Although he has returned repeatedly
to the folklore of his birthplace,
Aix-en-Provenoe, and its picturesque
surroundings for inspiration in his
writings, he has submitted to many
influences such as that he expert
enced during his sojourn in Brazil,
where he accompanied Ambassador
Claudel as attache of the French
Legation. American jazz, the cine
ma and the ballet have interested
him as thoroughly as chamber mu-
sic, the symphony and the opera.
His compositions. since the day he
led the revolt against impression
ISM have developed an original
form of expression. He remains,
however, a composer of challenge
with wit, emotion, seriousness and
originality interrningled.
Saturday night the second of the
1880" series will have as soloist
the talented young violinist. Pa
tricia Travers, who created such a
deep impression when she played
with the Symphony at the Water

Norway and Edward Grieg

Today is the anniversary Of the birth OF
edward Grieg, Norwegian composer Born
in 1843 he is not too far removed from
the world of today. With the celebration
of the centennial in his honor there is felt
at the present time an added feeling
for Norway which has stood staunch and
firm under existing conditions which
started when the Nazis took over some
time ago.
Norway to most of us spells firmness,
solidity, severe grandeur. The people and
the natural aspects of the country are
akin. This spirit of Norway was described
in the music of Edward Grieg, who trans
lated into music the poetry and folklore
of his country. From Grieg we have
received those precious folk-tunes Of the
North, their characteristics having a
decided individuality.
Grieg left his own country to study
music in Germany, and when he came
back he taught music and was likewise
an orchestral conductor But it was IN
him to create SO his government arranged
it so that his artistic career was assured
as a composer and concert performer.
This week and year the world is observ-
ing the centenary of his birth, even his
home country, Norway. where Nazi antlp-
athy for Grieg and the Grieg pattern is
indicated.
Edward Grieg is dead only thirty-siX
years so is remembered by those fortu-
nate enough to have moved in musical
circles in Europe early at the start of the
twentieth century. Today Norway and
such individuals as Grieg command our
attention He was part of the country
such as it is today, and such as he, de-
scribed in strong "nationalistic coloring."
The literature Of music has been sub
stantially added by his exquisite songs
possessed of lyrical feeling. His music
is both picturesque and moving, as in
the musical setting for Ibsen's peer
Gynt" or the we'll known fragment, "Jeg
Elsker Dig" Il Love You) This week
will find many noted musicians giving
their attention to Norway through the
music of its Edward Grieg

spreading the pleasure driving ban TO
Ohio, then to the Carolinas, and perhaps
to Indiana, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska and the Da-
kotaS - is due in part to the fact that
when OPAdministrator Brown tried the
honor system, he found too little honor.
Mr. Brown has been criticized severely
and Justly for his unrealistic attempts to
please everybody, particularly the poll
ticians Now he discovers what his pre-
decessor, Leon Henderson, knew: that
total war is a very unpleasant business,
which requires sacrifices; that while the
majority will respond to appeals, large
minority is selfish and self-centered, and
has to be whipped into line. In limited
way, Mr.. Brown has been forced to get
tough. He deserves support from good
citizens, not snide criticism.
