Using what might be called the cream of the Boston concerts, Dr. Koussevitsky has made an unusually fine program for the Second Sanders Theatre Symphony concert to be held tonight. Stravinsky's orchestral music for the ballet 'Lo Baiser do la Fee" is the opening number, and is to be followed by Strauss's tone poem, "Don Juan", and Sibelius's Fifth Symphony. All three of these have been written within the last fifty years--the first in 1928 and the last in 1889--and their composers are still alive, but there is a world of difference between them. Only...

Reading, of course, is necessary, but it should be strictly subordinated to composition. In the first semester in particular, it would be helpful to read fine models, such, for example, a chapter in Travelyan's "History of England", do a little correlated reading in the library, and then rewrite a chapter, not with the intention of aping the style, but with an eye to clear, precise, and thoroughly readable presentation of facts...
