p
ure responsible for the beginning of
this great country, should be the
ones to give out the first opera on
that theme to be heard In this land
While American composers, after
passing the stage where their prin-
cipal inspiration drew its source
from nature, were busy patterning
their works on the line made famous
by the great European composers,
some of these latter have turned to
the new world for the dramatic ma
terial that makes for good music
drama.
While Columbus, of course, can
not be considered to belong exclu-
sively to America, he should have
been able, however, to awaken a
vivid interest in those who have
benefited by his audacious courage.
The archduke, grandson of Emperor
Franz Joseph, has made lifelong
study OF Columbus. He has library
consisting of more than 500 books
dealing with his life and has him.
self written books and articles about
him.
Epic Finale.
Not only was the archduke able
to influence zador to write an opera
on the subject of Columbus, but he
has made him see the spiritual sig
niflcance of the discovery of Amer
lea, significance that grows in i'm
portance in these troubled times.
Thoroughly enthused, Mr.. Zador
centered the four scenes of the opera
entirely around that first notable
voyage of the Santa Maria, rising
to epic character in the finale,
where, by return to the early
church music form, he epitomizes
the tremendous spiritual and ply
sical development of this country.
Although modernistic style DOM
mates the work, the composer has
used old Spanish and Portuguese
rhythms from time to time for more
atmospheric effect. Written ORR
ginally in Hungarian, the English
version by Josepha Chekova will be
used in the broadcast.
One is tempted to ask, "Why has
no American composer visualized the
life of Golumbus as an opera sub
ject?" Alberto Franchetti and Da-
rius Milhaud have each written
an opera about the discoverer of
America, and there are nine other
works from the pens of Italian COM
posers of century or more ago. Yet
Christopher Columbus, both in his
personality and life history, has
plenty of material to weave into a
thrilling musical drama.
What more could one wish than
the events which caused his rise
from humble Genovese to the rank
of grandee of Spain, his persist
ence in perfecting his ideas and
their carrying out, the tremendous
emotional moment of the sighting of
the long-sought land, the rise and
