B. F. Gilbert, a composer of distinction, will give a lecture at 8.15 o'clock tonight in Paine Hall on "The Frankfort Musical Festival of 1927," with some comments upon the contemporary music as revealed by the programs of this festival.
Gilbert is a hearty advocate of the efforts by Americans to attain a style distinct from those of European composers.
