Decline of Violin Playing Ano|yzed
At Connecticut Three-Doy Festival
By Elena de Soyn

terest in the violin in and around
Hartford. He reported that the
number of violin students has
grown to over 800 from practically
nothing four years ago.
The Teaching Angles.
Teaching problems were dis
cussed by DR.. George Bornoff, DR..
Ernest E. Harris, both of Colum-
bia University Teachers College
and DR.. Samuel Spurbeck of the
State Teachers College, Potsdam,
N. Y. All three are connected
with the new American String
Teachers Association, of which.
DR.. Bornoff and DR.. Spurbeck are
founders. These experienced men
agreed that a combination of class
and private instruction brought
not only quick but eminently
satisfactory results.
DR.. Isadore Freed, chairman of
the Hartt School composition de-
partment, gave the heartening
word that ''the violin will continue
in its irreplacable position in the
present orchestra" and that its
ned in the music of the future was
as imperative as ever.
One of the highlights of the
concert events was the premiere
of DR.. Freed's interesting modern
istic concerto, based on an ancient
biblical cantilation. 1t was excel
lently performed by Bella Urban,
violin virtuoso, disciple of the late
Eugene Ysaye and originator and
executive chairman of the festival.
Another special feature was a
recital by Isaac Stern and pro-
gram by the New Music String
Quartet. Stern's concert on the
Aaron Richmond series in Bush
nell Auditorium was in part a
benefit for the violinist's scholar
ship fund at the school. He was
ably accompanied in Mendels-
sohn's concerto by the student
orchestra under Mr.. Segal's direc-
tion.
The Hartford meeting accom-
plished it's aim. 1t brought out
the serious need for more con-
more forums within the
profession, more opportunities for
violin teachers and violinistS to
exchange views and the necessity
of an unselflsh effort toward es-
tablishing a universal, scientific
ally correct basic approach TO the
instrument whether it is done in
class or privately.
The old-fashioned belief that
anything is good enough for a
beginner is the stigma which
marks an innocent victim for life.
Not until violin playing is intro
iuced to him as an art with the
irst lesson will we have qualified
yiolinists for our great SYM
ohony orchestras.

Erica Morini
Is SoIoist for
Wednesday Niqht

The National Symphony Or
chestra will have Erica Morini as
violin soloist Wednesday night at
$3.50 in Constitution Hall. The
famous violin-virtuosa will play
Bruch's popular Concerto in G
Minor" with the orchestra under
Howard Mitchell's direction.
Her musical education began at
the age of with her father, a
professor of music and head of
his own conservatory in her native
Vienna. OF the period preceding
her lessons this is what Miss Mo-
rini has to say:
my destiny was mapped out
for me before I was born. -. When
I was 3, I used to play with my
dolls in a corner of my fathers
studio and listen to his pupils.
If any one struck wrong note,
I would look up and frown." Her
acute hearing convinced her
father that time was ripe to start.
Although the little girl had more
interest in the piano, he decreed
that she should follow in his
footsteps and play the violin.
One day she was summoned to
the headquarters of the Austrian
general staff and placed behind
a screen to play for the Archduke
Karl, the last Emperor Of Austria.
Thinking that he was listening
to an adult. "one of the great in
Austria" the Archduke was
amazed to find only small child
before him. She still remembers
the beautiful doll he gave her as
a reward for playing.

violin in it's present form, made
presumably in 1850 by Andreas
Guarneri, was the occasion of 8
three-day festival in Hartford,
Conn, November 26 to 28. The
main objective of the festival
however, was to consider the Sc
rious shortage of good violinists
and the consequent threat to Or
chestra personnel which has been
decried by symphony conductors
all over the country for some
time. The event, aimed to stim-
ulate the waning interest in the
study of the violin, was spon-
sored by the Julius Hartt Musical
Foundation jointly with the
Hartford Times. 1t had the in
dorsement of celebrated artists,
musicologists and several re-
nowned conductors, headed by
Dimitri Mitropoulos,
Three afternoons and two eve
nings were taken up with discus
sions, concerts and two programs
of recordings by great violinists
of the past from the 100000 disc
collection of Harold G. Colt, jr.
An exhibit of priceless instru-
ments owned by Emil Hermann
and the Rudolf Wurlitzer firm
was on view. Seven Strads and
four Guarneris, some of which
belonged to Fritz Kreisler, were
among the % violins, besides the
bows and a Stradivari cello, the
collection being valued at half a
million dollars. Several fore
runners of the violin. loaned by
the Metropolitan Museum, in
charge of DR.. Emmanuel Winter
nitZ, were also exhibited and were
the subject of DR.. Winternitz S
talk.
80 Per Cent Decline Noted.
A panel of noted speakers
formed a symposium at which the
alarming situation as regards the
future of the violin was discussed.
One of the most startling state
ments was made by Quaintance
Eaton, associate editor of Musical
America, who said that an 80 per
cent decline in violin students was
found in the past score of years.
From an extensive poll of the
country's teachers, she felt that
the status of the violin had
reached new low. Only by in
teresting children in it's study
could the situation be rem
edied.
The need of an early beginning
to establish interest in the instru-
ment was stressed further by DR..
Sigmund Spaeth who advocated
more music making in the family
circle. In Illustration, he cited
his own home atmosphere where
each member had to learn some
string instrument in addition to
the violin. Moshe Paranov, direc-
tor of the Hartt School, in an
opening address said the lack of
thoroughly trained teachers was,
as much responsible for the short
age Of good violinists as anything
else and further remedy lay in
training string students to be all
around, f1rst-class string players.
They must be capable of playing
a dance job as well as in an Or
cheStra."
His idea was indorsed by Max
[. Farber, assistant managing edi-
tor of the Hartford Times who
said IF you are going to have a
renaissance Of fiddle music you
will have to get down from your
high horse" and suggested that
every means be adopted to bring
the violin to the fore in public
school teaching and in promoting
its study as an avocation by
adults. He offered the slogan:
Work. build for the great fra
ternity of f1ddlers. Go out and
sell" Rubin Segal, head of the
string and orchestra department
of the Hartt School, brought the
cheering news of an increased in

marked down. however, fresh buy

The rest of the market followed
a somewhat similar trend until
steel buying burst forth. Then
there was a recovery all the way
around. A number Of islands of
resistance, however. remained.
Aircrafts were higher in re-
sponse to announcements Of air

number of individual issues had
bursts Of activity as q result of
news developments.
General sentiment was helped
by the announcement of Leon
