Fondness for Western
Music Shown by Js

The demand in Japan for all kinds
OF western classical music is In
striking contrast to the condition in
China. where native music is still pre-
eminent and where foreign melodies,
either classic or jazz are not welcomed,
declared6a representative Of an Amer
lean gramaphone company, after CONF
plotting a tour Of the : Far East re-
Gently. 81
Up until 80 years ago, he said, the
Japanese were almost entirely ig-
norant of foreign music, but during
this time they have rapidly become
educated to it and now there is, q
large demand for music by Beethoven,
Mozart, Brahms and Wagner. This ap-
probation Of western music is genuine
and not the result merely to be like
other countries, 1t is agreed. @
Foreign music. whether renderedsby
local artists or those from abroad, is
received with great enthusiasm. The
appearance of stars such as CALI
Curci, Elman and .Heifetz always
bring packed houses, while many are
turned away when visiting opera COM
