Présentation de l'éditeur
To those of us who are anxious for the development of a national school of music in America, a recognizable American idiom, it is worthwhile to consider what this Frenchman has to say about French nationalism in music, for France is recognized as one of the countries whose characteristics of musical expression are individual and easily distinguished. Says the author: “I have not asked myself what is French and what is not. It is a question that should not be asked. One is certain that the reply will be inadequate. It is right to be French in everything; but one must not be so of set purpose.... The French spirit, French taste — these are things that do not define themselves, do not put themselves into formulae. It is not that they lack body and reality; on the contrary their reality as we see it in history is too much alive, too overflowing — and how should we do not feel it stirring within us? There is nothing more real, more distinct, than the physiognomy of an individual especially if a superior personality shines through his features. But that is a thing that is felt and cannot be defined. It is the same with the French spirit. It is a living individuality.
–The Musician, Volume 26 [1921]
