Music, art contribute

knowledge of culture

Continuing in their contributions to the cultural

background of students, the music and art departments

offered a wide range of courses. In addition to band,

orchestra, and choir, the music department includes

music theory and music appreciation.

Students taking music theory concentrated on the

fundamentals of writing music, while those in the

appreciation classes discussed different styles of

music and music history.

Instmments at Deansboro, New York, where students

had a chance to try several ancient instmments.
