"PAGE 812 sot new to Vancouver, but the Festival devoted entirely to sea music, which Is being organized to take place in this eity next January, la the first of Its kind, and as such Is attracting widespread attention. There is a vast amount of music connected with the sea, dating back as far as the Song of Miriam, which tradition says was sung to the Children of Israel, on the bank of the Red 'See. Yet somehow no one till sow had thought of devoting a 'thole series of concerts to this subject, and it is a tribute to the growing Importance of Vancouver as a world port that the Canadian Pacific Railway, which Is organizing this Fetslval, should have chosen to locate It here. It is lew than two years ago since the Canadian Pacific experimented with Its first Music Festival, which was held at Quebec and dealt with the folksong preserved by the French-Canadians whose forefathers brought these old songs with them to this coun. try three hundred years ago. That experiment met with such, favor that It was repeated on a 'still more ambitious scale last Spring. Beth these Festivals drew many visiters to Quebec from other parts of Canada and from the IMlted States, the Governor-Gen Now A Sea Music Festival Tha St Music Featlval, January 23-26. will b t4ed In ihla, the iiotel Vancouver. Inaet U a fiencral view of to Pacific Coait City aa viewed from the roof garden of the IIottL The idea of a Music Festival is eral showing his interest by going down to attend the celebration by special train. They have had, the effect of creating a better under standing of the French-Canadian people, and the lovely old melodies which had hitherto been known mostly In the backwoods of Quebec, are now being sung all over Canada. The leading musicians of this country are realiiiacUiut in these melodies Canada has a priceless heritage. . Following on the Quebec experiment, a Scottish Musical Festival was staged at Banff, in connection with the Highland Gathering. This made such an appeal to, the national pride of the Scots' that the Idea was repeated at the second Festival last September. At Winnipeg, the Canadian Pacific selected another phase of popular music available in this country, namely, the folksongs of the settlers of Continental European extraction, who are now renerally classified as New Canadians. Fifteen racial groups participated, and the demonstrations of folksong and folk dancing was a revelation to the Anglo-Canadians. One practical result of this Festival is the projected open-air folk Museum, for which the City of Winnipeg ha? declared' Hs readiness to provide the laniJ on groups have offered to build typical peasant cottages In which their handicrafts may be permanently exhibited. Such a Museum would undoubtedly provide Winnipeg with the toprlst attraction which at present Is admittedly lacking, and would also be the source of everlasting Interest and pride to every thoughtful cltlMn of Canada. , ..w ., . . .

John Goss, Jeanne Dusseaii. Paul Eal, and the Hart House Quartet, represent but a few of the names that should attract the crowds. Most interesting of all. perhaps, will be the Sea Chanties which F. H. Wallace, once a Captain on a Bluenose boat and author of "Wooden Ships and Iron Men" will stage. Captain Wallace has collected chanties from sailors on Canadian sailing ships, and can thus give a truly Canadian flavour to those fine old Sea Songs.
