MAIL THIS PROGRAM BOOK TO A FRIEND PROGRAM NOTES at prices you will appreciate By Cecil Smith When William Schuman’s “Prayer, 1943” was first per­ formed in Pittsburgh by the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, Fritz Reiner, conductor, the young American composer re­ every coat an advance quested that no descriptive material be included in the program notes. He did, however, supply the following explanatory remarks himself: Saks Fifth Avenue design “There is nothing to say about the music, for the com­ position, of course, must speak for itself. However, in the interest of forestalling any possible misunderstanding, I would like to say a word about the title. This work is not program music in the usual sense of that over-worked term. There 669 North Michigan Avenue, Chicago is no story, nor is any realistic event being depicted. The title is merely some indication of the kind of feeling that went into the composition.” Earlier this summer Mr. Schuman was represented on a Ravinia program, when Désiré Defauw conducted the “Amer­ ican Festival Overture” on July 4. Born in New York -City in 1910 (tomorrow is his birthday), the composer is now a member of the faculty of Sarah Lawrence College in Bronx­ ^Jlte (jreateât ville, N. Y. He studied at Columbia University in New York, and also with Charles Haubiel and Roy Harris, as well as at the Mozarteum in Salzburg, Austria. His third C^ourâe symphony was awarded the 1942 prize mention of the New York Music Critics’ Circle, and is promised for performance in Orchestra Hall next season by Mr. Defauw.

PROGRAM NOTES By Cecil Smith Arne Oldberg, born in Youngstown, , in 1874, received his basic musical education in Chicago, studying with August Hyllested, Wilhelm Middelschulte, Adolf Koelling, and Fred­ erick Grant Gleason. Later, in Europe, he studied with Theodor Leschetizky and Josef Rheinberger. Since returning from his student experiences abroad, he has lived continuously in Evanston, where he served as professor of piano at North­ western University until his recent retirement. The movement played tonight is the third movement of Mr. Oldberg’s fourth symphony. This movement was com­ posed in 1941, in response to a commission from the Ravinia Festival, and its first performance took place at Ravinia on July 15, 1941, with Nicolai Malko conducting the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Two years earlier, on July 15, 1939, the first movement of the symphony had been conducted for the first time anywhere at Ravinia by Willem Van Hoog- straten. The first complete performance of the entire sym­ phony, which is in four movements, took place on December 31, 1942 in Orchestra Hall, with Hans Lange conducting.

PROGRAM NOTES By Cecil Smith The fourth piano concerto, in G Major, is in many respects the freest and most original of Beethoven’s five concertos for the instrument. It was written in 1806 (and possibly partly in 1805), during a period in which some of Beethoven’s richest inventions crowded upon one another; in chrono­ logical order it belongs between the Appassionata Sonata for piano and the three great quartets, Opus 59, dedicated to Count Rasoumovsky. Because of the amazing freshness of material and novelty of treatment the G Major Concerto is badly misrepresented by dry literary analysis. The music is singularly fluent and continuous in the elaboration of its musical materials. The development of the materials is enhanced by surprising modulations to new keys, by extraordinarily beautiful decora­ tive embroideries in the piano part, and by a happy balance of interest between the solo instrument and the orchestra.

PROGRAM NOTES By Cecil Smith “The Birthday of the Infanta,” a ballet-pantomime based upon the story by Oscar Wilde, was given its première by the Chicago Opera Association in the , December 19, 1919. Adolph Bolm, now connected with Ballet Theatre, was the choreographer, and danced the role of Pedro, a dwarf. danced the title role of the Infanta. The settings and costumes were designed by Robert Edmond Jones. The music played today is a revision of thé original score made by John Alden Carpenter in 1940. The plot of “The Birthday of the Infanta” centers upon a party given for the little princess. In the course of the festivities, the princess thoughtlessly attracts the interest of a misshapen dwarf by throwing him her handkerchief. As the dwarf pursues her out of the room, he sees his reflection in a mirror for the first time. Shocked at his ugliness, he hurls a candlestick at the mirror, and as it shatters he falls to the floor, dying of a broken heart. RAVINIA FESTIVAL ASSOCIATION PAGE THIRTEEN
