A WORLD! By Michael Gold December 18 @ review of the New Masses concert of new Sovtet ¥ music appeared on this page, signed by George Maynard “for the Pierre Degeyter Club and the, Workers Music League.” The review, while praising the performance of the Freheit Gesang Farein under the leadership of Jacob Schaeffer, raised serious and fundamental ob- jections to the rest of the program. This criticism, as later events have proyed, was not shared by the Pierre Degeyter Club as a body. Numerous communications, both from members of the club and from other readers who heard the concert, take issue with Maynard's review. Among those who objected to Maynard’s appraisal was Ashley Pettis, Music Editor of New Masses. I cannot quote all of these letters, for obvious reasons. But the following communication from G. C., because of its complete statement and the wider implications coriterning all phases of cultural activity in the U. S. 8. R., deserves to be published in Sap entirety. . . , Section of Soviet Music ph review of the New Masses Concert of New Soviet Music, Com- rade Maynard has raised several questions that call for even more “discussion from top to bottorh,”than does the concert, “Though in part I am in accordance with his statememt that the instrumental part of the program was not fully representative of the trend in Soviet Music, yet I believe that the concert as a whole was & cross section of music in the: Soviet Union. Comrade Maynard seems to forget that the vocal part of the concert featuring the Freheit Gesang Farein was part of the program. Davidenko, Buglay and the others represented the younger composers of the U. 8. 5S. R. . . . composers wha formerly took a leading role in the Union of Proletarian Composers. The Miaskowsky is a beautiful ‘old quartet.’ It cannot be denied that the music shows signs’ of expert craftsmanship and genuine musicianship. Miaskowsky isa man well in the seventies, a man whose whole life is steeped in the influences of a past now rapidly vanishing. He uses naturally, a theme of old peasant Russia, a folk theme that others may have used before, but a theme he understands. This quartet was written in 1931, when Miaskowsky was still bewildered with new Soviet life, and dreamed of the old . . . but evidently Miaskowsky is no longer bewildered for his latest work is his twelfth symphony—Kolkhoz,’ a work dealing with the Collective Farms. What is important is that the composer wrote freely and unhindered what he wished to write— that his development was not a forced one, but grew out of the successes of Socialist construction and his growing sympathy with the Soviets. “Comrade Maynard completely overlooks the importance of this concert in exploding the falsehoods of the bourgeoisie .. . the pseudo- marxists, the Max Eastmans’and the Modern Monthly falsifiers who shed tears over the ‘regimentation of the arts’ under the Soviets. Here are works by Soviet composers ‘having no trace of ‘propaganda’ For instance, the sonata of Vitacek was written when the composer was but seventeen years old—at the height of the Rapp period. The sonata clearly reveals the infiuence of Ravel, Debussy and Wagner, and yet it was published by the State Publishing Trust and performed throughout the Soviet Union. Oswald Spengler, philosopher of Fascism in his ‘Decline of the West,’ in speaking of the proletarian state says, ‘The last Stradivarius’ violin, will ultimately perish. The whole enchanted | world of our sonatas, trios, symphonies and arias will be forgotten.’ ‘This concert clearly refutes such dogmatic statements as falsehoods. . . Freedom of Artistic Expression «TURING the early years of-the revolution, the young Soviet composers arganized the ‘Union of Proletarian Composers. Their extreme ‘Jeftism’ prevented the entrance into the Soviet Music scene of many of the older composers, who though not fully aware of the link of dialectics and music, were nevertheless, no longer opposed to the Soviet but convinced of the correctness of its’ line. Following the jon of the RAPP, (with which the Union of Proletarian Com- was affiliated) by decision of the Central Committee of the Com- j Party of the Soviet Union, those composers, artists, writers and other Breative workers again came forward . . . began creating, and were accepted by the Soviet workers as their own. Compare this with the artistic expression in Nazi Germany. The removal of musicians from) their posts on political, racial and religious grounds. This concert clearfy revealed to many, for the first time, the complete freedom of artistic expression in the Soviet Union. That is the great lesson this program of Soviet mu:ic teaches. “Comrade Maynard takes exception to Comrade Pettis’s program noies concerning the Chorale of Popoff in that the Chorale does not typify the ‘old, the revolutionary struggle and the new.’ It does not to me, either, but it does, apparently, to Comrade Pettis. I however, disagree that the music is jan... I believe I am familiar with the complete Liszt works for ‘piano and can find no trace of him in Ponof's chorale. — “To Comrade Maynard thé’Gliere quartette shows new influences and tendencies . . . to me it is artificial, banal and empty. It is precisely these musical differences that bring out clearly the greater degree of ‘abstractness’ in instrumental music than in vocal music. Music which We recognize as ‘proletarian’ és for the most part vocal in character. | Why? st . becatise, the undeniable linguistic link is what gives to it its rength of content. “‘Bome day, when Gliere breaks off his too regular rhythm and con- ventional hermonic schemes,’;says Comrade Maynard, ‘he may write works that will make us as proud of him as we are of Shostakovich and. Mossolov.’ I too am proud of Shostakovich and Mossolov, yet it 35 apparent from these lines that it is nob the Soviet Composer that Jf Mayvard admires, but the modérnist. It seems to me that his disappoint- ai ment is in that here was not a program consisting of the works of the Soyiet Union's experimental composers. I do not deny the importance of musical experiment, and in fa¢t the Soviet Union gives it the widest encouragement. Musical forums’ are held in which the composer, the performer, and the music lover! discuss new works. The concert halls, the opera and the radio are thrown open to new works of all types. Modernism in Musie must be remembered that even in America, most modern works are “ sient Ee heard by small audiences of ‘musical sophisicates,’ and that i to the Russian worker, who under ‘Tzarism’ heard little of any concert music, a steady fare of this type of modern music react strangely. Joshua Kunitz relates a story of a book dealing with the care of horses which was being issuedto the collective farms. The cover design was a mod- “ ernistle conception of a horse. .'The reaction of the workers was ex- pressed by a peasant who stated, ‘How can we believe this book, when you don’t even know what a Horse looks like’... I relate this only to show that the listener must travel through all stages of artistic apprecia- tion. a “TI feel that the New Masses’ concert of New Music was an important eyent. It is regrettable of course, that difficulties such as always arise - the working class movement prevented the use of a more suitable .. tuditorium, prevented the engagement of a symphony orchestra for the _ Performance of works by Shastakowich, Mossoloy, Kriens, Davidenko and other young Sovict Composers, and perhaps too, of the Miaskowsky ‘Kolkhoz’ Symphony. Va ais “What is usually forgotten is that there are many current active in the Soviet Union.
