AMERICAN JAZZ MUSIC
GAINS FAVOR IN MEXICO
But Natives Are Slow to Accept It
in Place of Classical
Selections

! MEXICO CITY. December 15 (Corre-
spondence of the Associated Press).-
American jazz music, which until re-
Gently has been received coldly by the
Mexican public, is gaining in favor
and no dance program or cafe con-
cert here is now complete unless it in
cludes three or four selections rem
iniscent of Broadway's whining saxa-
phones and syncopated pianos. The
reason for the slowness with which
the capital has succumbed to the jazz
is that the latter possesses none of the
rhythm and seductive melody of ma
tive Mexican music. nor of the Span
ish and Cuban music, which is next
in popularity.
Bands and orchestras abound here.
The Mexican is a natural musician
and the songs that have been written
for him range from the wild rebel
chant of the La Cucaracha" to the
dreamy, romantic Beautiful Mexico"
Concerts are given in the parks.
Although termed popular" they are
made up for the most part of grand
opera selections, and American rag
time as yet has not found a place on
such programs. The Mexican is a
lover of classical music.
