Latin Tour
To Be Made
By yOrchestra

In connection with the coming
concert tour of the all-American
Youth Orchestra, scheduled to ap-
pear in Washington Tuesday, July
%. Leopold Stokowski has received
and accepted an invitation from
Mayor Thomas D. Taggart, jr., Of
Atlantic City, to use the famous
seaside resort for rehearsals. The
newly formed organization expects
to embark on the S. S. Uruguay on
July % for a goodwill tour of Latin
America.
According to Mr.. Stokowski, At
lantic City will serve as rehearsal
camp" with work and play alternat-
ing, for the hundred young musi-
clans from all parts of the country
he has recruited with the aid of the
National Youth Administration.
Summons have gone out to them to
report in Atlantic City today for a
two-week session there. At the close
of this short term a public concert
will probably be arranged under the
auspices of a local committee of
prominent minded people
whom Mayor Taggart is enlisting.
Rehearsals will be held in the ball
room of the Atlantic City Audito-
rum.
In line with earlier forecasts of
the project, Mr.. Stokowski is in

of the Philadelphia Orchestra in
the ranks Of the all-American Youth
Orchestra, according to an an
nouncement yesterday by Michael
Myerberg, its manager. These out
standing members Of the Phila-
delphia Orchestra will not only play
the instruments. for which they
have become celebrated, but they
will also serve as section leaders and
assistants to the conductor. They
have been selected to embody Mr..
Stokowski's idea Of a School of
Orchestral Culture" with its prac-
tical postgraduate course in ad-
vanced study of musicianship and
expression. The Philadelphia Or
chestra veteran players will give
helpful suggestions during rehear-
sails and act as advisers throughout
the tour.

Sargent. as a rule, painted In water
colors rather than oils because Of
greater convenience, and he was, 1t
should be remembered, one Of the
first to evidence the full potential
tiles of this medium. without Sar-
gent, and without Winslow Homer,
both Americans, the present-day
virile school of water-color painting
would, in all probability, not exist.
It was comparatively early in his
career that Sargent took up water
color painting, and some OF his best
work was done in Venice. But, also,
he painted with enthusiasm in later
years in this country, on his periodic
visits to the home Of his ancestors,
New England, and on adventurous
trips to the Rocky Mountains Some
very charming water colors were
painted by Sargent on Iron Bound
Island, off Bar Harbor, while a guest
Of his friend, the islands owner,
Dwight Blaney, himself a painter Of
considerable skill. Painting once in
a shipyard at, or near, Newburyport,
Mass, Sargent is said. after fruitless
effort. to have cast his paints aside
with the exasperated statement that
he could not paint-it was all too
difficult and he too poor at the job.
This does not sound like the ex-
preston of one spoiled by praise and
admiration.
Sargent was born in Florence in
1856 Of American parents. His father
belonged to the Sargent family Of
New England, which has given to our
country many distinguished sons.
He grew up in home dominated by
New England ideals and in an at
mosphere Of intellectually. There
were three children, two girls and
the one boy, and the family relation
ships were very close and happy.
The son was talented in both music
and art. and probably would have
made name for himself had he
pursued the former professionally as
he did the latter. Both Loeff1er and
Percy Granger played with him
upon various occasions and have
testified to his understanding and
genius in this field. Granger said
OF him that he had one Of the rarest
OF all esthetic gifts-individuali
balanced. critical Judgment - and
that to hear him play was indeed q
treat.
Disliked Crowds.
Sargent was also q great reader,
and in his home in London were
many fine books. With his friends
he talked freely and happily, but he
disliked functions and crowds. In
1885, after his student and begin
ming years in Paris, he settled in
London and that summer, going on
a boating expedition with Edwin A..
Abbey, he made the acquaintance of
Broadway, where a little group Of
American artists had established
homes. Among these was Frank D.
Millet, painter both of easel pictures
and murals, in whose garden Sar-
gents well-known picture "Carna-
tion Lily; Lily Rose" was painted.
BY interesting coincidence, paint
ing by Millet of a lady (probably
Mrs. Millet) seated with her back to
a window, sewing, has just been lent
to the Corcoran Gallery by Fleming
Newbold. This, too, was painted at
Broadway.
The days for which this picture
stands were happy ones, not only for

The album includes THE Cherry

THE Two Sisters" Barbara Allen"
and Lady Gay" Mr.. Summers is
mountaineer, born in Virginia, who
was taught by an old native Of the
mountains. He brings sweet voice
and a dignif1ed simplicity to his
musical variations.
An interesting single disc released
by Columbia is that recorded by the
Societe des Instruments Anciens, the
members of which play upon the
viole d'amour, quinton, viole de
gambia, basse de Wole and clavecin.
The group presents Casadesus' Lies
Jardin des Amours," the composer,
who is also the founder of the So
ciete, playing the viole d'amour.
Written in lighter vein, the four
divisions of the work do not follow
the classical pattern but rather the
genre Of salon pieces of the period
when these instruments were popu-
lar. Those who are not familiar
with the potentialities of an old in
strument ensemble should not miss
this opportunity to hear an excel
lent performance by specialists in
this line.
Other releases somewhat out Of
the ordinary are Haydn's "Andante
con Variazioni in F Minor" for piano,
played by Ernest Victor Wolff, and
Weber's "Concertino, op. 26" for
clarinet and orchestra, presented by
Reginald Kell, clarinetist, with a
symphony orchestra directed by
Walter Goehr. DR.. Wolff adds the
Haydn number to a considerable list
Of recordings that have brought him
fame. While not difficult, this
charming music is exacting and DR..
Wolff plays it with flnesse. The sus-
tanned and brilliant passages of the
clarinet selection are mastered BY
Mr.. Kell in expert fashion and the
whole work is refreshing and un-

unwilling to give UP his American
citizenship. But England still claims
him as of the British school and
some of his finest works are to be
found in the Tate Gallery. London.
The Corcoran Gallery may we'll take
pride in the fact that during Sar-
gents lifetime some of his most
notable paintings were first shown
in its biennial exhibitions. What
ever may be the present fashion, it
is safe to assume that because of its
soundness and sincerity, as well as
brilliance, and that for which it
stands, the work of Sargent will en-
dure, witnessing to his genius.
