THE SAN ANTONIO SYMPHONY SOCIETY PRESENTS GRAND OPERA FESTIVAL WEEK By Eudora Garrett Opera, unless we relate it to the antiquity of the Greek chorus, first touched the then-unsuspected air-waves around the end of the 16th century. Florentine innovators · who were first to think "music-drama" in hyphenated form were certain to have been called off the beam-as innovators are. But they had a natural combination-one which went through phases of alternately accentuated "musically emotionalized speech" to "music with voice accompaniment." The resultant battles between singers and instru- mentalists has brought opera to its present state of balance. San Antonio belonged to the Indians in those opera-forming years. But we can be sure that the ever-alert followers of the arti.stically inclined St. Francis, who founded "Mission San Antonio de Valero" (the Alamo) in 1712, dreamed longingly of a conti­ nental home where this thing called "opera" was coming into being. Certainly the Canary Island aristocrats, sent by a Spanish king to settle San Antonio a few years later, had such dreams. Others who have added their part to Southwestern civilization during the intervening centuries must have longed for entertainment such as opera represented . because opera soon grew to symbolize the ultimate refinement of European musical life. The ghosts of all who imagined such ventures as Grand Opera on the plains of South Texas might well be looking on this first Festival as an answer to their thought. It is experimental-admittedly. It is a tremendous undertaking for the San Antonio Symphony Society, the organization of citizens that sponsors the Festival as the chef­ d'ouvre of its six-year existence. It is the realization of all possibilities that opened when Max Reiter, Italian conductor of symphony and opera throughout Europe, came along as a gift to Texas from nazi-fascist persecution. The Festival brings for the first time, "grand opera in the grand manner" which its composers conceived. Twelve _Metropolitan Opera artists comprise the casts for four productions. The 100-voice chorus is made up of Texas singers who tell David Griffin of their gratitude for this opportunity to work with world-renowned opera stars. Stage sets have been designed and built here-the achievement for which the famous "Robin Brothers" have waited. "Tony" Stivanello, expert stage director of New York, is in charge of production. And Max Reiter's 75-piece Symphony Orchestra is playing all scores-a note that makes - national music news in itself, because only the Metropolitan Opera uses an orchestra .of this size. This Festival is San Antonio's own achievement-one of which the city is proud. War-born, it gives thousands of men in uniform entertainment such as only New York, Chicago, San Francisco and a few other centers provide.

Courtesy of Beethoven Maennerchor Archives Towards the end of the Republic of Texas and in the early days of statehood, German settlers began arriving at the Ports of Galveston and Indianola. They were coming to Texas largely because of promises made to them for a better political and economic life by the Society for the Protection of German Immigrants in Texas, the Adelsverein. The Adelsverein was an organization formed in 1842 by German noblemen who wanted to create prosperous new settlements in what is now central Texas.1 The first group of German settlers to arrive under the auspices of the Adelsverein was led by Prince Carl of Solms- Braunfels. On March 21, 1845, the Adelsverein established its first community in central Texas and named it “New Braunfels” in honor of the Prince’s estate Produced by The Berkeley Electronic Press, 2003 1 Journal of Texas Music History, Vol. 3 [2003], Iss. 2, Art. 4 Celebrating “Das Deutsche Lied” in Texas in “Das Deutsche Lied” Celebrating Painting of Germania Gesangverein Neu Braunfels,Texas, courtesy of RABA Studio and Beethoven Maennerchor Archives The first year in the new homeland was tenuous.

  • 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.
