make advancement. In France, in Ger.
mony, in Italy, in Russia, the great opera
producing countries of the world, they have
insistently performed the works of native
composers, otherwise they would never have
sustained the world eminece in opera that
they command today.
Last season the distinguished pianist Josef
Hoffman,, put to his credit an event as I'M
usual as it was patriotic by plying an entire
recital of American compositions AS fore
word to the program there was reprinted
statement previously made by him, putting
the situation clearly:
about fifteen years ago, our American
ears has practically no markets here; there
WIS no pride invested in the home product
and in consequence there was no encourage
ment for the creative thought in that line.
Through the protective tariff, duties on for
eign cars rose at times as high as sixty per
cent. and a partial exclusion Of these ears
resulted in causing the public to turn it's
attention to the American output, and it was
this attention which created the favorable
conditions that helped to make the Amer-
can car what it is today wonderful scen-
tifc and mechanical achievement, the pro-
duct Of the American INVENTOR"
Mr. Hoffman, then draws parallel 'be-
tween the inventor in the mechanical field
and the creator in the realm of music. -
This brings us back to the point from which
we started Give the American composer his
rightful chance for public hearing, and he
will do the rest
Where recognition has been given Ameri-
can music, the story becomes happier one
to tell.
Because Of encouragement that should be
still greater, our salon music-music for the

outmatched Shaw in their attitude toward
our American composers.
Some change in this situation was brought
by the wars victorious ending. In the re-
sulting Outburst of patriotism, New York
conductors declared their intention of en-
cOuraging American music. Last season our
composers were better represented in New
York orchestral concerts.
However, throughout the country, the or
chestral conductor is still stolidly indif-
ferent to the American composer, giving
even mediocre. music that is foreign in
preference to American music that is good.
What encouragement is there for any man
to compose that which stands such small
chance Of performance?
In long years a steady stream of foreign
pianists has visited America, to return home
more or less financially revived. A few
among them played some compositions by
our priced Mcdowell; the rest left without
discovering any American piano music at
all.
Unfortunately our native pianists Of emf
hence seem to hold much the same idea. In
general they have failed to emulate the
brilliant example Of Fanny Bolomfeld-Zeis-
Ter, who has unhesitatingly played in her
recitals American pieces that appealed to
her.
Reginald De Koven, whose "Robin Hood
is looked on as classic, and whose "Can.
terbury Pilgrims'' at the time of it's per-
Torrance was pronounced the best AMER
can opera given at the Metropolitan, very
naturally writes with strong feeling for his
profession. In the New York Herald he
stated, and, as far as my personal knowl-
ed eggoes, without contradiction that the
two important operate institutions in this
country supported entirely by American
money, are so bound by contracts with for
edge goes, without contradiction, that the

tic Mt oopera by Americans.
Now, it is Of prime Importance that the
composer hear his opera performed if he
would judge wherein he may improve and
