MUSIC INTERPRETATION
CLASS SATURDAY NIGHT
Edwin Hughes Tells Of the Ne
cessities of Real Musical
Intelligence.

Edwin Hughes of New York, as a
part of his regular session at the
Washington College of Music, con-
Quoted an Interpretation class Satur-
day evening which demonstrated anew
his pedagogic ideas Constructing his
message for this particular period
upon the technique of Interpretation
Mr.. Hughes. in a penetrating and
lucid manner, enlarged upon the re-
su!tart beauties of tone and balance
of phrasing which come only with real
musical intelligence. He pointed out
that the rare possession of an instinc-
tive sense of these characteristics OF
an artistic interpreter need not neces-
sarily discourage the individual who
has to have them pointed out to him.
Comparatively noting the similarity
in all the arts in the matter OF SYM
metry Of construction and the neces-
Sity for delivering an ineligible mes
sage, Mr.. Hughes stated that an audi
ence, whether it be unsteady cultured
or not, usually senses when things are
not as they should be. He deplored
the lack of musical literaCy on the
part Of even metropolitan audiences,
indicating the need of deeper musical
education on the part of listeners as
we'll as performers. The need of in
terpreters for the art Of music being
so constant, should encourage the am
bilious student who is willing to sub
nit himself to the discipline of prepa-
ration to meet the demands of the
widening circle of discriminating lis
teners, said Mr.. Hughes.
The authenticity of Mr.. Hughes
editingS is the result of paipStaklng
research, and the corrobOrationS given
his work in this line gave pertinence
to his admonitions. His supervision
of a large number of professional STU
dents lends confidence in his ability to
constructively criticize.
Response of an immediate sort was
evident in the playing of two of the
great examples of piano literature,
the "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor
and the "Chromatic Fantasy and
Fugue," by Bach. Architectural in
scope and important in every detail.
each of these works occupied period
OF close concentration. Among other
works performed were the "Cantique
dAmour," by LIT, the first move
ment of the Brahms Sonata in F Mi
nor" and several modern compositions
by BortkieWicZ and Prokofleff.
Mr.. Hughes has been invited to
teach during the coming Summer at
the International Conservatory. at
Mondsee, Austria, the acceptance of
which ponds arrangements for his
classes at the South Carolina State
College and his eighteenth master
class in New York City.

SILK STOCKING REVUE
is POPULAR AT GAYETY
Frank Silk, Comedian, Returns to
Ninth Street Theater After
Long Absence.

1.-THE Silk Stocking Revue" the
Gayety's medium of merriment this
week, offers an old favorite, Frank
Silk, who has a standing that is sec
ond to none in the burlesque circuit.
Sharing the honors with him is the
engaging Edna Dee.
What with "baggage-room sketch
es," Silks reminders of the days of
yore at the Ninth street house, and
several others that proved his popu-
larity, has not suffered by his long alb
sense, the humorous element of the
show. aided by Billy Wallace, Charlie
Schultz and Harry Cornell, was a de-
cided highlight of the Easter week
presentation. Songs and dance
rhythms scored Edna Dee as well as
Joan Collette In fashion that left
little to be desired Indeed, judging
by the audience, they were more than
little satisfied. Rita Cummings and
Aileen Dale filled the bill for good
voices. Fred Bishop, too, in this Ca
pacity provided an enjoyable moment.
The Wade team stays for another
week.

genuine sorrow. A voluminous
writer, he was also a yoluminous

Taylor Parker-a good name from

AFFAIR OF HOLLYWOOD
NIGHTS FALLS SHORT
Picture Starring James Dunn and
Alice Faye Is Mass of
Small Parts.

1865 Nights in Hollywood" now at
the Columbia, might have been a very
good picture, but it fell short some
where. 1t might have been turned
into cogent expose of the fake dra-
matte school racket, it might have
been fine gay love story, or it might
have been an extravagant musical,
but it is none of those things and
small parts of all of them.
Mostly 1865 Nights in Hollywood"
is much as if two-reel comedy had
been stretched out to feature length.
1t is the story of a famous director
who fails, takes job with the fake
school of acting, meets the girl, makes
a picture and comes back Follows
formula 37-a. This will not be the
story they use when they make the
great American motion picture. Its
only lease on life is that it offers some
excuse, no matter how little, for James
Dunn'S fine acting and Alice Faye's
gorgeous vocal efforts, and is not so
closely knit that it is marred very
much when Mitchell and Durant
break in with their antics of mayhem.
Mr.. Dunn seems to have completely
ignored the fact that the picture in
which he was playing was nothing to
shout about, for his performance as
the director would do credit to most
any film. 1t is an authentic job, done
with the proper vitality. Beauteous
Miss Faye's only claim to fame in this
is her way of singing songs, which
truly is the correct way to sing songs.
Mitchell and Durant are great in a
skit where they portray two wrestlers
meeting on the street, good in some of
their bits, and merely interrupt what
ever suspense there is in others. John
Bradford is natural" as the villain.
1865 Nights in Hollywood" has more
than few spots of entertainment, but
they are widely separated, and if you
can stand over an hour of a piece
which deserves two reels, it is even
conceivable that you might like it all
the way through. The film is sup
posedly taken from a collection of
stories by Jimmy Starr, but If the
Hollywood columniSt was responsible
for any more than the title, he should
, not brag about it. H. M.
