By Helen Fetter. USIC in its.truest, fullest interpretation seems perhaps the most cthereal emotional experience that man can enjoy on this mun- dane sphere. Yet - music, like cverything else that is accom- plished with the human being as its medium of production, re- quires definite, real work and much of it to achicve that result. It has t “all things work and move.” It is certainly a fact without work. There is a theory *o the effect that everything that exists is constantly in a state of progression or de- generation 1 still. So it is with music. Many .re readily available in Washington. Among the most obvious examples is the constantly recurring at- hestral organization to develop into the pro- to give symphonic programs in this city. There are ashington does not need such an organization, as list of the most famous of Ameri- can orche: Just last week the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, the oldest in the country and second oldest in the world, gave a remark- m beantiful interpretation under the direction of Wilhelm in Washington. Tuesday of this week the New York Symphony under another equally famous German conductor, Otto Klemperer, with a young American singer, who has made histc at the Metropolitan—Lawrence Tibbett—will give a con- cert here. The lowing week the Philadelphia Symphony will return under its leader, Mr. Stokowski, for its final program of the season in Washington Ko ky. the great Russian, will bring tr a second concert here this season in orchestral circles was the Cleveland hed itseli on the top level with cxcel- unusual ‘music which it presented in its debut It is to be hoped that this orchestra will been truly said th that nothing progresse There can be no stand practical iilustrations ef thi fact tempt to wet a practical portions 1 those who argue that V fortunate o ceessar being on the tourin able pro, Vurtwaengler, great German condict Orchest Apri!

City. v here next scason, and. indeed, thers above mentioned. * * II is obvious that the customary powers oi patronage that exist for orchestral support in Washington have their hands fairly full with the »ove list of fine visiting organizations. Yet, there is no real reason why t should prove a barrier to the gradual development of a fine orchestral body to be known as either the Washington Symphony Orchestra, or, bet- ter yet. the National Symphony Orchestra. A unit with the latter title should be able to claim interchange with conductors of all other orchestras in the United States as “guest” conductors. i The matter is merely one for the public to decide. cither to support to ignore. There are many people in Washington. who, as Charles Lamb remarked in his article entitled A Chapter on Ears,” could say, Sentimentally 1 am dispased to harmony: but organically T am incapable of 4 S They like musie, and are open to suggestion and generous if osted in the preper 1 but they do not as individuals possess the lity to start th ~ There are @ v a fourth group of musicians that might well be yed with judicious leadership and plenty of hard work into a symphonic organization of vital significance. One of these, the orchestra conducted Mischa Guterson at the Rialto Theater, makes its formal how this aiternoon in a symphonic con- cert of Wagnerian works. Mr. Guterson claims the honor of being the first conductor of a symphony orchestra in motion picture houses. He establi !jcd hin is work at Sid Graumanp's famous motion picture 2oes-—in Los Angeles. From there he came to Wash- ington. and has heen working for morc than a vear, building slowly. as is necessary, toward such programs ¢ is launching today. An unusually laudable feature of Mr. Guterson's programs, which are to be wiven every Sunday afternoon for one hour, from 2 to 3 o'clock fact that it is s0 arranged that the public wiil not have to pay anything extra for this hour of music. To thosc with such slim pocketbooks that it is impossible for them to afford any the visiting symphony offers what it is hoped will prove increasingly fine programs by an orches- tra that will be augmented from time to time. if the people support it sufliciently. Always, it is the “vox populi” that must ru'e. SECOND possibility for the development of an orchestral organization of stupendo oportions with the added advantage of governmental backing is the combining oi the three increasingly service organiza- tions, culling m those three baud orchestras—the Army, Navy AMarine—the best men orchestrally for a national®symphony orchestra. Toward the cud of this week Capt. Stannard of the Army Band Orchestra will present that group in the full glory of fts 90 picces in a special pro gram of orchestral music for the members of the Senate and House of Representatives—an annual concert which proved highly successiul last year. Licut. Benter of the Navy Band Orchestra also is doing logical and thorough work with his organization. bringing it up through the stage of the popular arrangements of light works to the plaving of more “meaty” compositions. Capt. Santelmann has long since established his group of musicians on a high plane, and. during his receat illness, Taylor Branson and Mr. Wiliiam I, Santelmann 7 g on” splendidly. A work by Bach is prominent on the program for the current week, and what is said to be an unusually musicianly picce of writing. a concerto for violin and orchestra, composed by Robert Stearns of Washington, was given its debut by this orchestra recently. ke ok Aok B TILL a third possibility of a national orchestra to have its headquarters . in Washington is the logical outcome of the establishment of an oper- atic school in conjunction with the Washington Opera Co.. for which already a sizable sum has been pledged. Jacques Samassoud. the Rus- sian conductor of the present orchestra of the company, has done much in improving its gencral status as an operatic orchestra, and is hard at work now in handling an augmented orchestra to play the orchestral part of Wagner's brilliant score of “Lohengrin.” . Of the fourth “idra” for a Washington symphony orchestra little has been rumorcd, but nothing has. as yet. materialized. suggestion is of the possibility of a concert in April. * * way. cach of the three above-mentioned possibilitics could be to tine results without stepping on the toes of cach other’s al development toward an ultimate national symphony not The latest 3 helling, the fine American pianist and composer. who comes here in concert this week with the Flonzaley Quartet, has been doing a splendid work during the past Winter in charge of the so-called children’s symphony. concerts given with the Philharmonic Orchestra in New York City on Saturday mornings. To one who heard one of these programs, the possibilities ior general education of the public at large. not limiting it to children, seemed almost endless and inspiring. The United States of America has never held to any false pretentions of being a musical | country in the past. It has been admittedly too busy growing up and getting financial and political bearings. Now, however. musical tenden- cics are heing encouraged along every line, and the time is ripe for their development. The average American adult has no conception of what many of the instruments in a symphonic organization are for—even the names of son f thesc instruments are mysterics to the young American husiness man and his club-attending voung wife, who have been busy since crowing up in “keeping up with the Joneses” in more material ways. The orchestra of a motion picture house has f opportunity to in- troduce these young grown people, as Mr. Schelling introduced large audiences of N York children and their equally fortunate mothers. to one symphonic work and one or more short works by imaster composers at every periormance. The most appealing movement of a symphony which possesses in- struments within the scope of a motion picture orchestra can be played, first introducing the main theme on the piano, denuded of orchestral srimmings. Also the instruments playing the solo passages in that par- ticular work can be introduced by the respective musicians using them, who can illustrate their purpose and the particular family of instru- ments to which they belong. There is an abundance of anecdotes of val- nable as well as interesting character to provide selective ground for a few notes that make a vast difference in the interest of the audience in a <hort composition such as. for instance, to use the program Mr. Schelling uted on February 6 in New York: The overture to Mendelssohn's “Mid- summer Night's Dream™ (introducing a demonstration of the harp by the harpist); the minuet from Bizet's suiie “L'Arlesiennc” piccolo); allegretto irom Brahms' “Second Svmphony™ (oboe solo and demonstration) : a Caucasian sketch, “In the Village.” by Topolitof-TIvanof (viola solo and English horn solo. with demonstrations), and several pieces uch as Liadoti’s “Music Box™ and Grieg's “Pcer Gynt Suite” to give variety. Such a plan could be used on a sma!l scale of one work with demon- tration and one short work without, as a beginning, instead of an inanc overture made up of a rchash of worthless, so-called “popular” mclodics. Surely. cither Mr Stokowski. who does similarly for the children of Philadeiphia. would supply ¢ carnest local motion picture conductor who wrote them for sugges- with practical and valuable advice. 1s get together, their numbers, utilizing the most ans of all three groups, would make possible programs ¢ is in symphonic music. ey HOULD the serv talented music of the very best the Shoul velop as it promises, it will make possible concerts of the best there is available in opcratic scores and could present one or more singers in an occasional program, too. What a feast of orchestral music is lying dormant at the very door of the National Capital. Yet nothing but hard. persevering work and co- operative efforts of citizens and musicians alike will provide the magic to dispell the long Barbarossian slumbers of the Washington symphony orchestra idea. 111 1 9 ‘ Brewer, La Forge.and Martin Shaw.
