II anything more were necessary
to bring home the sad and destruc-
tive nature of the present world
conflict, it would be the recent
recording by Columbia of Schu-
mann's Symphony No. 3 in E Flat
Major" known as the "Rhenish
Symphony" as played by the New
York Philharmonic, conducted by
Bruno Walter. Here is a paean of
praise of the old Germany, its genial
customs, its traditions and its beauty
of landscape and architecture. All
that is past and will soon be only
something learned in history books
by detached but unappreciative stu
dents of the future. But Schumann
has left picture in music by which
cold facts will be supplemented by a
deep and personal emotion of one
who saw with a poets eye and loved
with patriots fervor, the beauties
associated with his country's history.
Schumann loved the great river
Rhine and all the facts both his
torical and artistic connected with
1t. He took it as his subject and by
the force of his brilliant genius and
sincere feeling has raised a monu-
ment to its glories. He wrote the
symphony in one month and one
can sense the continued run of his
inspiration, the enthrallment of his
imagination. The work is majestic,
gay, tender and poetic in turn and
through it all is a thread of rich
feeling binding it together with rare
art. There is note of sadness pres
ent. perhaps born of the composer s
own nature, but deeply significant
in hearing nearly a hundred years
after its creation.
Mr.. Walter gives it a reading that
Is the evidence of a like combination
Of feeling and creative genius. An
excellent recording, it glows with
light and warmth, and to many in
the world today, with happy
memories.

neapolis Symphony with Dimitri
Mitropoulos directing. This is also
a Columbia recording. From a
purely musical standpoint the work
is we'll done, but Mr.. Mitropoulos
has missed its real flavor and the
orchestra seems unwieldly in the
delicate and more sentimental
moments.
In spite of that, the symphony
cannot be harmed and stands as
Tschaikowsky himself judged it, "the
best have yet made" It's manifold
variety, its drama and its national
coloring have a deathless appeal yet
requires a sympathetic interpreter
who can change as it changes in
sentiment and character and this
Mr. Mitropoulos has not been able
to do. 1t, too. to continue linking
of the present with the past speaks
of vanished things but because of
the temperament and background of
its composer, things of the heart
that once made nation unique in
its artistry.

records in Columbia's output is the

Sigurd Rascher, tomorrow nights
soloist, was born 80 years ago in
Berlin of a Swedish father and an
English mother. Fer several years
he played with Continental Jazz
bands, and during this period de-
veloped an amazing technique that
brought him to the attention Of
serious composers. For Rascher and
his instrument his admirers wrote
special works, and it is thanks to
this that the repertory for the
saxophone has been greatly en-
riched during the last 10 or IL years
Feeling that the saxophone could
and should be considered a concert
instrument, RaScher gave up his
jazz band connections. and for the
last IL years has played no hot
licks. He has, however. appeared
with more than 100 orchestras in

Popular Music
By J. ". Sfebp.

It Is no new thing for the Marine
Corps to receive tribute in song and
story. So with their most recent
venture, the occupation OF Iceland,
scarce could be the surprise at the
composition of new paean in their
honor. Herman Wouk's Ballad OF
the Leatherneck Corps" recalls past
glories of the marines, makes 1t clear
that the Leathernecks are still keyed
to handle all eventualities Of the
present day. Victor has recorded MI.
Wouk's ringing verse as originally
presented by Tyrone Power over
a recent radio show sponsored by
the Treasury Department. The IL
inch disc also features the marines
hymn, Halls of Montezuma, as
prologue and epilogue to the reading,
which combines for an altogether
spine -prickling performance. On the
other side, Barry Wood, also abetted
by AL Goodman's Orchestra and the
Ray Block Chorus, voices that rous-
ing march song for defense, Arms
for the Love of America" A notable
record for patriots.
OF the numerous Artie Shaw disc
masterpieces Victor has selected
some of the more masterful, pressed
new couplings and packed them into
its latest Album of the Week"
Mainly, it is Shaw in the vehement
swing mood-old and new-as the
titles indicate: Begin the Beguine," I"
"Frenesi." Back Bay Shufne," Star
Dust" Traffic JAM" Dancing in
the Dark" "Serenade to Savage"
and "Moonglow."
frankie Carle's first set of piano
solos for Columbia must have been
a success, an understandable success
If our faculty for remembrance Of
things past is reliable: In any event,
Mr.. earle returns with an album
Of "Carle Encores," a collection Of
established hits played with the
rhythmic sprightliness typical Of
Mr.. Carle. The solos (backed by
rhythm accompaniment: Some

fairly laden with personality:

styling of do It Again" Ella Fitz-
gerald offers q good reading OF the
new aria, 81 Got 1t Bad and That

he remained until his death in 1927.
An interesting book of his life and
works has lately been published by
the Speed Memorial Art Museum Of
Louisville. Some of his portraits
were reproduced by engraving on
the bank notes issued by Kentucky
banking firms. He was undoubtedly
one of those pioneers who helped to
break a way ior art into our Ameri-
can wilderness.
Meticulous Care.
With this galaxy of portraits there
Is shown one group picture, the
work of one John Lewis Krimmel,
who, born in Wurtemburg in 1887,
came to the United States In 1910
to join his brother in the mercantile
business in Philadelphia. 1t shows
his family and himself. This is a
comparatively small canvas, but
1t Is done with meticulous care Each
figure is neatly painted miniature.
Done long before photography was
invented, this picture is essentially
Photographic, but intensely sincere
and, for this reason. appealing. To
a painter such as Krimmel, there
was no such thing as slovenly crafts
manship. He made a speciality of
small portraits and a great success
of them. At one time he was presi-
dent of the Society Of American
Artists and a leader in matters artis-
tic. Unhappily. he was drowned In
Wissahickon Greek. near Philadel-
phia. in 1921. The Pennsylvania
Academy has one of his paintings in
its permanent collection.
In connection with such an ex-
hibition of early American art, there
are two things which are especially
we'll worth noting at this time. First,
that the painters went back to the
source of information and guidance
but thereby were not prevented
from exercising freely their own
personalities; second, that, to an
extent. they all considered their
work as, in measure. commercial
portrait painting was a business
and practiced as such, the painters
endeavoring to win renown by Civ
ing their patrons full value for that
received. Far from commercializing
the work. this seems to have stimu-
lated effort and desire to reach high
achievement. These men were not
idlers, and they were always trying
to improve their craft. 1t is, indeed,
remarkable thing, and one in which
we may take pride, that here, in this
wild new country, the seed Of art
sprang into life and, despite the
ruggedness Of the soil, flowered so
quickly and so abundantly.
