THE CRITIC TALKS TO MUSIC LOVERS

of their organization. this will also,
in some way, be made apparent.
Two interesting instances of this at
titude on the parts of the conductors
and the musical public have been shown
in the last twenty or thirty years.
The composers involved were Brahms
and Anton Bruckner. Brahams had
fcw enthusiasts (though the most able J
among conductors of Europe: Bruckner
had the support of practically every
capellmeister on the Continent.
There was a perfectly good reason for
this conductorial support of Bruckner.
He had knowledge of the technical re-
sources Of composition. which has been
at the command of but few composers
since Mozart. who possessed not only
the most perfected technique. but every
thing else that n composer must have
TO become immortal. In addition,
Bruckner had all the resources of mod :
crn orchcstration at his command. In
short. he had everything to make his
works interesting in score.
/ But there was one great difference.
and that quality was evidently not ap-
parent to the learned conductors, but
was instantly seized upon by the un-
learned but musically discriminating
public: Brahms had human feeling
and spoke with the voice of his time,
whereas Bruckner represented the
academcian. who knew everything mu-
sically. but could not voice the scnti-
ment of the era in which he lived. The
result is apparent in the relative pro-
portion today of the Brahms symphO
nies and the Bruckner symphonies upon
symphonic programs. And in this con =
nection. it must be considered that
Brahms wrote four symphonies and

can show like record: Or. for that
matter, how many compositions in any
of the nultitudinous musical forms
which were written fifty years ago are
still in the repertoire? Very few,

been definitely and permanently placed.

Bach, pointing new paths, which will
be followed to the extinction of the

was a multitude of composers who
were considered TO be far greater than
the mighty Sebastian; but when his
music began to be realized at its real
value, many years after his death,
these composers promptly faded from
tbe scene Perhaps the ultra mod
crnists will produce a later Bach who
will hurl into extinction the works
which have gone before. But he will
have SOME job on his hands. The mas

THERE is certain atmosphere in
l. both "Otcllo" and "Falstaffo'
which. to the English speaking races, is
perhaps more readily understandable
than the equally intense but relatively
unfamiliar atmosphere of 'Aida!' To
certain extent this Is due to the fact
that both of the later works were built
upon plays of Shakespeare. with which
intelligent English speaking people are
familiar
II speaks volumes for tho ability Of
that Incompatible lihrettist. Arrigo
| Boto. that he was able to maintain
this atmosphere in librctti written
originally in language to which he
was not born. but the spirit of which
he absorbed more thoroughly than most
Englich speaking persons have ever
been Il 10 to do. Verdi was ono of
the monumental operate gcniuses of
oil time. but he owes much to the mar
velous libretti which Boito supplied
him.
There was never a man so capable
of making a perfect libretto as Boito.
Not only did he have full command Of
number of languages but he was the
| only lbrcttist who over lived who
wrote operas himself. and yet recogniz-
ing the greater genius of Verdi, he was
willing to give up his career as an
Opcratic' composer in order to supply
the libretti for greater talent. 1t
was Il sacrifice of personal ambition
for art that is seldom found.

T Asst Christmas Eve was the ifticth
II anniversary of Ncrdi's "Aida" and.
TO Judge from the popularity of the
opera. II will easily go another half CEN
tury and probably good bit longer than
that. All things considered. Aida" is
the most popular opera in the intcrna-
tional repertoire. and 1t may we'll be
considered the best work that Verdi ever
composed.
With due consideration for the opin-
ion of those who hold that the so-called
Fourth Period of the Verdian creative
life, which includes "Otello' and "Fal-
staffo.' is superior to anything In
Aida" this may well be doubted. The
admirers Of the latest Verdi are chiefly
what may be termed operate sharks
those who are familiar with the 'rcgu-
lar repertoire and who. therefore. are
thoroughly competent to express an in
tclligent opinion. But back of all this
lies the fact that they often hear Aida
and but seldom hear "Otello' and still
more seldom "Falstaffo. Therefore,
the admittedly great beauties of these
later works seem more impressive than
they actually arc when compared with
the tale of the Egyptian princess aud the
Abyssinian slave girl.
In aida" Verdi realized the best Of
his early period in melody and. as a
matter of fact, he went but little beyond
"Aida' in orchestration either in
"Otello' or "Falstaffo.'

Rail Rates andswages.

Although comparatively few railroad
executives found time yesterday to study
official copies of the Interstate Com
merce Commissions rate decision. their
general view Of 1t was much more en-
couraging than 1t was at the first news
of the announcement. 1t is strongly
probable that the carriers will effect
voluntarily the rate reductions without
waiting for the issuance of the CON-
missions formal order. Great interest
was attached to yesterdays meeting be-
tween the Commissioners and the COM
mittee headed by Daniel Willard. presi-
dent OF the Baltimore and Ohio. The
view held yesterday by some executives
was that the rate reductions would
silence for year or more shippers
clamor for lower freight charges and in
sistent demand in many quarters for
amendments of varied character to the
transportation act of 1920 Tho rate
cuts in all probability will heighten the
Railroad Labor Boards sense of re-
sponsibility in dealing with pending ap-
plications for wage cuts and hasten It's
decisions thereon, tho first OF which.

ence to the impending cut in freight
rates reflected the conviction prevailing
in the financial community that the In
terstate Commerce Commissions deci-
sion was economically eound. although
It might hava been mora 30 If the re-
ductions had rbeen confined to basic
commodities. In effect. the decision
give all other classes OF shippers the
10 per cent. cut in rates given in Janu-
ary to agricultural products shippers.
1t is estimated roughly that current
freight revenues are running. at the
annual rate .of $4,000, 100000. The I'm
pending 10 per cent. cut, however, will
not amount to as much as 100000 900.

Independent oils Up.

A feature OF yesterdays market
which was inclined to be reactionary In
the general list. was the strength of sew
eral independent oil stocks. Such stocks
as Marland. Houston. Phillips, Cosden,
California Petroleum and others gained
small fractions to moro than thres
points. The recent speculation In steel
stocks appeared 10 have turned yester-
day into other groups. Copper shares
also were inclined to do better and
although many Of them showed frac-
tional net declines at the end OF the day
the character of tho buying In such
stocks as Kennecott. Chile, Chino and
American Smelling was impressive.
Rumors Of coming big copper consoli-
dation will not be downed by denials
from insiders and many in the Street
believe that denials are moro technical
than otherwise.

May wheat dropped yesterday to
$1.271d. which represents a decline of
1919 cents bushel in two days. The
break was due primarily to the large
flow Of wheat into Chicago for delivery
on May contracts To date 5000, 900
bushels have been delivered and 2.000,-
900 more are en- route to Chicago. A
year ago May wheat sold up to s1.79s4,
fell In the following day to s1.6s and
then resumed its advance. The month
finally closed out at $1.s7la. Those
prices are in marked contrast to this
years prevailing figure.
