How Some Famous Composers Were Paid
For Their brilliant Creations.
Handel, had it rot been for his ora

would have lived and died rs poor rs
the proverbial church mouse. Walsh,
his publisher. paid him pitiful prices
for his operas. For at least IL Of these
works he received no more than % guin-
eas each, and the largest sum he was
ever paid was only. CLOS, which he got
for 'Alexander's Feast. 3" 1t must not
be thought from these small prices that
the composers works did not sell On
the contrary, they always found a ready
market and proved "a great source Of
profit to the publisher. From the pro-
ceeds of his first opera. 'Rinaldo,"
Walsh netted a profit Of over e1, 500,
whereupon Handel jocularly remarked
to the music seller, "Well, you shall
compose the next opera, and will pub
lish it. y Handel, as everybody knows,
lost a fortune III trying to establish Ital-
ian opera in London, and, although he
subsequently more than recouped him
self by his oratorics, it was not the pub
Usher, but the public, who put it in his
power, to do this.
Even when we come down to the time
of Mozart, we do not find that the claim
Of the brain worker to fair wage had
been recognized. 1t almost staggers one
to recall the fact that Don Giovanni"
brought to its composer no more than
ego For 1.-THE Magic Flute" he was
paid just 100 ducats, and yet the man
ager of the theater at which the opera
was first produced made fortune out
of it. No wonder Mozart had to be laid
in a pauper's grave, the very site Of
which is unknown to this day. Schu-
bert Jared even worse. Some of his mag
nificent songs sold for less than a shil-
ling, and at his decease it was difficult
to. raise enough money to bury him
Haydn's income would today be deemed
small by player in the theater or
chestra. and his estate was almost a
minus quantity. Weber, who died about
20 years ago. received less than $500 in
all for his "Freischutz, one of the
most popular operas ever written, while
from his five other operas he made only
81, 600 altogether By The Bohemian
Girl Balfe gained less than 81 500,
