San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1923-03-11

probably the first secular song COM
posed by an American.
The first professional composer was
William Billings of Boston, whose
first attempts at harmony were writ
ten in chalk on the sides of leather
in a tannery, where he was ap-
prenticed. Billings seemed to regard
his lack of knowledge of musical laws
as a distinct advantage, saying
There is no need for hard, dry
studied rules, for that will not enable
any person to form an air, any more
than the bare knowledge of letters in
the alphabet, and grammatical rules
will help scholar TO wrife a piece of
poetry. 1t must be nature, and it is
best for every composer to follow his
own rules. To dictate to others, is
not only unnecessary, but a great
piece of impertinence." The chief con-
temporary of Billings was Oliver Hol-
den, whose Coronation" is as popular
today as it was when written. .
Other parts of the country did not
neglect the study of music. Philadel-
phia was the art center of America
during the latter part of the eighteenth
century, having degree of culture
that was almost European. The first
large concert given in this country
was in Philadelphia, May 4. 17SG, in
which there were go vocal and so
instrumental performers. In Boston.
March 80, 1916, the Handel and
Haydn Society was formed. with
chorus of 100 voices, only ten of
which were women, and a number of
oratorios were successfully performed.
DIR. Lowell Mason stands as the
chief link between the early American
composer and the school of the pres
ent day. His four sons have all been
prominent as musicians, and have had
much influence on the musical thought
of the country. The inventions of
Jonas Chickering in perfecting the
piano and the development of the
Symphony Orchestra to its present
day perfection was emphasized by
Mrs. Hertzberg rs being largely re-
sponsible for the position America
holds today as 1.-The world center of
music. the way having been paved
by those earnest advocates of music
through the three preceding CEN
turtles"
Illustrating the music of three CEN
turtles, the hymn, coronation, by
Oliver Holden, was sung by a quar-
tet composed of Mrs. Fred Jones, So
pranO; Mrs. Guy Simpson, alto,
Charles Stone, tenor, and Warren |
Hull, basso, accompanied by Miss Mil
lred Duggan. organist. An eighteenth
"Berceuse" was played by
Mrs. Il. NJ. Wheat. violinist, accom-
,anicd by Miss Ethel Order. Mac
)owelrs Concert Etude" was played
With much charm by Mrs. o. +. Bor-
lelon Jr. "Thc Morning of the
Year." by the modern American COM
,oser, Charles Wakefield Cadman,
vas excellently sung by the quartet.
With Walter Durham accompanying.
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1923-03-11
ORCHESTRA is COMING.

The two concerts which the St.
Louis Symphony Orchestra will play
here on April 10 are being looked
forward to with much pleasurable
anticipation By many musicians and
music-lovers, who find themselves I'M
satisfied by any other form of must
cal expression than the full and di-
verse interest of an orchestra. The
st. Louis orchestra comes at an aus
picious time, when San Antonio audi
ences have had an opportunity to
realize to the full what a blank the
suspended performances of our own
orchestra have left in the musical life
of the city.
The st. Louis symphony Orchestra
adds to its own excellent perform
ances the interest of two soloists
Carolina Lazzari. a brilliant young
contralto, whose singing at the Met
ropolitan Opera House has attracted
much praise, and Rudolf CAM. the
CONDUCTOR, whose fame as pianist
is too we'll established to need COM
ment.
Mr.. GAM success as conductor
is more recent, but no less marked
than his success as a pianist. Under
