Common Sense Can Cure

tional or international charac-
ter be withheld unless all Of
the judges were fully qualified
to act in that capacity. 1t
would be up to. the Photo
graphic Society of America or
some other such national group
to act as arbiter in this event.
And now for a blow that
will undoubtedly bring forth
cries of rage from the parti-
sans. It is my studied opinion
that color photography, as it
now stands, tends to degrade
and drag down the level of
any Photographic salon. To
begin with, SO per cent Of all
color entries are not the work
of individuals. They merely
represent exposures made by
the entrant-the rest of the
work being handled by some
firm of color technicians.
Secondly, color photography
has long way to go before
the actual colors of the
original subject can be faith
fully interpreted and the
garish quality that is OBJ
tanned is neither true to life
nor worthwhile as a subSti-
tute. in my opinion.
And, as a clincher. the days
involved in color photography
are still so unstable as to cast
a very grave doubt as to the
eventual longevity of any
given transparency or print
and if the things aren't perma-
nent they should receive no
consideration at all as works
of art.
There is nothing wrong with
salon photography that can't
be cured with common sense
and reasonable thinking. It's
up to the artists behind the
camera to take up the cudgel
and do something about it.

45O Virginia Groups Urge
Separate School for Blind

Representatives of more than
$50 groups have indorsed imme-
diate construction of a separate
school for the blind at Char
lottesville. Va. according to Reu-
ben I. Altizer of Arlington, chair
man of a citizens committee
which is supporting the move.
Both the deaf and the blind
now are taught in one State
supported school at Staunton.
The 1924 General Assembly au-
thorized acquisition of a site for
a separate school for the blind
but no money has been appropri-
ated to erect buildings.
When the General Assembly
convenes in January, requests
will be made for $2.5 million for
the proposed separate school.
Mr.. Aldizer said no leading
educator of blind and deaf sup
ported a program which COM
bined both at the same institu-
ton, when the Governors Budget
Advisory Committee held hear
ings recently. Virginia, he said,
is one of three remaining States
with major schools attempting to
educate both at the same insti-
tuition.

Turntoble Talk

Considering the slight at
tention Edward MacDowell's
music claims in the concert
hall. it's quite an event to have
simultaneously two new rec
ordingS Of his D minor piano
concerto, plus one Of the even
more neglected A minor con-
certo to boot.
To some one hearing this
music for the first time the
composers identity is likely to
come as a surprise. One might
think it was Grieg, or some
other European. The fact is,
of course, that the creator of
ITO a Wild Rose" wrote both
concertos while living In Ger
many and was strongly infiu-
enced by the German romantic
composers. The music sounds
not at all American. But those
who have heard the D minor
know it Is highly ingratiating.
and the companion work is
also enjoyable, although not
quite as interesting melodi-
cally.
A young American pianist,
Vivian Rivkin, and conductor
Dean Dixon provide spirited
performances of both con-
certos on a Westminster LIP,
which utilizes the Vienna
State Opera Orchestra. Jesus
Maria Sanroma, who is a bit
more of a virtuoso than Miss
Rivkin, also plays the D minor
on a Columbia disc, the cou-
pling in this case being Howard
Hanson'S fine, lyrical "Ro-
mantle" symphony. Both rec
ords are well engineered. It
may be that the Hanson SYM
phony has somewhat more
variability than the earlier
Mcdowell piece. DR.. Hanson
himself is the conductor, in
cidentally.
More Beethoven
Paul Badura -Skoda, who
made a good impression with
the National Symphony in
some Mozart last winter, does
a persuasive job with Bee
thoven's first concerto for
Westminster. It's quite diff
ferent approach from the
hustling kind of performance
Ania Dorfmann did with
Toscanini, for instance-lei-
surely and lyrical. Joerg
Demus. a contemporary of
Badura -Skoda's, takes the
same Viennese approach in
Mozart's 21st and 26th con-
certos, which Westminster has
paired on another release. In
the first of the pair Demus is
up against tough competition
from CaSadeSuS in one of CO.
Iumbia's best early LIPS, but I
like his playing of the "Coro-
nation" Two concertos on a
record is a palpable bargain,
certainly.
A beautifully delineated per-
formance of Beethoven's EN-
peror" is to Gieseking's credit
on Columbia. This, too. has
lyrical emphasis. Interpretive
ly I prefer Gieseking to Horo-
witz, although the sound is not
SO realistic as the recent Vic
tor issue.
Brahms D minor concerto
which was a model, incident
ally, for the A minor one by
MacDowell-is played quite
impressively by Frederick
Wuehrer for Vox. It really
deserves to be heard more
often. Hans Swarowsky and
the Vienna State Philharmonic
supply excellent collaboration.
Another good Wuehrer record
ing is the D minor concerto Of
Anton RubinStein. 1t sur
passes in listenability the ver-
sion Oscar Levant did a while
ago.
No concerto could be more
overshadowed than Tschai-
kowsky's second by his first.
While the public's preference
may be justified, No. 2 does
have some enjoyable moments,
notably in its gentle andante
and daShing finale. A pianist

vice president and technical
director Of RCA. He notes
some comparative figures:
"In 1899 a 12-inch kinescope
black-and-white console with
sound radio had a list price Of
$598. Allowing for the elimi-
nation of the sound radio. the
adjusted price would be ap-
proximately $500. Adjusting
for the change in the value Of
the dollar, this list price in
terms Of 1853 dollars would be
approximately $1,050.
Another comparison can be
made with the first console
black-and-white television re-
ceiver using a 16-inch kline
scope introduced by RCA on
January /, 1949. The average
price Of three models was $575
Cor $685. If adjusted to 1858
dollar levels in accordance
with the Bureau of Labor Sta
tisticS Price Index. The 1853
price of a comparable 17-inch
kinescope console receiver is
$270, less than one-half Of the
1949 price"

viewers, NBC and RCA have to
wait for is word from the FEC.

His Recorded Piano Concertos Are
Far Cry From TO a Wild Rose"
By jones 6. Deons

named Margot Pinter and the
orchestra Of the Berlin radio
gave q competent performance
for Urania. The sound is
thinner than the best we have
been getting lately. though,
and my copy seems to have an
occasional pitch uncertainty.
And Khochoturion
The same performers do the
well known Khachaturian
concerto on another record.
In this case they are in COM
petition with Moura Lympany
and the London Philharmonic
on a new London release, and
London'S results are consider
ably glossier, although it's
moot whether the concerto is
worth all the trouble. It's
pretty vacuous.
There seems much more
point to Khachaturian's 1946
cello concerto, which eschews
the empty display that mars
the piano opus. Although the
last m ment tends to
monotony, the work as q whole
is fairly melodious, and a cello
in almost any setting is a
grateful instrument. The
performers are SviatoSlav
Knushevitsky and the State
Orchestra. of the U. S. S. R.,
and the record was processed
by Vanguard. The solo instru-
ment comes through better
than the orchestra.
A cello concerto by Kaba-
levsky. played for Vanguard by
Daniel Shafran and the same
orchestra, contains a good deal
more melody and may be bet
ter music. On the back Of this
disc is the familiar A minor
violin concerto of Glazounov,
played dazzlingly by David Ois-
trakh. generally hailed as the
Soviet Heifetz. The recorded
sound isn't bad, but there is
occasional distortion.
A Choice Revival
The Haydn cello concerto in
D major-which some people
say really was written by a
composer named Kraft II Is
doubly available. Columbia has
just revived a choice perform
ance by the late Emanuel
Feuermann. with Malcolm Sar-
gent as the podium collabora-
tor. Victor has issued a COM
petitive version with Pierre
Fournier welding the bow and
Rafael Kubelik the baton. To
say that Fournier comes a
. close second actually is to pay
him high tribute, for Feuer-
mann's art was something rare
indeed. I like Sargent's spright-
lier tempos q bit better than
Kubelik's, and Feuermann's
rendition of the Schubert ar
peggione" sonata more than
the assorted short pieces back
ing the Victor-HMV concerto.
Fournier's accompaniment ben
efits from newer recording, Of
course, but the Feuermann
cello is little affected by time.
