Glenn billiard Gum in the Chicago
Tribune last Sunday wrote a highly in
teresting article on the Factors that
Determine Artistic Success in the World
OF Music"
Influence, advertisement talent, per-
sonality-these are the factors that de-
| termine artistic success. The casual
music loYer who comes into contact with
| distinguished personalities only across the
footlights or through the records OF the
talking machines is prone to regard fame
as the inalianable right and the inevitable
reward of great talent; he does not realize
| that influence was necessary to bring
| every great artist now conspicuously be-
! fore the public to o first important hear
| ing; that vast advertisement is necessary
| 10 keep that artist before the public; that
| talent only occasionally stands in direct
ratio to fame; that an attractive or mas,
netlc personality Is not always possessea s =
| by the artist upon whom the public elects
| to bestow its favor most lavishly.
| He discusses the careers of Mr Pader-
ewski who was first assisted by Nine.
Esipoff Leschetisky and other friends oil
| position who introduced him to the So
ciaily elect of Paris. The advertising he
received by the Steinway firm also played
great part in his success His person
ality is fascinating and his talent un-
questioned. Josef Hoffman had the in
terest and support of wealthy Ameri-
cans, and the talent, which has done the
rest. He also has personality, but 1t is
too sane for romantic souls to surround
with a strange exotic glamour Mischa.
Elman has helped by wealthy friends, and
his great talent has proved IT, good
investment Mr.. Gum maintains that
Fritz Kreisler was recognized as one Of
the greatest by musicians, and in Eu-
rope. and yet the public stayed away
from his concerts in large numbers. until
he happened TO write two little pieces for
| the violin which were tuneful bits and
exquisitely played into the photograph.
Thousands of lovers OF victrola music
thus learned that there was a master
violinist named Kreisler. and his fame
is still on the rise in this country. Ku-
belik is an example of how advertising
has succeeded over a negative person
ality. with marvellous technique but no
talent. He was introduced to this coun-
| try decade ago with the most sensa-
tional circussing a musical artist ever
had. Many other instances are cited of
the worlds most celebrated artists which
merely add weight to Mr. Gums clear
and concise statement Of the factors of
| silCceRs In the mukicaI world
