Glimpses of Stage Folk
in Washington.

EERDE GROFE and Paul Whiteman
joined forces shortly after the
close of the war, when Whiteman was
directing a small dance band on the
West Coast and Grofe held a job as
pianist In the Los Angeles symphonic
unit. Grofe continued to do double
duty for some time after the begin
ming of his association with White
man, taking of an evening now and
then to play Hayden or Beethoven
down town, while the portly Paul
fretted, fumed and dug up another
jazz pianist for the night.
Whiteman was and Is a talented
Snowman, man of sound concert
ideas and good musical taste, but he
never possessed any vast technical
knowledge Of music. Consequently he
regarded Grofe as q treasure when he
discovered the rotund, kindly little
man could handle a jazz orchestration
with the sure skill of Bach arranging
a fugue, and a certain proportion Of
the knowledge. Grofe became his ar
ranger, and Immediately set to work
to build new and broader effects around
the popular melodies Of the day. He
found the music house scores thin and
almost purely melodic. For these he
substituted his own ideas, writing for
the wind, string and rhythm section as
If he were arranging a choral number
with quartet, parts.

the addition of ballast to f1imsy jazz.

COMEDY PERFORMED BY
CUE AND CURTAIN CLUB
George Washington University
Group Handles Kelly Play
in Splendid Manner.

The walls of the Wardman Park
Theater probably are still trembling
little from the roars of laughter which
shook them last night during the
two or two-and-a- half hours the
players of the Cue and Curtain Club
of George Washington University were
on the stage in their Interpretation OF
George Kellys The Torchbearers.
1t is said that Mr.. Kelly wrote his
play by taking vaudeville sketch and
putting first act on one end and q
third act on the other, but however he
did it he succeeded in packing an eve
ming with just about as many laughs
as it is possible to crowd into an eve
ming. He pokes fun at the Little
Theater" and amateur dramatics with
a mad farce almost totally lacking in
plot but amply supplied with lines that
cause the sort of outlaws which start
down inside of you somewhere and end
up by bouncing back and forth from
one wall of the theater to the other.
Last nights production was triumph
for the players and for Anton Hardt's
direction.

role, turned in stellar performance

Each movement of a Grofe opus tells
some little story or paints a scene.
He prefers the narrative form because
it is alive and full Of movement. For
example the "On Trail" movement
from Grand Canyon Suite" which he
plays at Loew's Fox this week simply
describes a trek down a canyon trail
on burro back. The burros bray. A
cowboy sings plaintive, aimless
melody. The travellers pause for a
moment at little tavern. A music
box tinkles. The caravan moves on.
Technically the most perfect and to
us by far the most interesting Of
Grofe's works is Tabloid" drama in
which horns, violins, cellos and drums
tell the story Of the newspaper, the
picture of life as reporters see it
crime. gilded weddings, yacht races
and the tenements of desperation. Not
long ago the composer himself directed
an 85-piece orchestra in the perform
ance of this one at the Radio City
Music Hall. BY use of the revolving
stage, the play was enacted in panto-
mime as the orchestra played.

denly has a desire to make bed and
bureau for himself.
Broadway was new and therefore
exciting street for Grofe. With
Whiteman he found himself suddenly
a prospector along the imitation Grand
Canyon. He wrote Broadway at
Night" a piece never published ex-
cept for use by the Whiteman band.
Grofe found musical expression
satisfying. He became more and
more engrossed in the problem of
evolving a language to tell of Amer
lea, in terms Of its jazz, its legend
and colloquialism, the inherent and
symphonic dignity in its life.
The result was Mississippi Suite"
which treats OF the Father of the
Waters from its source in the Mime
haha country down through the mid
die South into New Orleans, the
Creole country, the land Of the Mardi-
Gras. Next he experimental with
Grand Canyon Suite" composition

in 1920 with some pieces which at
once established the band nationally.
Within a few years anybody who did
not know whispering" and Lime

Whiteman by name.
Grofe continued to be the orches-
tra's sole arranger until a flood Of
new music, new engagements, Vic
trola recordings and other insistent
demands necessitated the hiring of
some assistants. These men later
did individual work Of their own,
specializing in certain types of tunes,
and since Grofe left Whiteman they
have carried on the whole job.
