bill: the af
firmative won the decision.
This being the regular time for
election of officers the following
men were elected : President, F. H.
Morris; vice-president, l'\ 11. Men
den hall; secretary, 1). llodgin; as
sistant secretary, C. H. Pl.illijs,
and marshal. H. E. Nixon.
We were glad to welcome Mr. K.
C. Bulla into membership of our
Society.
On October 1! the Society met
at the usual hour, but on account
of the absence of so many of the
boys, who were attending the
Greensboro Fair, the regular pro
gram was dispensed with. The in
vitation from the Zatasian Liter
ary Society to attend their regular
meeting on Friday evening. Octo
ber 2.'5 was unanimously a . copied
and the Society adjourned pa\
a surprise visit to the girls' Socie
ties.
The girls were very much sur
prised to see us, but both socic ties
had splendid programs an i the
Websterians will long remember
that pleasant evening.
On October .'SO the Webster'ans
discussed the question, •■Should
the United States own ami operate
her railroads?'' Considering tiie
fact that every one had been busy
taking mid-term exams., the de
hate was good. Several of the new

made a good impression.

Blair. S. W. Geiser. 11. Capps and
L. Grissom.

ment and asked that so me of our
