  •  "Besides solving the problem of the inherent nature of colors in their relation to form, we have applied ourselves to a close study of the harmonious relation of these colors to one another. And, as a result of the incorporation of these colors into gamut-form, they convey the notion of 'time' in painting. They give the illusion that the canvas develops like music, in time, while both the old and modern paintings exist strictly in space. With one glance they can be felt in their entirety."

Music Curriculum, 1952, 1920s

  • The music program established while the platoon schools operated has continued to grow into a particularly gratifying one. According to Wade Thomas, Supervisor of Music, the people of Santa Monica have always had a strong interest in music, and expect music to be a regular part of the program of the schools. Special music teachers provide classroom instruction in voice training, music reading, and music appreciation in the upper grades. Other specialists instruct small instrumental groups in strings, brass, and woodwinds; while glee clubs, orchestras, and an occasional elementary school band provide additional musical training at the elementary level. [42. Personal interview with Wade Thomas, June 7, 1951; Santa Monica,, California.], 1952, 1951, 1920s
  • The music program is continued and extended in the program of the secondary schools. Piano classes are offered at the junior high school level as well as the opportunity to participate in the a cappella choir, glee clubs, band and orchestra. The high school and city college music program, Thomas points out, extend the secondary program even farther, providing great opportunity for both average students and those wishing to major in music. [43. Ibid.]
  • Student accomplishment under the direction of the music department is demonstrated each year through participation in three combined community programs:
  • The first is a Christmas program presented by various glee clubs and instrumental groups, and held annually in the Presbyterian Church.
  • In April of each year the glee clubs, orchestra, and instrumental groups participate in the Concert of the Masters, 1952, 1951
  • and the Symphonies by the Sea in May, 1952, 1951
  • These three concerts have become traditional in the community and are enjoyed by many music enthusiasts, 1952, 1951
