Jolson's Brother
Harry Says Grooming
Melodies Are Coming

A harmony jazz that won't split
your ear drums though played on your
nearest neighbours photograph at mid
night-that's what Harry Jolson.
brother of the w%ell-known Al, also a
tlackface comedian. predicts as the
next step in popular music.
Harry and Al have always had
friendly family arguments about music.
Al rather likes the happy. noisy type.
and Harry leans toward the song with
a room and swing that comes from
way down south.
"Aw, l don't mean h~ighbrow stuff"
he explains carefully. but, honest,
| don't think negro melodies ever were
intended to be shouted to the accom-
paniment of wild cavortings or cow
bells and k%ettledrums.
You take 'Swanee River Moon
a song I'm singing now. 1t might have
been a chant of the southern cotton
fields, so soft and sympathetic is the
undercurrent. It's not jazz at all
but a haunting, wistful melody. a di-
rect follow-up of the songs that used
to be part of the religious rites of ma
tive Africans.
Incidentally. mark my prophecy.
it's the next step and an upward one,

HUTCHINSON PLANS
NOTABLE CONCERTS
FOR NEXT SEASON
Famous Pianist Arouses Great
Interest With RecitalS'
Announcement.

The announcemen emf that Ernest
Hutchinson will next season give a
series of five piano recitals at Aeolian
hall. New York, and that each recital
will be a one-composer program, has
aroused great interest. For there is
no pianist before the public who draws
a more discriminating or responsive
audience when he appears in the me-
tropolis than does Hutcheson.
The series will feature the works
of Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Schumann
and List. When asked why he did
not include Brahms, Mr.. Hutcheson's
answer was not only satisfactory as
regarded Brahms, but also the other
composers whose names might, at first
thought, seem to belong in a series de-
voted to the great piano composers.
I'm a series of programs not attempt
ing a complete historical survey, but
much of high value in the literature
is necessarily omitted. A word of ex-
PLANTATION is assuredly due to those
who will miss the names of Mozart,
Mendelssohn, Schubert and Brahms.
Mozart, outside of his concertos, car
hardly be said to have given his best
thought to the piano. Dealing generally
with the same basic forms and ideas as
Beethoven. he was altogether excelled
by the latter. The same may be said
of Schubert, at least as regards his
sonatas. and the impromptus and mo-
ments musicales, enhancing and orig
inal as they are, put forward too slight
a claim.
"Mendelssohn. for all his finished
workmanship. offered only a novel
genre. He neither gave us new forms
or ideas nor excelled others-develop-
ment of the old.
Brahms, perhaps the most regret
table loss to my scheme. took his forms
from the classics and derived his
thought from Schumann's remanticism.
His intermezzos and capriccios are
again only a new genre. though of ex-
.traordinary beauty and interest. His
true supremacy as a piano writer lies
in his use of the instrument in cham
Der music. There, he easily surpassed
all his forerunners and successors. Nor
should the Importance of his two con-
certos be forgotten, though they lie
beyond the scope of the recitalist.
Finally. it may be permissible to single
out the F-minor sonata as perhaps
the finest example extant of romantic
thought expressed in classical lines"

RADIO is PREDICTED

Free b~roadcasting service by private
corporations cannot continue indefinite
", and eventually some method must be
found by which radio as a public util-
ity will be paid for by those who
use it.
This is the opinion expressed by
Jack Binns. famous writer on wireless.
in the June issue of Popular Science
Monthly.
I'm my opinion there is only one So
luton to the problem he says. 1T
ties in the probable attachment of a slot
machine to every radio receiver-a ma
chine SO designed that a family will
drop a nickel in the box for an even

ENESCO COMING NEXT SEASON

Among the announcements from The

greater interest than the one by Lou

make his first visit to this country
next season appearing as s%oloist, con-

Enesco is one of the most vital fig

was born in 1881 in the little town of
Cordaremi. in Rumania. He went to
Paris to study the violin and. after
winning first prize at the Consera-

one of the greatest among living violin
