N O'Clock, Dorothy Hodgkin Dor
VI Sey will present, at Constltu-
1 ton Hall, the Vienna Boys
Choir tDie Wiener Saenger-
knaben).
With the collapse of the Austro-
Hungarian monarchy at the close OF
the World War, the choir found itself
deprived of the state support, which
had maintained 1t from the begin
ming, and for time it appeared that
it would have to disband. The Rev.
Josef Schnitt, rector Of the organiza-
ton, however, believed that the sing
ing unit could support itself by con-
certS and obtaining permission OF the
Austrian government to continue TO
live at the old Hapsburgh palace in
Vienna. Father Schnitt has found
it possible, since that time. to carry
on the Saengerknaben tradition by
means Of concerts.
The choir will sing a group OF
church songs by sixteenth century
composers, such as 20 Saluttaris
Hostia," by ]. Nascus Q503-1506), I'm
Dominica Palmarum" q. Gallus,
l550-159D, In Ferio v. Maj. Held,
by de Palestrina 1525-1594), and Re
pleti sunt omnes," by Gallus. The
secular songs will consist of Franz
Schubert's "Serenade," Brahms
"Wach auf," Enmer's "Sidlianisches
Jagdlied" and Strauss "Geschichten
aus dem Wienerwald." They will also
offer the operetta Der Hausliche
Krieg" (the Household War;, by
Franz Schubert, who. like Franz
Josef Hayden, was at one time
member of the choir.

Widow" Later he studied further IN
Milano and, at % years Of age, made
his debut in grand opera in the role OF

Lescaut." Here he was discovered
by a conductor of the Metropolitan
Opera Co. and the following year
came to that organization, where he
has sung leading roles ever since.

Ravinia, San Francisco, and Los
Angeles Grand Opera Companies.

Notes on Today's

y ARL Philip EMANUEL
II BACH, one of the several sons
of the great Johann Sebastian
IN to pursue a career Of music,
Is. with the exception of Will
helm Friedemann, the most important
among them. His music had the mis-
fortune of being composed during a
stages Of transition in the develop
ment of the art. His fathers music,
as well as that Of the contemporary
Handel, had definitely closed the era.
Hence, new paths had to be found.
They really were not discovered until
another genius, Haydn, perfected a
new form-that Of the symphony. 1t
is Karl Philipp Emanuel's great quality
to have brought the greater Bach
and Haydn together, to be the trait
d'union between these two geniuses
and to have definitely opened up the
way for not only Haydn, but all the
later symphonists, including Mozart
and Beethoven as well.
Although most of his works have
inherent good taste (Which in the last
analysis is an external quality rather
than depth, force and originality,
some Of his works achieve all Of these
to a large degree, and the symphony
No. 8" is an example Of this-his best
work with an especially fine and
impressive slow movement which
might be by the great Johann Sebas-
tian himself.

a constant high level OF inspiration

The piano concerto Of today for two
pianos is a rarely played piece, which
probably has its first performance in
Washington.

talked-of Cosmopolitan Opera Asso-
citation of New York, Max Rabinoff,
director, will come to Constitution
Hall for a performance of Verdi's
la Traviata" January % has aroused
wide interest in musical circles. The
unique venture of putting opera at
the Hippodrome at low admission
price under the artistic surity which
the name of Mr.. Rabinoff guarantees,
has become operatic history and the
phenomenal success of the season
showed that opera produced in the
right manner and at price open to
every one is what the American musi-
cal world has been waiting for.
To give opera properly, without
enormous expenditure OF money re-
quires vision and artistic honesty.
Too often the glowing announcements
of an operatic season have caused us
the painful experience of assisting at
badly staged and careleSSly performed
operas with the additional unpleasant
ness of being made conscious of the
questionable financial methods of the
producers. The fine art of opera has
been desicrated by such performances
and the public made wary Of spend
Ing even the low admission price which
has been alluringly advertised, to
see inferior vocal, dramatic and
scenic art under the name of opera.
When the Cosmopolitan Opera As
sociation was formed last Fall in
New York this same situation had to
be met and combated. Only man
Of both business and artistic expert
ence and of high ideals could have
attacked the difficulty and won sue
cess. Max Rabinoff brought into the
adventure the definite knowledge
which came through years Of practical
experience as organizer of the Chicago
Grand Opera Co., managing director
Of the National Opera House in Mexico
City, director Of the Boston Opera
Co., manager of Pavlowa and Mord-
kin, of Andreyeff'S Balalaika Orchestra
and the Ukrainian National Chorus.
The story of the formation of the
association is an inspiring one. His
general plan was to create a non-prCflt
civic organizations to give grand opera
at the lowest entrance figure possible,
the company one day to become mu-
nicipally controlled. To bring his idea
to the attention of the proper people,
he sponsored three concerts in Madi-
son Square Garden, inviting leaders
in musical, educational and welfare
circles to be present. After the eve
ning'S entertainment he diyulged his
plan for an opera for the people and
sustained by the people, without gov
ernmental or civic subsidy. He asked
the help Of those present, offering his
time, experience and income as per-
sonal contribution. There were 5000
of that audience who responded at
once with a donation Of 81 each as a
subscription, and thus the Cosmopol-
itan Opera Association was formed
with an immediate membership Of
5000 enthusiasts.
With this small beginning, Mr.
Rabinof started in to construct COM
pany after his ideal. He engaged
artists of repute, gathered members OF
the Metropolitan Opera Chorus and
Orchestra together and engaged Alex
ander Yakovleff as ballet master. DR..
Ernst Lert, the authority on modern
stagecraft of La Scala, in Milan, was
given leave of absence from that opera
house to become director Of the mise

THE SOCIAL. ORDER

Primitive human in the beginning
went forth each, day. with his stone
Ak or bow and arrow to find the
necessary sustenance for himself
and those nearest to him. He. was
compelled by the iron forces. of cir

into the family, then into the tribe
ard nation, il order. to. survive.
Those who did not or could not so
organize were, sure to perish and
appear from the face of the earth
Just as. life developed from the uni

-orces arrayed against them in tbs
in the struggle for life. ):
Organizations of all kinds and all
weapons used by man in the written
and unwritten history have been the
product of hunan ingenuity matched
against the blind forces of nature.
Without them, man, had he survived
at all, would have remained a glib
bering antropoid' in, the virgin for

ability Of man to organize, to use

from the article that there is some
uncertainty as to who issued the or.

cause every red-blooded citizen to
rise up in open revolt both colored
