Press Agentry as
Used for Concert
OF Sousa's Band

h The world OF opera and concerts,
i vell as many others, great is the
.ss agent, he who stands on that
.ssaowy, indefinite border line that
.rsdss the news item from the paid
.xseraisement. His mission is TO blend

Usc Of profuse adjecsives is a crude,

sastebasket; far more adroit is the
method adopted by the gentlemen who
announce coming events at the Hippe-
aroue, as in the case Of Sousa's Band.
which gives it's annual New York con-
cert there this evening. Early hints,
az hags doeuvres, were broadcast a
month before; Commander Sousa, we
wara told, would break the precedent
ofs lifetime and present the original
manuscript of new march to the 7th
Regiment. Nearer came the date and
thicker the foretastes, and there has
been hardly day during the last week
without its revelation. What unique
numbcrs would adorn the program and
what people Of prominence would hear

I Nhat, for instance, are the ten best

.iens.n Curiosity is sharpened by the
lack Of details. We are only told that
they are not all the works Of great
composers, nor yet all folksongs, nor
ID they necessarily represent the great
eft music ever written. The bandmas-
ter will simply play his number and let
the ensuing controversy rage. 1t is
cutie likely that there will be one.
After all, what are the ten best tunes :?
Ii the second theme Of Schubert's I'm
srished Symphony, for instance, among

So much for the concert, but the dis
snsers Of publicity are taking care
that Commander Sousa shall not vanish
rom the public mind until next years
concert. he has, we are reminded, been
asked for years by Mary Garden to
write "an American Carmen" for her
benefit, an opera on a typically Ameri-
can theme. and now intends to meet
Mr.. Robert W. Chambers at the Hippo
drome to discuss story. This done
and his concert tour concluded, he will
retire to his Port Washington, Long
Island, home for the actual compost

New Compositions
To Be Introduced by
Composers Guild

Unusual programs of works to be
heard for the first time in America
have been arranged by the Internation-
al Composers Guild for three Sunday
evening concerts at the Klaw Theater
December II, January 21 and March 4.
The Guild, formed last year for the
special purpose Of advancing modern
music, will give the latest works of
composers in Europe and America, both
OF known and Of hitherto unknown but
promising musicians. A group of skilled
instrumentalists are giving their serv-
ices for the ensemble, while composers
in the Guild will conduct and distin-
Guished artists act as soloists.
At the first concert Nine. Georgette
I.eblanc-Maeterlinck, known as crea-
tor Of roles in plays and operas by
Maurice Maeterlinck, will appear as a
singer in what is believed to be her
first appearance here in this capacity,
although she has sung during the sum-
mer at Newport, Bar Harbor and other
places, her proposed concert with Mr..
] Stokowski and members Of the Phila-
delphia Orchestra in Mr.. Barnard s
cloisters on Washington Heights for
the benefit Of French and Belgian or
phans on October 80 having been can
ce1ed, owing to rule forbidding tn g
orchestra to participate in a benefit
performance with a reduced personnel.
She will sing "Pleur de Vierge," a new
composition for the voice, violin, viola
and cello, by Arthur Lourie, former
Commissioner Of Music in Soviet Rus
sia, and two Goethe songs by Ferrucio
Busoni.
A unique piece for six trumpets, the
second movement of symphonic
suite, "Men and Angels which is the
work Of Carl Ruggles, recently dis
covered American musician of great
promise, is included in this program.
Other numbers are quintet by
Vaclav Stepan, Czech, and violin
and piano sonata by Arthur Honniger,
member of the famous Group Of, Six,
the band of French artists who have
set Paris and other European capitals
| agog with their innovations.
| The entire second program is to be
devoted to a startling work by Arnold
Sch6nberg, which created sensation
in Europe last year. Besides these
concerts, which only subscribers to the
entire series may attend, three lee
tures on modern music will be given
free to the same audiences.
The composers banded together in
the league are Seh5nberg, Maurice
Rayel, Ferrucio Busoni, Erik Satie,
Carl Ruggles, Lord Berners, Bella Bar
tok, Alfredo Casella. Acario Cotapos,
Bernard Van Dieren, Carl Engel, Louis
Gutenberg, Frederick Jacob, Zoltan
Kodaly. A. Walter Kramer, Arthur
Lourie, z. d. Rudyhar, Carlos Salzedo
Flcrent Schmitt, Heinz Tiesen and Ed
gar Varese, the music director.

SFT~ERT VAUDEVILLE
WELL RECEIVED

Shubert's vaudeville and musi-
cal comedy made its debut al the
Playhouse yesterday and was well
received.
"Mulligans's Follies" was the at
traction. The show is typically New
York. with a distinct smack OF
Broadway. There were plenty OF
tuneful melodies backed up by a
pretty chorus. Not small part of
Its success is due TO the wit and
humor OF the comedians DeHaven,
Nice and Joe Towle.
The three comedians buriesque
various songs and subjects. Towle
gives a iaughable demonstration OF
the young lady OF almost any family
playing The Midnight Alarm" on
the piano. Nice and DeHaven do
a character dance entitled, Dance
of King Charles Chasing Bugs"
There are some beautiful scenes
with the true Shubert touch. One
of these is Entertaining the Sheik."
Il lnClt - cNNAN al sfNN
tent of the Sheik. Margaret Merle
sings an Egyptian song with a love-
ly and plaintive Tilt. There is a
thrilling Bedouip song by Ward I.
Cassidy, who sings II with true
Arab fervor. There is a pulse
quickening Slave Dance" by Bettie
Dennison, and then there are all
Ben Ais Arabs, who perform Won
derful acrobatics.
As though this were not enough
there is a scene from the Isle of
Kikuyu, which must be Hawaiian,
judging from the mode of attire worn
by the beautiful damsels. There is
an aquarium scene where these
same beauties all come out in shin
ing gowns of sequins looking like
mermaids, and last but not least,
there is the beautiful sight OF the
stairway Of Love"
II was truly a worthwhile show,
and Wilmington is to be congratu-
lated in obtaining a production
which will only make the larger
cities during the season.
Another Shubert production.
Echoes of Broadway" will be at
the Playhouse tonight and tomor-
row, with Friday matinee.
