But the real romance of American
music lies in its carly buildings, cen
tury ago, rather than in the rich fruits
that the present day is gathering. II
was a little over a hundred years ago
that Jenny Lind, the first great rrima
donna to come and enter America, was
born in her faraway Sweden. 1t is just
a hundred years ago this month that the
first great American piano(ortc, the
Chickering, which Jenny Lird would use
Throughout al! her American tour in
years to come, was born in Boston.
Those two births weave themselves into
double importance and brightness as this
year which, marks the centennial OF that
| famous American inventor, Jonas Chick
ering, unravcls with such impressive
, ceremony.
Jenny Lind, the Swedish Nightingale,
as her famous American manager, p. T.
Barnum, proclaimed her, was undoubt-
edly the most wonderful singer to APP
pear i'll COHCcIC III lllc CHllSu CtdlcS up
to 1850. She was born Of the simplest
parents in Stockholm parish. 1t was
through Mile. Lundbcrg, a Swedish dan
Ger, whose maid heard her singing to
her cat that her wonderful voice was
discovered. There were years OF fair
success, years of dark failure and dis
couragement that followed, until at last
the pretty little Scandinavian girl had
become established as the greatest and
most famous artist of Europe But soon
enough she wanted new worlds to con-
qucr Barnum offered her America-and
Ito America she came.
1t is impossible in this day of the
skyscraper and the almost daily trans
atlantic steamer to picture the extra
ordinary excitement and stirring scenes
which greeted Jenny Lind's arrival here
IN September |, 1850, on the steamship
Hlantic. The not-so-hugc boat came to
its New FORK dock at Canal Street.
where two arches had been erected in
honor of the peerless singer on board

Jenny Lind returned to Europe. She
died in the Malvern Hills in England in
1887, nourned by the music lovers of
the world, great artist and most

Her work as pioneer in the making
of great American music was carried on

could not be put in the hold to the
wind-swcpt decks. Then down he'd roll
to Rio. The captain was ono of the real
beginners of the immense sailing trade
that grew up between Boston and the
South American ports. He certainly be-
gan what is now one of the biggest i'm
ports by the United States into all parts
Of the globe-the American piano.
There came one trip, however, when
the adventurous old captain, loaded
heavily and dipping into a great storm
as he neared the Rio coast, came to
mysterious grief. Down went ship and
cargo, down went captain and crew.
They were never heard Of again.
But in his own Boston, his own
America, Jonas Chickcring pcrsevcred,
as his sons did after him, to the up
building of American music. Jenny Lind
was only one of many artists to have
their aid and cooperation in being intro
duced here.
There was Theodore Thomas, greatest
OF all American conductors, called by
critic of international fame "a bene-
ficient Hercules who lifted America up
to where it heard at last the music of
the spheres. There was Won Buelow.

musician and artist in the world. The

One of the most beautiful anecdotes
is the following: On her voyage to
America she expressed her desire to be-

relates the anecdote, had her called at
early dawn and she stood by his side
