NEW YORK (By NEA Service)-
An all-American orchestra!
From conductor to drummer, from
first yiolinist to trombone player
| Americans all.
What is said to be the first Or
chestra answering this description,
which will play on a national scale,
is now preparing to our the country.
The organizer is the conductor
Howard Barlow, and it took him 10
Hong years TO fulfill his dream of an
orchestra of Americans for Ameri-
cans.
Barlow is a native of Denver,
Colo. He came here ten years ago
with his idea. But no one would
listen, and he had to have financial
backing.
By persistence and plugging away
he finally gathered about him
enough lovers of music with means
to start. His finished orchestra is
the answer
Recently he gave an initial con-
cert. Only friends were invited, and
the affair was supposed to be rather
secret. But some New York critics
managed to squeeze their way in,
and their subsequent praise was long
and loud.
One of the announced features of
the national tour is its purpose of
| developing musical talent while en-
route through the country. Ffnan-
cial gain for anyone, or any group,
is taboo.
European orchestras," says Bar
low, provide a means of expression
for the native artists of European
countries. We propose to provide
such an opportunity for native
| American musicians. This orches-
ira is pledged to the belief that the
path of great international art IS
hrnnph great national art"
