Different times, dflterent weapons. Mood music faces the challengé of the sound- 'élecmc age~in ‘its old field. The portable organ is elecmc. At the keyboard sits Goeffrey Gledhill, survivor of the days when every movie stage had its musical mood-setters and Holly- wood employed- from two to 300 musieians to sti the hearts of its high-priced puppéts as they faced the cameras. Beside him, with her violin, is Dolores Ordoqui, who started in the business a while before Gledhill did—back in its beglnnlnfl in fact, the Mack Sennett heyday. Hollywoo: The practically -extinct art—killéd ‘by talkies which made silence during shooting essential—originated by chahcé one’day when Harry McCoy, a-Sénnett comsdian, sat down at 'a set piano and began playing. His friends all laughed, not at his perform- ance ‘but’ because’ gay ‘music is likely to hdVe that effect. Music brought cheer, and ‘cheer -pumped -up the :morale; and - pretty soon the ‘word—and the music—got around to other stages. ‘Talkies stopped all that, and the mood-catering trade slump- ed. 'Diréctors. actors, everybody else were floored by the' sourid mechanism, and. sideline. music was one “of * the- first ‘victims of their mervousness. A few hardy souls ‘remained ‘loyal, ‘however.

They choose the tunés carefully, consult the script clerk about the scene coming up, and whether it’s a tear-ferker or a light or comie number they act accordingly. They can, if ' need be, turn ‘on the schmalz althongh both Miss Ordogui and Gledhill can look offended if one suggests that such musical excess is the stock-in-trade of the sideline: ‘musician, “I think we'actually save the studios imoney,” says Dolores optimistically. * “An English actress the other day expressed’ sur- Prise at having music’ori‘the set.
