Gaul Reappointed.
.EORGE GAUL. prominent N

GEORGE GAUL. prominent Wash
~ ington musician, and for the past
two years personnel manager of the Ma
tional Symphony Orchestra. has just
been reappointed to I'LL that post for
the 1933-34 season by the Administra-
tive Committee of the orchestra, Man.
ager c. c. Cappel announced yesterday.
Gaul has played an important role in
the affairs of the National Symphony
since its inception in 1880. Last year
he filled the triple job Of personnel
manager, librarian and violinist
We expect only few changes in the
personnel Of the orchestra next season"
Mr. Gaul said. I'm all probability the
first-chair men who were with us last
year. and who did so much toward
bringing the orchestra to its present
high artistic standard, will be In their
accustomed places when rehearsals start
next September.
THE orchestra will maintain its pres
ent size Of IS musicians. despite the
tendency on the part Of large SYM
phony organizations to reduce person.
nel," Gaul continued.
There will be 16 first violinS, IA
second violins. 8 violas. cellos. 8 basses
and harp in the string section. The
woodwind group will be made up of 8
flutes, 2 oboes, 2 first clarinets, bass
clarinet, bassoons, and an English
horn, while in the brass section there
will be 4 French horns, trumpets, 3
trombones and l tuba. We shall have
3 men in the battery section, tym-
panist and piano-celeste-h e-harmonium
player"
In his position as librarian, Gaul has
charge Of the large musical repertoire
Of the National Symphony. An idea of
the size of the orchestra's library may
be gained from the fact that, according
to Gaul, the National Symphony dur
ing the past two seasons played II ma
jor symphonies, 80 overtures and more
than IS miscellaneous numbers, ranging
all the way from the lengthy "Bolero," !"
by Ravel, to the brief, delicate Music
Box" of Liadov.
These figures" the librarian said
do not include the concertos and other
pieces played by the famous soloists
who have appeared with the orchestra
during the last two years. If these were
added. they would swell the total to
around $50 musical works during two
short seasons"
Gaul pointed out that this already
large library will be substantially aug
mented when Conductor Hans Kinder
returns from Europe the latter part OF
this month. He said. During his
travels DR.. Kinder Is always on the
alert for the meritorious works of new
composers as well as new editions OF
the old masterpieces. He Is sure to
bring back some interesting numbers.

Grandfather Rachmaninoff.

EUROPEAN news dispatches indicate
- that Serge Rachmaninof, noted
Russian pianist and composer. WhOm
Washington will see and hear next sea-
son as one of the attractions OF MRS.
Dorothy Hodgkin DOrsey's Tuesday con-
cert series at Constitution Hall. Is al
ready installed in his Swiss villa near
Lucerne, but that the current Summer
will Yield no new music from Rachman-
inoff's pen. because he is studying the
art OF being the perfect grandfather.
Rachmaninoff has decided that
Sophie. his 7-year -old granddaughter
the daughter Of Irene Rachmanino1
and the Prince Wo,kOnsky-is old
enough now to really enjoy a grand
father and he proposes to devote the
Summer Of 1888 to making Sophie just
as happy as grandfather can.
Rachmaninoff's ideas on the relation
ship that should obtain between
grandfather and his 7-year-old grand
daughter are calculated to start con-
troversy among parents who take them
selves and their parental duties seri-
ously, for the famous pianiSt-composer
saws boldly that a grandparent should
represent the cake of life to child and
that for his part he does not intend
to identify himself with any thing un-
pleasant in Sophie's experience. II
there is medicine to be administered
let Sophies parents administer it. If
she must be told not to do something
that. toc is job for the parents. Above
all. he will not undertake to teach
music to Sonhie for Sophie would soon
come to regard him. says Rachman-
inoff, as an ogre. There are too many
good teachers in Paris for me to try
to impart musical knowledge. Further
more, I have not the patience"
AL this was conhded to friend from
the United States, who stopped on At
Rachmaninoff's villa for visit and
heard the famous Russian discourse on
this and allied subjects. incidentally,
RachmaninOff revealed why. long after
no financial need exists, he continues
to endure the trials Of concert tours,
the weary miles Of train travel. the
boredom and monotony of hotel life.
"Artur Nikisch once said" remarked
Rachmaninoff, that the happiest days
of his life were those on which he gave
concerts. I feel much the same way.
The anticipation Of facing a concert
audience gives me the utmost pleasure.
From the time l awaken in the morning
of a concert day until the time comes
for me to walk on the stage, I await
with delight the moment when I shall
establish feeling Of contact with my
audience When 1 do. nothing brings
me more thrilling satisfaction"
