Deems Tayl To Benefit or Talents Radio Music His Selection as Consultant Gives Promise of |- Distinction in Important Field of Public Entertainment. By Alice Eversman. N THE announcement sent out by l ago, America was looked upon as a the Columbia Broadcasting Co. of the appointment of Deems Taylor as consultant on music for the system, the appended comments of Mr. Taylor on his appointment sum up the attitude toward music in this country. | musical desert, a country that paid Mr. Taylor says: “Fifteen years fabulous fees to European musical artists, but had no real appreciation of serious music. striking phenomena of American civil- ization is our ever-widening interest in the best that music has to offer.” Further, he says: “This interest, this growing importance of music in our daily lives, is, in my opinion, directly traceable to radio. The radio has be~ come and will remain music's most important medium of transmission, and no musician can afford not to take it with the utmost seriousness.” ‘With Mr. Taylor in an advisory position in the Columbia’s program department, the futire broadcasts will ‘undoubtedly feature the type of music | that will make musicians want to take it “with the utmost seriousness.” THB radio directors carry a tre- mendous responsibility in forming and guidihg the musical tastes of a large portion of the citizenship of this country. Communities that are too isolated, or not yet capable of having concert courses of their own, are solely dependent on the radio for a knowl- edge of the best music. That they should continue ‘~ receive, not only pleasurable progfafhs, but the kind that will arouse their own interest to a further demand for the best, is the obligation of the companies that include music in their broadcast- ing features. Mr. Taylor is the kind of man to keep the needs of these communities in sight. In his ‘own work, while never deviating from a high stand- ard, he has managed to infuse his compositions with & particular charm that appeals to every type of music | His wide experience in all de- | lover. partments of music, his writings, and his program comments over the air, have made him a familiar personage | in every fleld. To his great musical talent, Mr. Taylor adds lesser ones as an expert | carpenter, bricklayer, cook, amateur architect and linguist. His pronouncement as to the in- Creasing interest in the best music has been amply borne out this past Bummer, when, throughout the coun- try, crowds have continued to avail themselves of every opportunity to| attend concerts. The Water Gate . Concerts, in proportion to the Summer population in this city, were well patronizéd in a way to prove that they were mot to be considered a | novelty of one season. Every report from Hollywood Bowl mentions the crowds that flocked to this beautiful concert setting, and. many evenings when disappointed numbers were turned away. Other cities | with a similar record are Portland, Oreg.; Oakland, Calif.; Cincinnati, Chicago, Philadelphia, Hartford, Bos- ton and, of course, New York. Special festivals were held in Denver, Provi- dence, Rochester, Ashland, Ky.; Seat- tle, Atlantic City and many others. N THE Berkshires, this year's fes- tival, at which Serge Koussevit- Today, one of the most— sky and the Boston Symphony Or- chestra appeared for the first time, drew splendid audiences, thoroughly enjoying the artistry of fine sym- phonic programs. At South Moun- tain, Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge con- tinued her musical philanthropies in. the line of chamber music on the site where for 18 years she has carried on the now famous series. Last De- cember Mrs. Coolidge donated the mountain to the South Mountain Association, including the concert hall and various buildings and will con- tinue her financial support. The con- | certs are free and tickets are being distributed by the musical director. The plans for these Summer activ- ities have been formed by far-seeing people, who realize thé value of giv- ing good music the year around. The Summer-concert idea has grown with amazing rapidity and it will not be long before every large city will find an enticing outdoor site for orchestra or festival concerts. The beginning was the work of a few, but each year others are added who wish to provide cultural opportunities during the off season. But no matter how enter- ‘prisln; these music lovers might be, their projects would be doomed to failure if there were no response from the l]ayman. From the enormous Sum- mer audiences that are reported all interest in the best that music has to offer,” of which Déems Taylor | speaks, is borne out. | ELDOM has an artist passed to the | Great Beyond so profoundly re- | gretted as is Ossip Gabrilovitsch, memory of great performances re- mains, but rarely does that memory | emphasize the wonder of beauty and poetry as does the remembrance of Gabrilovitsch’s ant. In a particu- larly individual way he seemed to have captured the very essence' of loveliness and specially trained him- self to give it out again for the en- joyment of lesser-gifted mortals. He saw deep into the heart of music and sensed with rare acuteness its spirit- earthly poesy. Not only did he per- fect the material medium of repro- duction, but he understood the exact color of the tonal scale, by which to | express the deep, underlying current of beauty and thought which he saw | with such understanding clairvoyance. His last appearance here with Al- bert Spalding was unforgettable, al- though he was but a part of the sonata program. The musical world has lost more than a great artist in | the death of Gabrilovitsch, for the warmth and sympathy which per- meated his music lifted him into the slender ranks of great souls, of which even the music world can boast of few worthy of that designation. Community Center Music. Community Center Department of the public schools announces the organization of its amateur mu- sical groups which will meet at the | various centers during the coming | season. At Central High School, the Com- munity orchestra, directed by S. Page Ford, will give an opportunity for pleasure to instrumentalities who wish to play chiefly for the love of it. Musical artists who want to read sym- phonic literature together and give public performances during the Fall and Winter months may receive in- formation about joining this group, which rehearses on Tuesday evenings. Louis Potter will direct the Wash- ington Choral Society again at Cen- tral Community Center, rehearsing each Tuesday at 8 p.m. Choir singers of the city churches and those expe- rienced singers from other parts of the country who enjoy performing some of the world's best song litera- ture are invited to join. This season the chorus plans to sing the Bach “Christmas Oratorio” and Christmas Carols at its mid-year festival and the Brahms “Requiem,” which will be pre- sented in the middle of the year. At the McKinley Community Cen- ter, at Roosevelt, and at Buchanan Bchool in the southeast section, as weil as at other centers, orchestras and bands of various lodges and socie- ties rehearse each week. Roosevelt Center plans to start a unique chorus which is to be composed of two people from each State in the Union. It will have volunteer cone ductors and .its repertoire will be chiefly patriotic songs and songs by American composers. Chaloner Barnes, who supervised between 75 and 100 .community sing- ing classes last year, announces that classes will be organized agsin. this year and that special community sings will take place later in the sea- son. Several such sings were con- ducted last year at different centers, and in connection with the Eastern High School movies. Continuing last year's successful wenture in class piano Instruction, classes will be formed for children after school and for adults in the evenings. With the opening of the centers, children’s choruses will start sgain, and courses in aesthetic, folk, tap, and social dancing at every eenter. s Mrs. E. K.
