The reason for the pause in •the completion of lhe record llComs is -the move of the Music School to Gardencourt. Mr. Stamm, in an interview wibh ·a Cardinal repoDter stated th•at due to •t'he Music School's move llhe need for lis-tening 'NJOms on campus is not as great as it has been in the past. He added that several rooms in the present Music bu ilding are sound pl'Cofcd and that .if listening rooms were coJWtnucted om campus they would probably be constructed in lhe vacated music building, thus saving Vhe eJC})ense of soundproofi!l'lg >areas in the Annex.
