_ preciation and love of the ‘leading|Who has made it possible R a—— e gshi‘—‘-é.;{%g OW that the concert season is fairly Jaunched on'the proiessional stages of Washington, local organizations, including schools, clubs and churches, are vying each with the other to present interest- ing and unusyal concert programs on a smaller scale. In not a few cases well known artists of the metropolis are being ‘presented along with local singers and musicians. The First Congregational Church is particularly active among the local churches, and the Kitt Hall is offering public concerts given by visiting and local artists, giving local amateurs opportunity for a hearing by the public. The churches of Georgetown are turning their attention more con- centratedly upon music than in recent years, and there have'been several changes, particularly among the Episcopal churches there. New directors have taken charge in St. John's, Grace and Christ churches, and larger choirs are being organized for the winter programs. * ¥ ¥ X AX RABINOFF has been claimed to be a discerning prophet. He it was who first introduced Pavlowa and Mordkin and the Ballet Russe to the United States. He also directed the Boston Grand Opera Company, and now hg is sponsoring the second concert tour of the unique Ukrainian National Chorus, which will be heard in Washington again next Friday afternoon. Ewssei Bouloussoff, cellist, who will be the soloist with the chorus, has been spoken of as a “Russian Casals.” Mr. Rabinoff is quoted as saying as long a time ago as 1913: “The Russian spirit in music will dominate the immediate future of music in America.” And he added: “People outside of Russia have no idea how far ahead of the rest of the world are the Russians in the exquisiteness of their esthetic conceptions of music and drama.” This chorus of singers from quaint Kieff, a city that overlooks the Steppes, has not only learned many things of the rest of the world in the tour of three continents last year, but has adopted folk-songs from many countries. American folk-songs have been added to their program, in- cluding wild songs of the Indian warriors, levee songs of the Mississippi megro, mountaincer songs and songs from puritanical New England. Their repertoire now includes Mexican and Spanish songs, too. #* %k ¥ % IT is with regret that the announcement came that Mme. Lucrezia Bori, the charming little Spanish prima donna, who deiighted with her cos- tume recital here last year, was forced to forego, for the present, her repetition of that concert so eagerly requested by many Washingtonians, Dbecause of the early opening of the Metropolitan Opera House, where La Bori is a particularly brilliant star. It is to be hoped the postpope- ment will not be for long. - * k' & % SPEAKINU of postponements suggests another singer who, due to un- fortunate colds and general iil health, has had to cancel recitals sched- ied for this city several seasons in succession. Emilio de Gogorza, the Spanish baritone, has personally stated that he feels his health is safely back and that he will not disappoint his many admirers in the Capital this time. He is listed to sing at the National Theater, November 8. * k ¥ k UTH ST. DENIS and Ted Shawn, with their company of graceful dancers, emphasize the artistic value of their work, and call many of the numbers on their programs “music visualizations.” According to a recent statement issued by Miss St. Denis the company’s latest effort in this type of dancing has been to “visualize” a “synchoric orchestra, that is, to have the girls each interpret different instruments, correspond- ing to a symphony orchestra. She has already made the experiment in California, with Schubert’s lovely “Unfinished Symphony” as the music motif. The score calls for sixty musicians, so sixty girls, clothed in draperies of varied colors and | posed to interpret different moods of the music as handled by the various instruments, were stationed in the proper places on a large stage. The drummer was represented by a rotund girl draped in black, the clarionet girl was in pink, the cornet representative in mauve, etc. There were flap- ping violins, leaping cellos-and crawling flutes, as well as many others weaving the pattern of the symphony. Miss St. Denis says she wishes to try the experiment some time in a public performance. It should cer- tainly prove unique to watch. 7 =) ¥ ok ok ok ASH!!\{GTOI\ is not forgotten in the pretentious fall issue of Musical ¥¥ America, for two pages are _devoted to photographs of leaders in grofesslaual and community music in the Capital and a lengthy article y Dorothy DeMuth Watson, local correspondent of the magazine, on what has been achieved here musically in the past year and plans for the com- ing season. a : * ¥ * WOR'.D has been reccived from those in charge of an interesting recital given during the middle of the past month for the benefit of the Japanese relief committee that it was a pronounced success.

Owing to the fact that the Metro- politan Opcra season opens one week earlier than planned last spring, the management finds It necessary to change the date for Lucrezia Borl's costume recital announced for tomor- rew at Poli's Theater.
