By Katharine Wright

Last Sunday Franz LISTS champion
ship of musical internationalism as set
forth by G. Jean-Aubry in LA Musique
ct les Nations" was discussed on this
page. Let us see what the French
writer has to say about the musical
renaissance in Spain.
Having emphasized the natural must
cal resources of the country, NJ. Jean
Aubry singles out Felipe Pedrell for
special consideration as patriarch of
the Spanish renaissance. At present
an octogenarian, he has not only COM
posed operas and symphonic poems, but
devoted much of his time to literary
labors in behalf of Spanish music which
might easily have completely filled the
life of less energetic man. In q
sense Pedreil is the inventor Of Span
ish musicology, for he is the editor of
the works OF Victoria, Cabezon, Vii
lalonga, Flecha Walls and others whose
compositions represent the music of
ancient Spain.
After citing numerous contemporary
composers and their works NJ jean
Aubry devotes successive chapters to
Isaac Albeniz, Enrique Granados and
Manuel de Falla. Granados is already
well known here by his opera "Goyes-
cas-" produced here several years ago
at the Metropolitan Opera House; by
his songs and piano pieces, and also
through untiring efforts to popularize
his music on the part Of his country
man Emilio de Gogorza and Ernest
Schelling.
Albeniz is chiefly known in New York
for his suite liberia" and for certain
fascinating piano pieces played by
George Copeland and Robert Schmitz.
His life was eventful. Born at Campre-
don, in the Province of Corona, in 1850
he began to take piano lessons at the
age of two. At four he played in pub
lie at Barcelona. The performance of
the youthful prodigy was SO brilliant
that enemies attempted to convince
those present at the concert that some
one in the wings had actually played
the pieces which appeared to flow so
smoothly from the child's nimble
fingers. However, positive proof of his
extraordinary talent was not lacking
and at six he went to Paris with,his sis.
ter Clementine to receive further in
struction from Marmontel. In spite of
his youth Albeniz wished to take part
in the competition for admission to the
Conservatoire. He took the examina.
ton well, and had it not been for ar
objectionable breach of etiquette or
his part an exception would have beer
made in his favor. Unfortunately

In the Realms Of Music and Art
G. Jean-Aubry Discusses the
i Renaissance Of Spanish Music
French Writer Praises Musical Resources of Spain,
With Special Consideration for Albeniz,
Cranados and De Falla

! having finished his task, the child took
ball from his pocket and proceeded
to bounce it against mirror in one of
the study halls. The mirror fell in
| thousand pieces, and his bad behavior
| resulted in delaying his entrance. for
two years.
Meanwhile he entered the Conserva-
tory of Madrid At this time the writ
| ings of Jules Verne fell into his hands.
| Tho fascination of these books in
spired young Albeniz with an Unsuitable
wanderlust At nine years of age he
ran away from home and jumped on the
first train he encountered at the sta
| ton, naturally without having provided
himself with ticket. Fortunately, he
met the Alcalde of the Escurial, who
| urged him to give q concert that would
provide him with sufficient funds to
return to the parental roof. Albeniz
gave the concert and thereby raised a
considerable sum of money. But he
had no intention of putting an end to
his travels. Instead he went from city
to city, giving concert after concert
By degrees eel nino Albeniz" became
the talk of Spain. In time the young
nomad made his way to Cuba and later
to the United States, where he knew
both poverty and success. He went
to Weimar, where he received encour-
agement from Liszt, whom he followed
to Rome and Budapest. The influence
exerted by the older man is plainly
felt in his music.
Not until his marriage in 1883 did
Albeniz finally abandon his love Of
travel to settle down in Barcelona.
Then, too, he began to turn his atten-
ton to composition. He was an indie
fatigable worker, and at his death in
1909 left innumerable compositions,
which included operas, piano pieces and
songs.
Manuel de Falla came into promi-
hence with the performance of his
ballet eel Sombrero de tres Pcos"
! ("The Three-Cornered Hat") by the
| Ballet Russo in London in 1910. Four
years later his opera LA Vie Breve"
was given at the Opera Comiquc, Paris,
Unlike Albeniz his life has been we'll
ordered. M. Jean7Aubry feels that
much may be expected Of him. He
considers him the most original and
characteristic composer Of the new
Spanish school and one of the masters
of the present day. His return to
Spain at the outbreak of the war and
his zeal in creating the National So
ciety of Music have contributed not a
little toward encouraging the efforts
of young composers and cultivating the
taste of the general public.
Spain already possesses two SYM
phony orchestras - LOrquesta Sin.
fonica, conducted by Arbos, and the
rmonica, directed by Perez Casa.
M. JeanAubry was responsible fo1
the first concert devoted entirely tc
Spanish music given in France, which
took place at Havre in 1910. In con.
clusion he expresses his satisfaction
at the recognition granted to Spanish
music within the last twelve years
but, he adds:
I'm many places the Importance
variety and personality of that ideal
company of composers which we cal,
the Spanish school still remains mere
matter of conjecture."

Damrosc1l Back
From Abroad
Talks of Vienna

Walter Damrosch, conductor Of the
New York Symphony Orchestra, ar
rived from Europe last week and re-
manned in town only day before leav-
ing for Bar Harbor, where he will stav
till October.
Mr.. Damrosch was appalled, at the
tragic conditions in Vienna, as com
pared to pre-war times.
These gentle and courteous people"
said Mr.. Damrosch, Seemed like chill
dren caught in trap, not knowing how
they ever got in and seeing no possible
way Of getting out. 1t will be the
crime of our times if we and the Allies
do not find some way to give back to
what is left of the former proud Aus
trian Empire a possibility of recon
structing on practical lines their eco
nomic existence"
"At present the country Is so Grip
pied that there is nothing left on
which to build anewX he said, and con-
tinued:
"The greatest suffering in Vienna
seems to have fallen on the intelli-
gencia, and l came in contact with
many cases which are terrible to con-
template.
Musical activities, however, are
still great in Vienna. ! attended the
performance at the state opera of
STRAUSS ballet, The Legend OF
Joseph and also witnessed Johann
Strauss Die Fledermaus,' which must
be heard in Vienna with a Viennese au-
dience in front of the stage to get into
the real spirit Of it.
