JAROFF LAPSES
NTO'STARTLING'
CHORAL MUSIC
Conductor Urged to Try
Stunts in Private
Bv WILLIAM NEWMAN

Any conductor commanding a
virtuosc ensemble is tempted con-
stantly to step outside the ntera-
tlIre that belongs to it. With in
creasing frequency, Serge Jarott:.
midget maestro of the group OF
vocal giants who call themselves
the Cossack Male Chorus. yieIdS
to the desire to make his choir 90
startling things with instrumental
music.
This seems to be Slavic weak
ness. Stokowski plays more tran
scriptions than legitimate sym
nhonic music. KoussevitZky has
had occasional 1apseS, which 6oS-
ton is quick to condone.
ORCHESTRA FARES BETTER
Generally, the orchestra fares
better in this transference from
one idiom to another than does
the chorus. When voices initiate
instruments, the performance has
a flavor of vaudeville. Like the
dog walking on his hind legs, 1t IS
not that it is well done, but that
it is done at all. So it was, yes
terday. at Constitution Hall, when
the Cossacks offered their choral
version of the slow movement
from TschaikoWsky's Fifth Sym
phony.
If Conductor Jaroff wants to
amuse himself with this and SINH
lar stunts, he should do it in
private and should continue TO
give the American public examples
of the choral masterpieces drawn
from the liturgy of the Russian
church, or from the folkSongS OF
that country. This is songs that
belongs especially to the Cossacks,
and that they can do better than
any choir.
ALL COM. 'OSEkS AID
The development of this interest
ing and highly characteristic
sacred choral music has been stim-
ulated by the fact that in Russian
churches there is no organ. A
vast literature designed to express
the varied moods of worship has
grown up and little of it has found
its way to other lads. All the
great Russian composers contrib
uted to it. Yesterdays program
contained the names of Rach-
maninoff and Tschaikowsky in its
divisions concerned purely with
choral art. The CosSacks wrought
their wonted magic with this
music. They could well have been
satisfied to rest their plea with it
alone.
