and Hebraic themes, which was per-
formed this season.
IN DIR. McDONALD'S wo-piano con-
certo there are three movements
with several departures from the con-
ventional design for compositions Of
this character. The last movement Is
particularly novel in that it Is Juar-
ezca, Hispanic- American in style, in
which devices used in many concert
bands are utilized. The opening move
ment has broad, melodic line over
estimate pattern in 'cellos. basses and
bassoons. 1t closes with long cadenza
followed by sweeping double glissando
in both pianos.
The middle movement has variations
on an original theme, largo-expressivo,
in three-tWo time. The Juarezca is .
dance of North Mexico, popular for
half century along the border.
Mcdonald was born on his fathers
cattle ranch in the Rockies above
Boulder, Colo, and grew up in South

the Nations musical circle. The
broadcasters and advertisers Of the
country are sensitive to this ever
enlarging interest and, I think 1t Is
safe to say, will respond by giving an
increasing amount Of thought and
time to this category of entertainment.
Hearing great music regularly fos-
ters musical curiosity. In place
where there are only q few concerts
year one must be content with
familiar things. AS music is heard
more regularly, greater variety is
demanded. This means that more
neglected music will get on the air.
It also means that new music will
have better chance. 1t is surprising
how many first performances today
are also radio performances. The
listeners are not asking themselves,
is this modern piece?'-but Is this
good piece?'"
At THE same moment comes a
general survey of the music
played on the General Motors Hour
since September 13, 1896. 1t states
that 80 per cent Of the music used
during the season was selected from
the works of the following 20 COM
posers: Bach, Beethoven, Brahms,
Wagner, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Cho-
pin, Rubinstein, Tschaikovsky, Saint
Saens, Rimsky-Korsakoff, Massepet,
Verdi, Rossini, Liszt, Debussy, Ravel,
Puccini and Bizet.
In addition many seldom heard
works were mentioned, such as ex-
cerpts from Kodalys Harry Janos," ,"
Koschat's French horn quartet,
Songs from Styria." Reznicek's over
ture to Donna DIANA" Shostako-
vitch's The Bolt" Boughton's The
Immortal Hour" several of Stra-
vinsky's compositions and outstand-
ing works by Deems Taylor, De Faua
and others. These programs have
had the greatest artists of the world
as guests, being heard by countless
thousands who could never attend a
solo recital nor perhaps pay the price
of admission to one.
The more the general public hears
the inner music the more 1t Will learn
to like it and be dissatisfied with
anything else. The consequences OF
such an education are far-reaching,
deciding the music study of the COM
ing generation and the future OF
every local music organization as
well. The broadcasting stations are
| anxious to know the reactions of the
public to their programs, and mu-
sicians vitality interested in the pro-
gression of music appreciation can
materially assist by writing in their
| criticisms and suggestions.
If 100000 letters asking for the best
music came in every month, the radio
program committees would naturally
respect this demand and try to meet
It, Growth will never be attained
unless musicians are active and
watchful, and, since the radio can
cooperate so decisively in helping
them reach the high standard which
is desired in the musical world and
which will react to their individual
benefit, 1t behooves this group to as
