SEE THE LIBBY-OWENS-FORD OF crwurt/uru) 'Copyright 1943 by Libb#y Oweni Foid Gi<3t» Cc Toledo Ohio on R. H. White's sunny fifth floor, April 10 through April 22 In this dream-world plan for the kitchen of the future, glamour replaces drudgery, and everything practical turns into something decorative. Don't miss viewing it! See how kitchen space is converted into leisure living quarters during the hours when • the kitchen is "off duty". You may even get some valuable pointers that you could adapt to your present-day living. In any case, it will all give you a cheering foretaste of happier days ahead! KEYED TO THESE TIMES The Continuing cQanguage Jjefore the ill-fated attempt to build the Tower of Babel, "the whole earth was of one language, and one speech." Then came the con- founding of language, "that they may not understand one another's speech." With divergent tongues the peoples of the world went their several ways, and their failures to understand one another's speech, and much besides, have been the cause of infinite disaster, of which the wars now tearing mankind itself asunder are the latest tokens. Of the one language and one speech that prevailed before the confusion of tongues an imperishable remnant still exists. That is the speech of music, the language understood by peoples of every tongue. In the world as we look out upon it today, it is more important than ever before that this bond of unity should be preserved. The Boston Symphony Orchestra counts it a privi- lege to contribute as it may to the continuance of this unifying influence. It is a privilege, moreover, in which everyone may share by enrolling as a Friend of the Orchestra and contributing to its financial support. It is the Friends of the Orchestra who make the concerts possible, whether in Boston, Cambridge, New York, Brooklyn, Providence, other New Eng- land cities, or in the West. The Boston Symphony Orchestra is their orchestra. It is the Friends of the Orchestra who maintain the great services now rendered by the Orchestra to music in America, and satisfy the legions to whom music is an essential spiritual and emotional outlet. Under such conditions any gift, large or small, is welcome. REGINALD C. FOSTER, Chairman, Friends of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. ENROLLMENT BLANK To the Trustees of Boston Symphony Orchestra, Inc.

Included are the works of the fol- lowing artists: Nelson Chase, Kathryn Slim Silhouette Nason (Mrs. Walter Piston), Mrs. Grace D. Reasoner, John Sharman, G. Scott White, and Karl Zerbe. Belmont has reason to be proud of having been through the years the home of so many artists of merit. It has had association with the lives of painters whose names are historic. Winslow Homer, on his many visits to his parents in Belmont, did much work there, and by permissible stretching of the term "Belmont artist," he may be claimed by that town. George Fuller was also a Belmont citizen, as were Charles Hayden, E. H. Barnard, and Aldro T. Hibbard, the landscape painters. The artists in the current exhibit are from the Belmont Hill section. Nelson Chase was trained in architec- ture at Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology and studied painting under pri- vate instruction at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. He has taught drawing and painting at M. I. T. for fourteen years and has practiced architecture, leaning toward the decorative side, with especial interest in murals. Four of his water colors and one charcoal portrait are included in this exhibit. Kathryn Nason (Mrs. Walter Piston) comes of an artistic New England family. She studied at the Massachu- setts School of Art and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. She has painted in Brittany and southwest- ern France as well as in Rockport and Vermont. Her work has been shown in numerous group exhibitions, as well Warner's LeGant Royale as at a "one-man show" at the Grace Home Galleries. Sta-Up-Top Grace D.

  • Toscanini VII, 1937-1942
    Toscanini VII, 1937-1942: NBC, London, Netherlands, Lucerne, Buenos Aires, Philadelphia We now return to our regularly scheduled program, and with it will come my first detailed analyses of Toscanini’s style in various music because, for once, we have a number of complete performances by alternate orchestras to compare. This is paramount because it shows quite clear- ly that, although he had a uniform approach to music and insisted on both technical perfection and emotional commitment from his orchestras, he did not, as Stokowski or Furtwängler did, impose a specific sound on his orchestras. Although he insisted on uniform bowing in the case of the Philadelphia Orchestra, for instance, one can still discern the classic Philadelphia Orchestra sound, despite its being “neatened up” to meet his standards. In the case of the BBC Symphony, for instance, the sound he elicited from them was not far removed from the sound that Adrian Boult got out of them, in part because Boult himself preferred a lean, clean sound as did Tosca- nini. We shall also see that, for better or worse, the various guest conductors of the NBC Sym- phony Orchestra did not get vastly improved sound result out of them, not even that wizard of orchestral sound, Leopold Stokowki, because the sound profile of the orchestra was neither warm in timbre nor fluid in phrasing. Toscanini’s agreement to come back to New York to head an orchestra created (pretty much) for him is still shrouded in mystery. All we know for certain is that Samuel Chotzinoff, representing David Sarnoff and RCA, went to see him in Italy and made him the offer, and that he first turned it down.

  • Ania -Dorfmann-"!11'
    Ania -Dorfmann-"!11' GRIEG Piano Concerto It is unfortunate that Ania Dorfmann is remembered today almost exclusively for being the soloist in Arturo Toscanini's only studio recording of a Beethoven piano concerto. Her career extended far beyond the Maestro' s orbit, as the present reissue demonstrates. Dorfmann was born in Odessa in 1899 to a merchant's family. Recognized early on as a prodigy, she played her first recital at the MENDELSSOHN age of eleven. Around this time, she also gave a joint concen with the even-younger Jascha Heifetz. Plans were made for her to go to Paris to study with lsidor Phillip at the Conservatoire, but the death of her father postponed the tri p for several years. She had Piano Concerto No. 1 been in Paris for less than a year when revolution broke out in Russia. After a visit home, she was only able to return to France with some difficulty. She made her dCbut at Liege in 1920, and concertized throughout Europe over the next fifteen years, appearing with such SCHUMANN conductors as Mengelberg, Beecham and Wood. During this period, she made a number of recordings for English Columbia, including the Mendelssohn First Piano Concerto with Walter Goehr. Carnaval In 1936, she made her American debut at Town Hall in New York, where critics praised the "rapidity and clarity" of her technique. Horowitz introduced her to his father-in-law, Toscanini, and she soon became an intimate of the family. (A letter written by Toscanini in Milan in April, 1937 mentions "Ania, that friend ofVolodya's (she' s a Russian pianist).

It was named after Camden New Jersey which was the manufacturing and distribution center of RCA Victor records. Much of the material released by Camden were reissues of albums released by RCA Victor, usually with a few less songs. Initially the label was used for classical releases but soon started releasing popular, country and comedy albums. Albums released by Camden included ones released by RCA of Canada using the same numbering system.

As a performer of Presents a Faculty and Guest Artist Recital: these styles, the Atlanta Constitution noted that "McCabe's reading of Bartok's 'Improvisations' displayed a true affinity for the eclectic Bartokian style and Debussy's 'Estampes' was a model of limpid understatement, always delivered with taste." At Oregon State University, McCabe directs the piano program and teaches I courses in the music history sequence for undergraduate majors. Based on out­ standing teaching, she was named a Master Teacher in the College of Liberal Sister.!leto· Arts, and has taught interdisciplinary courses linking music with philosophy. ;, sociology and English.
