1930—PART ONE. THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, JANUARY 12, MUSICIANS FORM SYMPHONY CROUP Rudolf Schueller to Lead in’ Promising New Capital Organization. Eighty musicians of Washington, who have chosen Frank Frost as president of their governing board, have announced the formation of the National Symphony Orchestra. They have chosen as their leader Rudolf Schueller, director of the | opera school connected with the Cleve- land Institute of Music. Mr. Schueller plans to make flying trips to the Capital to conduct rehearsals such as the first two held last Sunday and Monday mornings, while the practical part of the organization of this orchestra was , 8till in state of formation. Representative citizens of Washington who were present at that first rehearsal and pledged their efforts to enlist their organizations to back the orchestra, and who now have done so, are Charles Darr and Charles J. Stockman of the Wash- | ington Chamber of Commerce, Gen. An~ ton Stephan of the Merchants & Manu facturers' Association and Mrs. Ger- trude Lyons, vice president of the Dis- trict of Columbia Federation of Music Clubs. At Monday’s rehearsal Mrs. Jo- seph Stoddard, president of the Federa- tion of Music Club here, and Mrs. Wal- ter Bruce Howe, a distinguished mem- ber of the Washington Composers' Club, gave brief but enthusiastic remarks on the formation of this orchestra. George F. Gaul, spokesman pro_tem | for the orchestra, told of the plans hav- | ing been considered for some time, but | stated that they could not materialize until a sufficient number of Washington musicians pledged themselves ready to take part in so unusual & co-operative affair and until the civic organizations pledged their support. Frost Praises Musicians. Prank Frost, newly elected president, gaid yvesterday: “It was the sporting quality of these musicians in co-operat- | ing so completely and unreservedly that won my allegiance. I feel that the plans as they have been worked out are not only feasible, but thoroughly practical. We will give only three pro- grams this Spring, the first probably the end of this .month, the second in February and the third in March. Next " year we hope to establish & full pro- gram of varied activities. Washington has been one of the few great national capitals that has had no symphony or- chestra. It is now hoy that the Jong-felt want in music of this type is to be at last realized through the co- operative spirit of both musictans and conductor. The new orchestra, named purposely the National Symphony Or- chestra, -instead of the Washington Symphony Orchestra, it is hoped, will, in time, be the representative musical organization of the world's =greatest nation.” Plays Violin and Viola. Mr. Frost, who became . nationally famous for his success in' the mining industry, always has been musical. He has played va instruments, al- though the violin is his favorite. Af present he plays the viola 'and is in the viola section of this orchestra. In April, 1926, while he was stil! living in California, where he made his home | until moving to Washington a year ago | last Fall, Mr. Frost gaye one of the most remarkable music festivals ever given anywhere, in conjunction with | Mrs. Frederick 8t Coolidge, the famous patroness of music, who donated the | fund to build an@ sustain the chamber. music hall in the Library of Congress. This festival, given in Ojai. Valley, Calif., presented among the famous art- ists participating Myra Hess, Harold Samuels, Anne Thursfield, Hans Kindler, the Barrere Ensemble, the London String Quartet and the Persinger String Quar- tet. A $1,000 cash prize was given a string quartet written by Heybrecht, | who later won one of Mrs. Coolidge's | prizes for a work presented first at a | festival given in Washington. Although | he has played in chamber music groups for a number of years, this is Mr. Frost's first appearance as a member of a _lrlgxe symphonic orchestra. e other officers of the govern: board for the National Symphony g}'— chestra are: Rudolf Schyeller, vice president; Sol Minster, secretary; Rob- ert Staszny, treasurer, and George Gaul, orchestra representative and business manager, Rehearsal Showed Authority. Mr. Schueller, whose background | seems impressive and whose conducting | at the rehearsal Monday morning | showed authority and musicianship as well as the intangible, necessary qual- ity of leadership, announces as one | ideal in the program plan of this or- chestra the playing of at least one work by an American composer at every con- ¥ Dr. Edgar Stillman Kelley, emi- t American composer, was present these first two rehearsals. He has the honor of having his *New England Symphony” chosen to appear with works by Wagner, Bizet and 2t on the first program. A work by Mary Howe, Wash- ington composer, is to be given on the February program. Mr. Schueller, who comes entirely | new to Washington sudiences when he | appears in charge of this orchestra at. | this first_program, was born July 31, | 1884, at Bohemian Leipa, in the Ge: man part of Czechoslovakia.

When 18 years old . he conducted an orchestra of 60 musi- | clans and several publie performances of his third opera, “The Marriage of Urrianne,” were given in his native town.
