"Regardless of how well sound is reproduced by
the 'talkies,' there will always remain a great demand
for actual concerts by artists," says Dean John P.
Marshall, head of College of Music, Boston Univer-
sity. "So much of the pleasure of a concert comes
from the personality of the artist, that no two dimen-
sion photography can supplant that pleasure, regard-
less of how well sound may be reproduced. Sound
pictures have this particular value," concludes Dean
Marshall. "They enable the artist to record his best
performance and apply his utmost ability to every
presentation. He has a greater incentive to rise to
greater heights in musical creation and reproduction,
owing to the opportunity for preservation there is in
the 'talking movie.' Posterity will see as well as hear
the spirit of our times as portrayed by favorite musi-
cians. By this new method of reproduction, medi-
ocrity in music will be relegated to a place well in the
background and the best will be pushed to the front."
