MUSICALS NOT
DEAD, SAYS
ROMBERG
BY HARRISON CARROLL.
Copyright 1870, Premier
Syndicate, Incl

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, July IL.
Talkie musicals are not dead. but
stand instead upon the threshold
of success, according to Sigmund
Romberg. composer of "The Des-
Iert Song" New Moon" and
other famous American operettas.
Mr.. Romberg, who's under con.
tract to Warmers, put his position
to me today briefly and conf
IDENTIFY.
IT only wish everybody else
would lay off operettas," he said.
Then we could sneak some over
and they would be six months
catching up."
Like Florenz ziegfeld, Mr.. Rom
berg scoffS at the hap-hazard
method in which Hollywood set
out to flood the country with
musicals. There are only about
10 men in this country today who
write operettas successfully" he
contended. 1T isn't fair to Judge
this type Of screen entertainment
until you see what men like
Friml, Rogers and Hart and their
caliber can produce.
"It isn't possible to take a stage
operetta and turn it directly to
screen use. On the stage we have
to keep in mind the necessity to
change scenery and to allow
proper rest periods for our sing
ers. In the talkies you can go
directly from one thing to
another. This means a different
technique and much wider oppor.
tunities. The real talkie operetta
will be written directly for the
screen"
Mr.. Romberg's initial attempt,
"Viennese Nights" looms porten-
tiouSly, as Warmers are preparing
to use it as test of the drawing
power Of the talkie operetta. AL
ready, the second Rombert- Ham
merstein operetta Is being pre-.
pared. 1t will be Children Of
Dreams" After that, the com
poser is under contract for two
more pictures.
