paraphrase of it by a 18th
century poet, Michael Veg. On
the opposite side of the disc is
another Kodaly piece. the
Peacock" Variations, and the
latter is firmly rooted in Hun
garian folk music. Yet the
jacket annotator points out
that both "Psalmus Hungari-
Gus" and the variations are no.
tieeably suggestive of the
music of the British composer
Vaughan Williams.
'Psalmus Hungaricus." sur
prisingly conservative. is a po-
tent, even majestic, piece. The
variations are colorful and un-
inhibited. Kodaly uses disso-
nance, but not obstrusively,
and his music makes stimulat-
ing fare.
In "Psalmus Hungaricus"
the review copy produced occa-
sional distortion in loud pas
sages, but the reproduction on
the whole is satisfactory. The
words used are English, pre-
sumably the reason no text is
included. but one would have
been helpful. for sometimes not

Another Of those pieces or
chestra conductors like to ig-
more, Robert Schumann's
Overture, Scherzo and FL
male" /" has turned up on a new
record.
Schumann wrote this piece,
hts Opus So, the same year as
the Spring Symphony" and
the opening movement of the
piano concerto, which should
be a good hint as to its quail
ity, and is. Maybe one reason
it is not heard often is its title.
II it were called a symphony
it would probably be regularly
programmed. and If Schu-
mann, like a noted predeces-
sor, had left another move
ment in q fragment, its fame
might be tremendous.
Be all that as it may, the
Overture, Scherzo and FL
male" is worth hearing. Carl
Schuricht and the Paris Con-
servatoire Orchestra perform
1t on a London disc. with the
well-known "Rhenish" Sym
phony on the other side. The
Paris players aren't the
worlds most precise. at least
on this evidence, but Schuricht
gets them to put more convic-
ton into the proceedings than
one might normally expect.

People who like to identify

the "Psalmus Hungaricus" by

forming musician has a least
one ideal concert up his sleeve,
and the fact that the new Orff
piece makes up a large part of
Lawson's seems a good indica-
ton that it is something out
Of the ordinary.
"The piece is a setting of "a
medieval popular songs
drinking songs, love songs,
and other kinds of ballads"
said Dean Lawson. THE con-
temporary German composer,
Orff, has put these poems,
which are in Latin, German
and French, to music that has
the direct, uncomplicated ap-
peal of folksongs. The orches-
ira Is large and the orchestra
tion particularly flamboyant
and colorful.
Boritone's Score Difficult
1.-THE piece lasts more than
an hour, and the biggest sing
ing assignment is that of the
Howard University Chorus,
but soprano Adele Addison,
and tenor Leslie Chabay have
important solo roles. Lawrence
Winters. the baritone, singer
who was trained at Howard
and who now is singing with
the New York City Center
Opera, has role of such great
vocal range that when Stokow-
ski did the piece the music was
sung by two singers-a BARI
tone and a tenor. The part
goes as high as A above mid

Adele Addison and Leslie
Chabay sang together in WASH
ington last fall in the Verdi
Requiem. The former gave a
recital at the National Gal
lery last March which was
one of the most brilliant of
the season. The Howard Uni
versity Choir has tablished
itself as one of the city's

Ethel WoteFs Note
It may be news to even the
greatest admirers of Ethel
Waters, the old time singer and
entertainer who comes to Lis
ner Auditorium Thursday and
Friday, that in her early days
she was billed as Sweet Mama
Stringbean." A slender Ethel
Waters seems an impossibility.
The epithet reminds me Of a
lyric that has for me an appeal
I cannot explain, but which
perhaps marks it as genuine
poetry. Years ago in Chicago
there was a Negro singer by
the name of Stringbeans. He
was a great favorite with his
audiences. and could never
bring his show to close with
out the song everybody was
waiting for. Here are the
words. If Ethel Waters knows
it. perhaps she will supply the
tune:
When they ask you has String
beans been along
When they ask you has String
beans been dlong-
When they ask you has String
beans been along-
You say: "StringbeGnS, he
been here, done got his,
an gone"

News of Music
BY Day Thorpe

The second local conductor
to take the podiun of the
National Symphony while
Howard Mitchell is on a
musical tour of Europe will
be Warner Lawson, dean of
the music school at Howard
University.
Wednesday he leads a con-
cert of music unfamiliar to
Washington. climaxed by the
secular cantata "Carmina
Burana" by Carl Orff.
This work, for large orches-
ira, chorus and three soloists,
was given its first perform
ance in this country only a
few months ago in San Fran
cisco. 1t was later played with
great success in New York by
Leopold Stokowski.

By Bob WilIiums

The late Ralph Ranger
longed to be part of the en-
tertainment world, but be-
came a lawyer at the insistence
of his father.
However, after working in a
law firm a short time, he told
his father he couldn't continue
his career, and two weeks later
was playing piano in a theater
orchestra pit.
He soon joined Clifton Webb
and Mary Hay as vaudeville
aecompanist, and when the act
broke up because of Webb's
taking a leading role in the
First Little Show" Ralph
went along as Webb's rehearsal
pianist.
The score of the production
had no song for Webb, who
decided to repair the oversight
himself. Ranger volunteered
to help. sitting down at the
piano and improvising a tune
on the spur of the moment.
Webb liked it, and the tune,
"Moanin' Low" not only be-
came the smash hit of the
show, but was the break that
led Ralph into his promising
career as a composer.
This week, pianist Jack Fina
released a fine album in trib-
ute to the late composer.
Ranger wrote some memora-
BILE tunes, and Fina treats
them with respect and rever-
ence, allowing each individual
melody to weave it's charm
upon the listener. Included in
the set are such Ranger gems
as Love in Bloom" Il Wished
on the Moon" "If I Should
Lose YOU" Please" Thanks
for the Memory" "June in
January" with Every Breath
I Take" and the wonderful
'Moanin' Low" MGM X-2690

Tour Gives Archbishop
SchooI, Hospital Ideas

The Most Rev. Patrick A.
O'Boyle. Archbishop of Wash
ington, is expected back next
week from an inspection tour
of school and hospital construc-
tion in other cities, with local
building plans in mind.
According to reports received
here by the Very Rev. Msgr.
Philip NJ. Hannah, chancellor
of the arch hdiocese, Bishop
O'Boyle included a visit to st.
Mary's Hospital in Rochester,
Mimi, where a substantial addi-
ton is being built.
In Washington. Providence
Hospital has an So million new
building under construction at
Twelfth and Varnum streets
NE. to replace the present struc-
|ture at Second and D streets
me.
To See Cardinal Mooney
The Archbishop plans to COM
plete his trip by visiting Cardi-
nal Edward Mooney in Detroit,
where he will discuss new build
ing plans including a home for
the aged.
The archdiocese here is COM
pleting plans for an aged home
at Avondale. Md, to be known
as Carroll Manor and to have
Accommodations for a little more
than 200 persons.
Msgr. Hannah said that
among the interesting projects
seen by Bishop O'Boyle, was one
Iof the new schools in the
round" being completed ip Kan
kakee. Ill. A Chicago architect,
Edo Belli, drew plans for three
parochial high schools in that
area resembling doughnuts ot
glass, with black steel roofs.
The design is said to permit
impressive economies, with an
average cubic foot cost of 6e
cents against the prevailing cost
in the Midwest Of 81 a cubic
foot. 1t also is credited with q
potentially greater efficiency in
teaching and school administra-
ton.
New Schools in Prospect
1t is not beyond the realm oi
possibility that something of the
sort may be considered here by
the Archbishop, Msgr. Hannah
Evening star., 1955-07-13

said. Three new high schools
and several new churches are
expected to be built in this
archdiocese within the next few
years.
The Archbishop CONFER e d
with Bishop Martin Mcnamara
Of Joliet during his visit. He
also visited a new type of small
school accommodating only about
$50 at Glen Cove, Ill.
Another meeting was with the
Right Rev. Msgr. Vincent Cook
in Chicago, with whom Bishop
lO'Boyle consulted on new build
iingS.
The tour also included a stop
at Grand Rapids, the next con-
Ivention city for the st. Vincent
de Paul Society, of which Bishop
lO'Boyle is national spiritual
| director.
