Show Plan to Extend Scopo. What can tho University of Utah do toward rendering the people's up-preciatiou up-preciatiou of music intelligent and dis-criminating? dis-criminating? Squire Ooop as president of tho music section of tho Utah Teach-ers' Teach-ers' association will discuss this important im-portant subject before tho next meeting meet-ing of tho association, and has invited the leading representatives of othor educational institutions to proposo plans for publio enlightenment in matters mat-ters musical. While it is recognized that the university has, through the offering of courses in theory, harmony, musical history and kindred phases of music in genera, done much for the uputt ot tne standard so far as its sphoro of iullueuce reaches directly and personally its students, and while tho improvement noted has never been other than encouraging, yet the amount of good accomplished is not sufficient to satisf' the yearnings of the lovers of good music, who look forward to tho day when tho public taste will favor fa-vor only the good things and thus on-courage on-courage the genuine artistic endeavor. Discussing existing conditions and tentative ten-tative plans for broadening the work of tho university in the musical field, Squire Coop last night said: " There remains a persistent appetite for music mu-sic of a low grade, and an equally persistent per-sistent willingness to provide it. Wo need not expect local individual performers per-formers to educate the people, tho val-uo val-uo of personal Biiccess stands in the way, the success that is achieved almost al-most always by a sacrillco of ideals, for indeed it may bo said that popularity popu-larity is often tho reward of untaith-fulness untaith-fulness in matters of art as well as in other things. Therefore, to expect the individual to efface himself for art progress, prog-ress, even though tho offacmeut were to tho philistines alone would be like asking a man to. give up all he has and follow a principle too theoretical for his day." Realizing that the individual cannot successfully undortake tho production of tho best class of music with the od ioct of aiding the uplift of public tasto, Mr. Coop, boad of the music" department depart-ment of tho university, has directed a lottcr to tho board of regents, setting forth his viows and asking that a requisite requi-site appropriation bo made each 3'ear to permit of tho free public production of one or two groat musical worke each 3'ear. This, Mr. Coop is confident, would not only accomplish the end do-sired, do-sired, but mako the University of Utah famed throughout the land. Music at St. Mary's.
