Hail Concert
In Kansas CITY
Discrimination
Is Protested By
Noted Baritone

KANSAS CITY, Mo- (ANP) -
The second half of Paul Robeson's
concert at the Municipal auditori-
um here last Tuesday evening was
prefaced with a lecture against seq
regation, after which q hundred OF
more white listeners Immediately
left the auditorium.
The first part of the noted bari
tones song recital progressed with
the utmost harmony and good
humor. He opened the second half
and expressed the regret that he
had to interrupt the concert with
q speech.
But" he continued, q. II have
made it q lifelong habit to refuse
to sing in southern states anywhere
that audiences are segregated. / ac-
cepted this engagement under
guarantee that there would be no
segregation. Since many local lead
ers of my own race have urged me
to fill this engagement, I shall fin
ish the concert, but am doing SO
under protest.
Then the artist proceeded with a
group of Russian songs, sung with
his usual art and vigor, but notice.
ably under the inner stress. He fol-
lowed this group with an encore,
the Jim Grow" song, the verses of
unmistakable racial protest, and he
sang it with stronger feeling than
he had put into any other numbers.
At this point, few whites in
the audience rose and left the hall.
There was no spontaneous exist, but
white listeners trickled out the exits
during the remainder of the con-
cert.
With his return Is minutes later
for his final group of spirituals, his
usual hunor apparently prevailed
and the tension was greatly relaxed.
Those who had remained in the
audience applauded the Spirituals
vigorously and he closed the concert
with his famous rendition of "Ol'
Man River" The audience lett
quietly and at his dressing room
door were more than a hundred
persons seeking autographs.
According to Eugene Xachman,
manager of the auditorium, when
the concert was contracted for, no
agreement was entered into that
prohibited segregation. Seats were
available for Negroes in all price
rangs and locations, he added, and
said he considered it strange that
Robson made no protest until the
concert was half over.
Robson stated, II will still cancel
engagements when I encounter ra-
cial prejudices and segregations, but

pie are unemployed and in distress,
is no time for me to be cancelling

Music Department
Appears In Benefit

NASHVILLE, Tenn.-(A N P)-
The music department of Tennes-
see A. and I. college, under the di-
rection of Mrs. Brooks-Strange,
reproduced for the benefit of the
Blue Triangle YwCA Thursday,
the musical production ''Opera VS..
Jazz'' before cne of the largest au-
dience ever witnessed at the col
1ege.
Funds realized from the prcduc-
ton are to be used to meet past
obligations and to promote fur
ther plans. Scenery, stage lighting
effects, and costumes made the af-
fair unusually spectacular.
The program which characteriz-
ed both extremes in music featured
the gay songs of the 90's and re-
cent popular numbers along with
the more sophisticated opera num-
bers including II Trovatore and
Aida from Verdi and Bizet's Gar
men.
The Phoenix index., 1942-02-28

According to Miss Cheryl Craw-
ford, white, producer OF the 1912
revival, there are several reasons
why the second production is better
than the first. They were educa-
tional, Skilful, trimming, and SOUND
business administration. Radio is
given the credit for educating the
public to the merits of the stage
play.
For six years." Miss Crawford
said, "the radio has played this
music-'Summer Time 1T Amt
Necessarily So I Got Plenty o
Nuttin' and all the rest. America
has learned to love these songs. II
is my belief that when the opera
was new these tunes were SO en-
bedded in the whole that they didn't
stand out so strikingly at once. !
believe that when you hear q really
it is when you've heard 1t 20 or 80
times"
On the economic side, she pointed
out that although the original
Theatre Guilds production was not
exactly flop-running 124 perform
ances and averaging about $22, 600
week-it was nevertheless too ex-
pensive to maintain. Long rehear-
sails, costing about $65,000 before it
opened, and the $4,000 weekly op-
Grating expenses made it financial
future pretty helpless. On the other
hand, her production was put to-
gether at a much lower investment.
Operating costs were scaled so that
the venture would break even at
$4,000.
To do this, she took on smaller
chorus than the original and also
hired 27-piece orchestra in the
place of the a. piece band that
worked with the original opera.
Don't ask me how long I think
it will run because I can't tell-I've
never had q smash hit before she
said.
For a week, preparation for the
play was made in secret at the
Maplewood theatre. The rehearsal
cost amounted to $14,5Oo but it was
a success and paved the way to
New York and further glory.
According to Bess-Miss Brown
the reason for the success of the
new venture is because "for six
years all of the principals and all
of the cast have been growing
artistically. We've been studying
and MISUNDERSTANDING as people
and artists. And I can truthfully
say it has been labor of love for
all the people in it--I know I've
never had a part loved like Bess."
