The world is fortunate to have captured on numerous recordings the incompara- ble qualities of his art as conductor. Sir Thomas conducted this Orchestra as guest in January, 1928, and January, 1952. In his last book, on Frederick Delius, he made a remark about the death of his friend which could now well be directed to himself — "The most fitting epitaph upon this pathetic end of a great spirit is a preg- nant line of the greatest of poets: 'The wonder is he hath endured so long. He " but usurped his life.' THOMAS SCHIPPERS Easy Traveler Thomas Schippers was born in Kala- Our negligee of rayon challis Is light- mazoo, Michigan, March 9, 1930.

RENCH HORN: Great ancestor of the French horn — and, indeed, of all horns — was the lur of Bronze Age Europe, fashioned first from a mammoth's tusk and later from metal. The noble tone of the lur, similar to the modern French horn, was not maintained in the medieval instruments. But the gold or ivory oliphant — the horn of Roland — became a valued insigne of knighthood in the Middle Ages. The first known circular horns came from 14th- century England and settled in France, where the wald- horn began to resemble the modern French horn before 1700. Scarlatti and Handel helped to popularize it; the Classic composers used it increasingly. Their technical demands led to the development of the valve horn, which gradually supplanted the older hand horn be- tween 1830 and 1880. AMILY BANKER: when you call on the New England Merchants' Trust Depart- ment for any of a wide variety of trust services, you enjoy the continuing interest and attention of a "family banker"— a trust officer who makes your needs and wishes a part of his career, works hand-in-glove with you and your attorney, and assumes as many or as few details of your estate management as you desire.

    SOUND RECORDING REVIEWS Chicago Symphony Orchestra: The First Hundred Years CS090/12 (12 CDs: monaural, stereo; ADD)1 Available only from the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, 220 S. Michigan Ave, Chicago, IL, for $175 plus $5 shipping and handling. The Centennial Collection-Chicago Symphony Orchestra RCA-Victor Gold Seal, GD 600206 (3 CDs; monaural, stereo, ADD and DDD). (total time 3:36:3l2). A "musical trivia" question: "Which American symphony orchestra was the first to record under its own name and conductor?" You will find the answer at the beginning of the 12-CD collection, The Chicago Symphony Orchestra: The First 100 Years, issued by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (CSO). The date was May 1, 1916, and the conductor was Frederick Stock. 3 This is part of the orchestra's celebration of the hundredth anniversary of its founding by Theodore Thomas in 1891. Thomas is represented here, not as a conductor (he died in 1904) but as the arranger of Wagner's Triiume. But all of the other conductors and music directors are represented, as well as many guests. With one exception, the 3-CD set, The Centennial Collection: Chicago Symphony Orchestra, from RCA-Victor is drawn from the recordings that the Chicago Symphony made for that company. All were released previously, in various formats-mono and stereo, 78 rpm, 45 rpm, LPs, tapes, and CDs-as the technologies evolved. Although the present digital processing varies according to source, the sound is generally clear; the Reiner material is comparable to RCA-Victor's on-going reissues on CD of the legendary recordings produced by Richard Mohr.

EIGHTY-THIRD SEASON 1963-1964 TAKE NOTE The precursor of the oboe goes back to antiquity — it was found in Sumeria (2800 bc) and was the Jewish halil, the Greek aulos, and the Roman tibia • After the renaissance, instruments of this type were found in complete families ranging from the soprano to the bass. The higher or smaller instruments were named by the French "haulx-bois" or "hault- bois" which was transcribed by the Italians into oboe which name is now used in English, German and Italian to distinguish the smallest instrument • In a symphony orchestra, it usually gives the pitch to the other instruments • Is it time for you to take note of your insurance needs? • We welcome the opportunity to analyze your present program and offer our professional service to provide you with intelligent, complete protection. invite i .
