The character, the ability, the watchfulness, and the experience of the men who build the Mason & Hamlin piano, are the ultimate reasons for Mason & Hamlin greatness. Ever on the alert for possible improvement, these artist-craftsmen— of whom many have devoted more than 25 years to the Mason & Hamlin—dedicate themselves to making their piano the synonym for perfection. Mason & Hamlin artisans have always been imbued with this spirit ever since the earliest days of Mason & Hamlin’s establishment in 1854. We invite you to hear and play the Mason & Hamlin. Then you’ll know why it has such an enviable reputation—the final mark of greatness. , "The Music House of Los Angeles Since 1880" outhern California MUSIC COMPANY 737 S.

    WILLIE ROBYN: A RECORDING ARTIST IN THE 19205 (PART 2) By Tim Brooks Victor to Cameo The early 1920s must have been a heady time for young Robyn, with an exclusive Victor contract, a burgeoning stage and radio career, excellent reviews for his concert work, and talk of the Met. But by 1923 he had hit a plateau. The first setback was the loss ofhis agent, the enthusiastic Hugo Boucek. Boucek had run up large bills publicizing his artists. The economic depression of 1921-22 cut into concert revenues, and many concerts were canceled outright. Deeply in debt, Boucek skipped town, never to be heard from again. Left in the lurch, Robyn did not secure another agent, a move he later felt was a mistake. "I was the most mismanaged person that ever lived," he ruefully explained. The first matter he had to deal with was the expiration of his three-year Victor contract, in mid-1923. Victor was happy to renew, but for the same $7,000 per year as the previous term, and with Robyn still pretty much limited to the foreign series. Robyn insisted on more money, and another chance at popular recording. He made a new popular trial, "Dearest," on April 11th with Nat Shilkret accompanying on piano. Robyn scouted around for other options, and even made a test for Edison on May 24th. The test was reviewed by Thomas Edison himself, who noted of Robyn, 1 Has loud tremolo. Sings too loud. Ifsang less loud he would be much better and have less tremolo. He might do with proper songs.

    SESSION SEVEN NEGLECT OF UNUSUAL INSTRUMEMTS OR COMBINATIONS OF INSTRUMENTS NEGLECTED GEM OF THE WEEK This week’s neglected gem is by a well-known composer of orchestral and organ music. WHY NEGLECTED? ◊ ◊ ◊ NEGLECT BECAUSE OF UNUSUAL INSTRUMENTS Today’s topic is an interesting one, and more complicated than at first it seems. We’re going to explore the neglect of classical music because of unusual instruments or combinations of instruments. Of course, in every era of music history there have been unusual instruments – instruments which, for various reasons, were not as popular, or well-known, or accessible as were others. But we’re not going to take a historical approach today. We’re just going to consider the present day, and the neglect of some excellent music in 2015. As we will see, the instruments, or combination of instruments, for which a piece is written, can result in several possible kinds of neglect. WHY COMPOSE MUSIC FOR UNUSUAL INSTRUMENTS? Why have composers, from time to time, written music for unusual instruments, or combinations of instruments? There are many reasons, from personal ones such as the desire to perform with a friend or family member, to more public ones, such as wanting to honor an excellent performer, or being commissioned by a performer to write such a piece. As we listen to some of these pieces, we’ll find out more about why they came to be written, and why they are neglected in the 21st century. ◊ ◊ ◊ NEGLECT OF MUSIC WRITTEN FOR ARCHAIC INSTRUMENTS One obvious reason for the neglect of some music today is that the instruments for which they were originally written are no longer used, or even available for us to hear.

  • A Caravan of Culture: Visitors to Emporia, Kansas by Charles E
    A Caravan of Culture: Visitors to Emporia, Kansas by Charles E. Webb INTRODUCTION hat do Ulysses S. Grant, "Buffalo Bill" Cody, Susan B. Anthony, Will Rogers, Ethel Barrymore, and Dr. \Verner Von Braun haye in common"? They were W among the hundreds of famous people that have visited EmpOria, Kansas during the past one hundred years. In­ dividuals and groups of national and international fame, represen­ ting the arts, seiencl's. education, politics, and entertainment, have pa~sed before Emporia audiences in a century long parade. Since 1879, this formidable array of personalities has provided informa­ tion and entertainment to Emporia citizens at an average rate of once eaeh fifteen days, The occasional appearanee of a famous personality in a small city may well be considered a matter of historical coineidence. When, however, such visits are numbered in the hundreds, arc fre­ quent, and persist for a century, it appears reasonable to rank the phenomenon as an important part of that eity's cultural heritage. Emporia, although located in the interior plains, never ae­ cepted the role of being an isolated community. It seems that the (own's pioneers eonsidered themselves not on the frontier fringi'" of America, but strategically situated near its heart. From the town's beginning, its inhabitants indicated an intention of being informed and participating members of the national and world communities. To better understand why Emporia was able to attract so many distinguished guests, a brief examination of its early development is required. In the formative years of the city's history wc may identify some of the events, attitudes, and preparations Ihat literally set the stage for a procession of renowned visitors.
