SIX THE MICHIGAN DAILY SUNDAY, MARCH 16, 1952 'ASTONISHING': Turk Views Music Schools Campus Calendar . . * * By HELENE SIMON "Because all my knowledge of American music has come from movies and jazz, I am astonished to see how far ahead America is in the field of musical education," Mitat Fenman, Director of the Ankara State Conservatory, de- clared. Fenmen is visiting the musical Institutions of the United States under the auspices of the Depart- ment of State. WHAT IMPRESSED the distin- guished Turk most was the op- portunity that American children are given to express themselves musically. This, he notedis very rare in other countries. Director Fenmen was especial- ly intereste in the musical tests that are given to children in this country to classify their musical ability. "Teachers do not go far enough to discover the talent that a child has in him," he said.. "In the future," Fenmen pre- dicted, "musical culture will spread out from the large cities to the small towns of America." * * * DURING his stay ii Ann Arbor, the cordial musician has talked Sto music professors and sat in on University classes. "American classrooms are less formal and there seems to be less of a barrier between student and teacher," he observed. On his tour the noted musician has visited such cities as New York, Chicago, Rochester, Wash- ington and Boston. While he was in Houston, Texas, the Houston Symphony gave a con- cert for Turkey, dedicated to the 'Mayor of Ankara'.
