In a land beleaguered for the second time in his life-span, Jean Sibelius is just entering his 79th year. "If you see a great master," said Goethe to Eckermann, "you will always find that he used what was good in his predecessors, and that it was this made him great. Men like Raphael do not spring out of the ground. They took root in the antique and the best which had been done before them." Sibelius is not only our greatest living com- poser—"our" because he belongs not alone to Finland, but to the world he is also the one composer in this 20th century who is unquestionably in the direct lineal succession from Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven and Brahms, and the only one who, since the death of Brahms in 1897, has carried forward the art of the symphony into regions never penetrated by his predecessors. This took some doing. A doctor's son, he had his own way to make in the world; and as a young musician, he was towered over menacingly by two German colossi, one real, the other less real than he seemed then, but both of them formidable enough. They were Richard I and Richard II; Richard Wagner, the old master, who in the 1880's and 1890's was a wicked ogre whose dominating influence on music devoured young composers like little children and threw their bones under the table; and the brilliant young mas- ter was Richard Strauss, the incredible orchestral virtuosity of whose sym- phonic tone-poems seemed to pale the music of other men to ineffectual fires. What could Sibelius do? Go home to Finland, dig in, stick to his guns, write uncompromisingly the best that was in him throughout three decades, and abide the verdict. The verdict was slow in coming. While other composers were writing symphonic poems with coloristic or- [579] chestration to literary program notes, Sibelius, between 1901 and 1923, wrote Under the New seven symphonies and in a style in- creasingly austere. His first two are not so hard to understand, but half way Slim Silhouette through his Third the landscape begins to look unfamiliar, then in his Fourth (1908) we are in a totally strange though piercingly beautiful country where music never had ventured before; and this ex- ploration is continued into regions always beautiful but ever more strange and new in his Fifth, Sixth and Seventh. He had to resign himself to a wait of from ten to twenty years for his each new work to be understood even by the most ad- vanced musical public. What has Sibelius done that had never been done before? If it is not too soon to say, and if it is not presumptuous of a layman to speak of it at all, the simplest way of putting it seems to be that, in his music, the themes are de- veloped from within themselves like the gradual unfolding of the petals of a rose—in contrast to much of the thematic development in the works of older symphonists which, at its weak- est, often suggested that the composer was doing his daily dozen. "Voces In- timae" (Inner Voices) is the title which Sibelius has given his one string quartet, and the distinguishing characteristic of his music is the peculiar depth, imagina- tive as well as structural, of its voices. There is in the man Sibelius a form of strength peculiarly rare in our time. "Renown," said Goethe to Eckermann, again in that volume of "Conversations" which Dr. Sibelius knows almost by heart, "renown is not to be sought, and all pursuit of it is vain. A person may indeed by skillful conduct and various artificial means make a sort of name for Warner's LeGant Royale himself. But if the inner jewel is want- Sta-Up-Top ing, all is vanity and will not last a day." Wherever in Finland Dr. Sibelius may The smartest girdle in the best qual- be, and however sad his heart, his music ity that can be obtained under war-time restrictions.

EXHIBIT GIRDLES - BRAS - LINGERIE In the First Balcony Gallery are to be SWEATERS - SKIRTS - HOSIERY seen fifteen paintings from the now DRESSES - HATS - SPORTSWEAR famous Capehart Collection. This collection is significant, for it represents a meeting of music and paint- ing. Each painting interprets a great musical composition, providing a visual 50 TEMPLE PLACE approach to the appreciation of some of the world's most loved music. [580] — Within the past ten years Americans through such pioneering as the motion picture "Fantasia"—have become in- creasingly conscious of the close har- mony between sight and sound. To this growing awareness the Capehart Collec- tion has contributed materially. The Collection is exhibited here through the courtesy of the Capehart Division of the Farnsworth Television and Radio Corporation, and is a part of its program to extend the knowledge and appreciation of good music.

Tanner (1898-1987) MC 2013.3 Material: Papers (1890-1986) Volume: 3.0 linear feet (Document Boxes 1-6, 19 Oversized Folders, 134 Photograph Folders, 10 Books) Donation: Gift of Liz Hamill Howard (Class of 1982), 2009 Usage: These materials have been donated without restrictions on usage. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Allen C. Tanner was born on September 29, 1898 to Allen Caldwell Tanner and Mabel Waters Pace Tanner of Mount Vernon, Illinois. He came from a musically talented family, including siblings Florence, Wynona, Allene, and Earl. At the age of eight, he began training in music with an aunt who played the piano and with his cousin Mabel Pavey, who was also a skilled musician. Tanner showed promise as a pianist at an early age, and at fifteen he went to Chicago to further his musical education. He was awarded a scholarship to study with Victor Heinze and soon began performing publicly. Margaret Anderson, founder of the Little Review, heard Tanner perform in Chicago and became an admirer of his music and also a friend. Tanner then moved to New York City, where he accompanied vocalists such as Marguerite Namara and was invited to play with Ruano Bogislav (Mrs. Riccardo Martin), Frances Alda, Marguerite D’Alvarez, and Georgette Leblanc. He also performed in musical salons and came into contact with many musical greats of the era, including Myra Hess, Arthur Rubinstein, Paul Kochanski, and Karol Szymanowski. In the early 1920s, he spent a summer in Bernardsville, NJ where he shared a house with Margaret Anderson, Georgette Leblanc, and George Antheil.

She appeared with success in South America, Russia, Spain, England and her native Italy and was on the roster of the Manhattan Opera, 1908-10. One New York press notice indicates that her rendering of the “Suicidio” from La Gioconda on a Manhattan Sunday night concert “kept her busy bowing in recognition to applause for three or four minutes”. At La Scala she was cast with Battistini in Simon Boccanegra and created for that house in 1911 the Marschallin in their first Rosenkavalier.
