Danish Orchestra, Swedish Singer Appear
With Music by GHee and Nielsen
By Alice Eversmon

The Scandinavian countries
come into the spotlight in this
weeks musical programs. The
visit to the United States of the
Danish National Orchestra OF
the State Radio, and its con-
cert in Constitutional Hall to-
night, gives the first opportuni-
ty to hear in a more complete
manner the music and musi-
cianShip of Denmark's artists.
This afternoon. the Swedish
court singer. Helga Gorlin, is
the SoloiSt with the National
Symphony Orchestra at the
dedication ceremonies of the
Fountain of Faith" in National
Memorial Park. Finland will be
represented by the performance
of Sibelius' stirring "Finlandia.
Also at this time, arrives the
announcement of an Interna-
tional Festival of Music to be
held in Bergen, Norway, next
June l to Is. The festival will
be in memory of Norway's
great composer, Edward Grieg.
whose symphonic Dances" will
be played tonight by the Danish
visitors. The inclusion of a
Grieg work in the program is
a fine gesture for it was with
Denmark'S revered composer
conductor, Niels Gade, that
Grieg studied several years.
Bergen is Grieg's birth place
and he died in his country home
near there SIS years ago. The
''Harmonien" Orchestra of which
he was long the conductor, will
be featured in next summers
festival together with the Oslo
Philharmonic.
Play to Be Revived
During the festival there will
be revival of the play "Masca-
rade" by the 18th century play
wright Ludwig Holberg, known
as the Nordic Moliere. The text
of this work was used by the
Danish composer, Carl Nielsen,
whose Symphony No. 4" will
be played tonight. His opera
by that name is one of the
favorite works of the Danish
opera repertoire.
Interest in and knowledge of
Scandinavian music is being
furthered by the rather recent
establishment of a Scandina-
Wan Music Center of scores,
records and literature by
the American Scandinavian
Foundation of New York. One
of its first projects was to grant
a fellowship to Erik Tuxen to
come to the United States to
observe methods of conducting
and to fill engagements as guest
conductor.
Tonight he will share the
conducting honors of the Dam
ish National Orchestra with
Thomas Jensen. who carries on
the Carl Nielsen heritage as his
protege. Mr.. Jensen started his
musical life as an organist and
cellist. turning to conducting
when he came under Nielsen's
influence. Mr.. Tuxen who made
his local debut as guest con-
ductor of the National Sym
phony in January, 1851, was

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Before this column goes into the
deep end of things, all members
that have stated they would be
available for play on Saturday at
the the Key West Golf Club have
been asked by Joe Lopez, club pro,
to be at the clubhouse no later
than 1890. The scheduled matches
will begin at 100.
Now that Wicker's Stadium has
once again been returned to the
youth of Key West, the Quarter
backs Club has begun the laying
of the much needed sod. Through
the gracious generosity of the pe0-
pie, the football team of the Key
West High School viii be able to
play on a decent field without re-
ceiving an injury from the coral
and what have you that made up
the so called playing surface.
The bleachers win also be erect
ed sometime next week and the
only thing that stands In the way
of the field being ready for play on
September 18th, is the grass taking
hold.
Many business concerns and in
dividuals dug deep to put this pre-
cious green turf on the city's pro-
perry for the boys and after the
season is over it has been promised
by the Mayor and other city Of
ficials that the sod would be trans
planted onto the practice field, next
to the Poinciana School which the
Quarterback Club received from
the city earlier this year.
Speaking of the Quarterback Club
how many of you that are mem
bers have attended q meeting since
its origin. It makes one feel that
the organizing of club to foster
and better the sport Of football In
this city was done In vain. At the
present time there are so active
members, at least their cards state
they are, and score or so of as
Sociate members.
With a membership as large as
this, then more than just ten to
twelve should be able to attend the
one meeting a month.
If we are to lead the way and
show the football team that we are
behind them, then we must get
together and form a strong organi-
zation for that purpose.
The meeting, which is held once
month on Monday evening, will
be held this month at the High
September Is. This is supposed to
be a Kickoff dinner for the foot
ball team and according to the
latest word, members of the team
and the coaching staff win be on
hand to give the members a gen.
eral idea of what to expect this
year.
Be good member and attend
all the meetings.
