News of Music

Among the things to be CRATE
full for, as the year draws to a
close, is the practical attitude
developing toward music. It is
gradually being recognized as a
business as we'll as an art and
rarely are artists asked to per-
form for nothing. At the same
time. good music is being made
available more and more to the
public without charge. That
these two opposites are possible
shows the extent to which the
understanding of music, as an
aid to a better and fuller life,
has grown:
This city is fortunate in its
many opportunities each week
to hear concert programs with
out paying for them. While the
public is benefiting by this
generosity. the artists do not
suffer. Those giving their
talents for free concerts are
being paid in an adequate man
ner: Furthermore, their ap-
pearances are recognized as
major events with all the bene-
fit OF publicity and of reviews
such as are given those per-
forming in Constitution Hall.
The armed services bands are
paid by the Government and
have become an important part
of local musical life.
Appearances in the National
Gallery of Art. the Phillips GAL
lery and the Library of Con-
gress are eagerly sought by out
of town artists. The two gal
leries provide occasion for
young musicians to be heard
who have already won recogni-
ton in other cities. Although
the Library of Congress is much
coveted by all types of artists,
the choice is in the hands of
two foundations. Through the
liberality of Gertrude Clarke
Whittall and Elizabeth Sprague
Coolidge. the concerts given in
the Coolidge auditorium have
brought the finest artists, the
newest and the best in the
chamber music field. for the
continual enjoyment of the
public without charge. But the
musicians performing in these
three places are paid.
Old Practices Fode E
The habit Of paying to have
music performed is growing
more universal. It was not so
long ago that the bait of
publicity and the tantalizing
hope of some good engagement
resulting from such an ap-
pearance was sufficient to lure
the younger musicians espe-
cially, to give their talent free.
Now. with many organizations
offering money awards or con-
cert appearances to gifted per-
formers of each musical branch,
and concert managers cooper
ating to find paying engage
ments for them, the old practice
Is falling into discuse.
Concert going, as a rule. is
expensive. But with the free
programs of highest caliber
available. no one has an excuse
for not being acquainted with
music. A first visit may be
made simply out of curiosity, but
nearly always it leads to regu-

NEW YORK.
From Broadway to Miami and
from New Orleans to Hollywood,
night club and hotel impresarios
are arranging their floor shows
and icing their champagne
buckets for the annual carnival
Of New Years eve celebrations.
Indications are that prices
will range from "open house."
which means customers pay
only for what is on their check,
up to $27.50 minimum per per-
son. The minimum prices for
reservation, dinner and favors
start at SO. In most OF the
clubs and hotel rooms, the
minimums are about the same
charged in the last two years.
On New Years eve, entertain
ment in many clubs and supper
rooms usually runs on standard
program lines, but the maestros
are always hoping for the un-
expected guests and celebrities
who add impromptu bits to the
scheduled entertainment.
Tastes Chonge
For instance, Gigi, long time
headwaiter at the Rendezvous
in New York's Hotel Plaza. re-
calls one New Years eve cele-
bration in that room early in
the century when Enrico Ca
russo arrived at midnight. This
room, which will have a $40
minimum check per person this
year, was a gay place then as
now.
Every one drank champagne
on New Years eve then" Gig
recalled. To-day they drink
mostly highballs or cocktails.
We sold 5000 quarts Of cham
payne on New Years eve in
1907.
"On this particular night
Caruso arrived from the opera
just as every one was about to
raise his glass of champagne
and toast the new year. Natu-
rally every one present raised
a voice in joyous singing.
But within a few minutes
every one in the room was abso-
lutely quiet, listening to Caruso.
He continued singing song after
song until well into the morn
ing hours of the new year. And
he insisted on paying his check
when he departed"
Free Champagne
AS an innovation at the Hotel
Waldorf-Astoria this year, a
bottle of French vintage cham
payne will be given to each
table of four. The prices per
person will range from $40 per
person in the Empire Room to
SIS per person in the Peacock
Lounge. Music will be in all
rooms, but the Empire Room
will provide a holiday program
including Jose Greco and his
Spanish dance company, along
with the orchestras Of Alex
Alstone and Mischa Borr. The
two orchestras will be silent at
midnight, when chimes viii be
sounded.

Free Music, Paid Artists
Develop Full Appreciotion

lar attendance. Pleasant reac-
tons at the beginning soon take
on a more critical aspect and
in no time at all, opinions are
being formed and the germ of
music appreciation is beginning
to sprout. Without the free
concerts this might never hap
pen. The informality of these
affairs against the more formal
atmosphere of a large hall and
paid admissions has an appeal.
All of this gratis education in
music can be supplemented by
the fine programs on radio and
by recordings. While assem-
bling a library of recordings
requires quite a financial out
lay, they can be used repeated
ly. Books explaining the music
and guiding the listener to
judge its best points are to be
had from the libraries, which
now have notable music de-
partmentS. It is not difficult for
any one so desiring to educate
himself in the art from pa
irons standpoint. Those who
have worked SO hard to bring
this about. and have recognized
the dignity of an artist by
paying him a fee, had in mind
the greater dissemination of
music and the stimulus to
listen.
Problems in Acoustics
How one listens Is an individ-
ual affair. Some listen through
mental concentration. others
let music speak to the heart.
Both are commendable although
the latter brings the best re-
ward. Unfortunately. music is
often distorted by the acous-
tics in hall, and by the me-
chanical adjustments in radio
and recordings. Where one sits
in a hall may affect the impress
sion. Even in Constitution Hall,
one effect is gained close by the
stage, another at the rear of the
hall. and still another in the
balcony What may sound very
fine a few feet away from an
artist or orchestra, does not
register that way in the dis
lance. The brilliant acoustics
of the National Gallery some
times emphasizes defects and
the more intimate character of
the Phillips Gallery may be more
f1attering than a larger audi
forum. Even the nearly-perfect
Coolidge auditorium has it's
problems.
The concentrated sound that
goes into recordings and the
manipulated volume on the
radio often create impressions
quite different from those heard
by a listener in a concert hall.
These variants. however, do not
affect the music itself but more
the idea OF an artists perform
ance. Music can stand a great
deal of mistreatment. Its value,
its message, and its spirit are
not affected or changed. And
because its power is so far
reaching and potent, 1t is being
given freely to the public. Like
business. it brings monetary re-
ward to those who devote their
life to its study. and like all art,
1t is there for the betterment
and the sustenance as well as
the enjoyment of every person.

q critical Senate vote this week.
Only one thing about the out
come is sure. Both sides pre-
dict one of the closest votes in
Senate history.
The issue at stake is getting

like Louisiana, Texas and Cali

rich oil deposits beneath their
coastal waters. The Federal
Government is fighting. to re-
tain control of these submerged

the United States Golf Associa-

cided to bypass that paradox
entirely and did so by coming to
the main point:
The Combination
Are the things one hears
about this new turf true?"
Anything you have heard
about The Combination" said
DR., Grau, "is understatement.
We haven't named it yet
that's why we call it The Com

They can't believe it. You may

Committee of the American

that The Combination has the

80. The Senate vote on the first
go-round was 50-35. short of the
two-thirds majority necessary
to override a presidential veto.
If the Senate does override
the veto. House approval seems
certain in view of the over
whelming vote there when the
bill was passed originally.
Try. Try Again
On the other hand, If the
Senate fails to carry through on
the marginal sea issue this time,
it's safe to assume that an
other measure will be brought
up soon. Proponents of the
legislation are untiring. They
are, determined to beat at the
door until it opens or falls apart.
"Well push this thing until
1860, or longer. until we get it
through" one Of the hackers of
the program has said.
Sympathizers with the Fed
eral side in the case are still
betting, however, that even if
a measure gets through Con-
gress, the Supreme Court will
find it unconstitutional.
