give expression not only to a
of the Netzorg School of Pi-
ano. Dan Frohman's sense
of humanity and com-
mitment to the community
will serve as a model for
many who cared to attempt
to assume the career of
composer - conductor - per-
former, as it has served as a
superior model to his col-
leagues during his lifetime.
I do not think that the ac-
complishments of the stature
of Dan Frohman will ever
fully be known to everyone
... he will be sorely missed.
The American Jewish com-
munity will ever be enriched
by his having been such an
integral part of it.
I know that all of your
readers will join me in ex-
tending the warmest sympa-
thy to his wife and to his
family, and in pledging to
Rebecca the kind of moral
and human allegiance which
she in her own right and
through her own artistry so
richly deserves
profound sense of sorrow,
but also to some personal
feelings which I know will be
shared by those who were
fortunate enough to have
known Mr. Frohman over the
years.
His was a reticence, yes,
even a shyness of publicity
and no sense of self-aggran-
dizement, which deprived
the community at large of a
real knowledge of his true
worth. For one thing, Dan's
musicianship was of an ex-
tra-ordinarily high order. Not
only was he a natural per-
former and composer in the
truest sense of the word, but
he had an ever-searching
mind and an uncanny sense
of curiosity, musically as well
as artistically.
His training was thorough,
indeed few are familiar with
the fact that he studied,
among others, with one of
the greatest of Jewish com-
posers, Ernst Bloch ... but
what was equally impressive
is the fact that he served the
community perhaps more
than anyone within recent
memory through his mar-
velous creative ability.
His directorship of music
at various synagogues and
temples, both in Detroit and
in Cleveland, was unique.
He was one of the few direc-
tors who wrote their own mu-
sic, and that music was of
such magnitude that it en-
riched the literature far be-
yond the borders of his own
association with any one or-
ganization at the moment.
His catalogue of com-
positions is a most impres-
sive one.
I have had the good for-
tune of working with Dan, as
I indeed had the privilege of
being associated with his
equally gifted wife Rebecca
for many years on the faculty
Difficult it is to accept
What comes later than fame.
The last pages of each tale,
Though different roads—en-
ded same.
The glamorous path now
gone,
Compare it with the stoney
way.
Night confronts them both
When ended is their day.
The new fresh plucked blos-
soms
In brilliant sunshine wades.
"Tomorrow," we find
Has faded_their shades.
Its hard to believe,
Raptureous, vibrating
throng,
Now ended in silence,
As ended life's long -song.
