Description

Listening To The Orchestra by Kitty Barne. First Published, London, 1941, Reprinted 1942 (twice), 1944.

Prelude
THIS book .... is for the large and undistinguished audience, the middle and near-middle brows, who get their music mechanically or not at all who seldom hear any discussion on music who have not the language, and find books and articles on the subject distressingly full of unknown words but who cry with the poet

My little skill,
My passionate will
Are here; where art thou?

because they know music is as necessary to them as the air they breathe. We amateur listeners do not love great music until we know it, and with our untrained ears that means many hearings. Only when we know it can we take part in it as we listen. Only then are we like Keats watching his bird if a sparrow comes before my window I take part in his existence and pick about the gravel. So we build up a precious collection, pursuing our symphony, lover like, from radio to phonograph, from phonograph to con cert hall, adding to our store year by year. Here it is that this small book may help.
