" EVERY ONE A 'GIBSON'- ITE" The Delpha Mandolin Orchestra, Arthur F. Den~e. Conductor ,

Teacher and Soloist writes: "S ince my Orchestra ba s adopted the ' Gibson' instrum ents there has been a vast improve:n en1 in tone quality and members' interest."

'Tis Better to Deserve than to Demand He has stood ror principles rat her than men; therefore has

Mr. Ders e succeeded , because dc se n 'ing- and no one can climb up any other way.

I t's tone quality t hat comma~ds Orchestra members' in teres t , and makes that Orchestra deserving.

And the deserv ing arc sought - t he undeserving seek. No one atte nds rehearsa ls because he bought his inst ru ­

ment cheaply. and the teacher who sells t he cheap instrument is he who pay s the greatest tax by entreaty to get members regularly to rehe arsa ls.

Thu s it is better to deserve than to entreat or demand, and loya lty to thi s principle rat her than to chea pn ess or short ­sighted selfishn ess, is the ladder upon whic h this man of worth and his orchestra have risen .

H e;, who wou ld climb up some other way i:ees on ly the stars. while his feet a re a lready on the brink of t he quick sands.

Mr . D ene and his Orchestra have commande d maximum attent ion by t heir prog ressiveness in adopting, advanc ing and profiting by · The Hartn ett System or Teaching and Study,

Universal Notation and , A Constant War on Ignoran ce. .

Th ey have placed the rea l good above see ming profit and Progr essiveness above conventiona lity, and when such stand­ards of right are va lued above hy pcr --0rth odoxy and conserv­ati sm , the tet hers to slow an d fitful progrcs, are loosed and the musica l soul mounts in a straight line towards the idea l.

the Adirondack s, where the "red god s", hold fort h about eight miles over lakes, st reams and trai ls from Beaver Ri\ •cr in Herk imer Co., N. Y.

One day in the month of A ugust, 19 11 , we- a good friend and "Katish" - wcrc slowly "troll ing" in the writer' s littl e "red -green" boat on Big Crooked Lake. Silently we awaited the " tug" from the out-spe nt, trailing lines; t hat electric, alert-c ompelling message from th e deep , which, if properly received and expertly handled , would possib ly mean the a rriva l of the fisherman 's greatest joy­momcnt - 11.1ing tlrr landi11g nrl, and then to another of those ncvc r-to-bc-fo rgollc n lunche s in the wood s would be added th e finishing touch - trout.

"Sc u OLARS FA1L \V111LE CARL.AND S CROWN TUE D u~cE"

As the littl e boat. padd le-propelled hr one hand , glided along at a snail' s pace , va rious t}•pes of failure s 3nd successes came to mind and were mentally compared . Lizzie Brown, ten }'Cars old and the ordinary type of child - lacking, comparatively speaking, in both intellectual and emotiona l deve lopmen t- is brought to the tea cher for instruction. (Seldom docs a chi ld voluntari ly urk the stud y of mu sic.) Fortunately, her emotions have as yet been but little deve loped, and so she naturall y approache s and engages in thi s stud}', as she docs with her school

prob lems; that is, she trie s to stud~· understanding ly, in so far as conditions anJ her own limi1cd intellect will permit. 1-lcr chances, therefore, arc good for making the o,u rncctu iu ln1, in ~pitc of the heart-breakin g customs imposed by the old method s, assuming 1hat she studies under th em, and thi s for the reason that , while soh-ing her mu sical problem s, she is not- at least not 10 any great (•xtent - inttrfurd fl'ith by d, ulop ,d rmo1im1. She succeeds.

~Ir. A. Bcrit c, a).!C thirty-eight - an in1elligent and alert pe rson, and a successful bu siness man - !'Oluntaril)· 1uk1 in,1r11ctio,1. De nloped emotio n has lcJ him to the !Hmlr of music. Finding th at the o rdinary cus1oms and experiences of life fail to gi,·c expression 10 one's various des ires, aspirati ons and mood s, and being con\'inccd that 1hc infu sion of a little self-reprodu ced music would supplr the missing link in the chain of life' s \·crsati liry. gratify the cra\·ings of an cmotion•stan ·cd soul and gi\·e that color and roundness so 11ecessar y IO a comp lete exi~tencC, he hearken s with joyou s anticipati on to the call of t he music­gods. T he first opportunity to st udy mu sic now present s it self and , an swcrin~ the call. he procures an inst rument. T hen, with the en1husiasm usually born of the con tem• plati on of 1omrthi11g 11r.:i·, he hopefully starts out on the trail lead ing to the mos t beautiful of all musica l lake s­T1111r.

But he was led by a guide (teacher ) who made him bclie, ·c thnt he could enjoy 1hc beauties of the sough1 for ~oa\ (tune ), whi/1 urki11g it: that he could actuall~ - bask in the sun shine of tune , while rarni"g {:) it - in fac1, could ,oro a11d reap at Jiu sam, 1im,. He drh·es himself and his familv almost mad with his aimle ss and franti c effons to ati.empt the working out of tune with sound. resulting in hideous tune-distorti ons, and finds that many ··goals" may be reachcd - rxap1i11g rh, rir,ht o,u.

He now sum mons all the patience. determination and forti111dc that he can mu ster, and earne stly a\'ows that, '' I will learn the darned thin~ or bu st." ~-c,. in spi te of all, he becomes hopelessly discoura1,:ed and · finally does "bust." - quitc. He is now comple1el~· ticketed and tagged as 011t of the "nine out of ten"' musi'°al failure s. It is so consoling for th e teacher to reflect- the writer him self has so '"reflected .. and knows th e feeling- that thi .1 man '·ha s no talent for music; ' ·'he is not musicalh · gifted," ct cetera. As for Bait<.·. himself. he looks at thC matter in quite a similar li1d1t .md becomes resigned to his musical fotc. " I cou ldn"1 learn time , so guess thcre· s no music in me ! .. sings the new member of the ;.Down and Out ~ lusical Club,"' and thu s helps to pro,·c that "T he scholar Fail s while Carl.and s Crown the Du nce."

Th e abo\'C o rder is rc\ ·ersed ;inJ in\'Crscd until one is pen ·erscd at the cha o1ic maZl'. imposed by a contemplati on of the situati on. In trying to get a comprchen sid! trasp upon the matter to scrn: as a figuring b3sis, one ma~ follow down through the \\·hole list of mu sic-student tnJcs - tak ing the successes and failures just as thcr come - and the conclusion is reached that , to the tune-hungry beginner, the intelle ct recci\'es \'Cry littl e consideration in the app licati on of 1he old methods. It is such innstiga­tion which forces the pertinent question: Is there any common -sense in music methods which ~m1it the com­paratively unintelligent child of ten rears to succeeJ. while the in1elligent, a lert and succe ssful bu siness ma n fails?

Th e answer pro\·cs- if it pro\ ·es anyt hing-two points . Virst, with the adult, that mixing intelli~ncc and de vel­oped emotio n is gene.rally attended with disaster, no matter how great the int elligence. Second, with the chi ld, that ve ry litt le intelligence is necessary to :1cquire

There seems to exisl in the minds of manr people some confusion as to lhl· luiiiation Fee and Annu:il Dul'S of Gui ld member ship. For the benefit o( those desiring or considering membership a \\OrJ is here appe nded con• ceming th ese fct..~ and Jue,. For :\ ssoci:ne membership, thu e is no initiation ju ,,.q,.;,,.J. but ,;imply an annual J ue of fifty cents (5oc)- a reduction of one•h:ilf of th e former cost, as suggested hr t he Sccret.·u-r: r rcasurer and passed by th e Connnt ion of 19 13.

For Professiona l membcr~hip, e\'t:ry 11nv memb er, when j oinini the organization. must par an initiatio n fee of one dollar (S1.00J, besides th e annual due of i 1.oo, mak ing the total amou nt of the 01t rn na assessment i 2.oo. After thi s th ere is no cost S3\·e the annual du es of )51.00 (payabl e in ad\ :rnce) so long as a person shall cont inue in Prof essional membership. but no obligati on exists to continu e in such members hip longer than is pcrsonallr de1ircd. J udging from · nr jous letter s received by the Sec.rct.ary-Trcasurcr , there would seem to be an idea prevalent among man r t hat the initiation fee muSl be rcgular ly included wit h the annu al dues. Thi s is not so, as the payme nt of the fee for initiat ion is required but o,ic,1 and that only when joining th e Guild.

1bc weakest, menta lly speaking, ha, ·c e1:actly 1he same ri8ht 10 dema nd and receive the benefits accorded bv mu sic, as ha,·e the stronges t. For the J,roddess of musi~ knows no bia s; shows no unjust favoriti sm to th ose who coun her; imposes but fe\,. eJ:actions upo n those to whom she ~ives so much in return for p,-opcrlr directed effort s, and the jor of achievement is as sweet to th e dunce as it is to the scholar. Th erefore , any set o f rules or prin ciples, designed for the purpose o f indicating th e correct meth od of proced ure in self-reproducin g tune , should be simple of compr ehension, easy in app licatio n and ye t sufficiently broad in scope to perm it the weak , as well as the strong, to unde rsta nd, app ly, achieve and enjoy. Such principles should be at least as simple and broad as arc th ose gove rn­ing the art of photography , where drrrlop er and hypo "wo rk" as faithfully for th e littl e child as th ey do for the ad ult - fo r tlu dunu as tu /I as f or tlu scholar.

T o quote from a previo us article: "Th e very fact that th ere is such a great nriety of method s in use re, •ea ls a confu sed state of a lb .in; an indefinitene ss of pur pose that can carry wit h it naught save doubt , pcrp le1:ity, confusion, wasted energy and- nine tim es out of ten­utte r failure ." In the vast solitud es and silences, I th ought much upon th e grea t army of failures and reflect ed that , 5eason after season and wit h attentio n devo ted exclusive ly

to teac hing, one meth od aft er anot her was thorough ly t rie·d out , unti l all the old meth ods were exha usted and found - want ing. Nevert heless, the propor tion of failur es and successes rema ined about the same .

Th is statem ent is not made at ha p-hazar d, nor is it made with out taking into ser ious considera1ion t he possi­bilit y of indiv idua l error in t he int erpretation and app lica­tio n of t he old meth ods. For the writer docs not base his conclusions solely upon his own personal experiences, but mostly upon the expe riences of other s; teachers of int elligence who have expressed similar \·iews and admit to similar experie nces, and hundred s of student s­repre sent ing all trpe s, some of whom had studie d under very prominent teachers.

Th at which should be the most obvious is quite oh e11 t he \'Cry last to present iu clf.

B,· T Iit : "5£t'. ,\:-TRE ,\ S11

MRS. C. P. Quackenbu sh was Chief Serenader .11 the June ISt Serenade and, 3.ftcr the cus­tomar y G. 1-:., her \"Cry intere sting program

opened with the Premier So lo de Co ncert, for flute and piano , b}' Gu staH Schmidt. T his number was played br the cornpo:.cr' s younge st sun Emile, the regular fluti st o f th e Scrcnadcr s Orchc strn. wit h an older son at the pian o as accompani st. T he mu sic appeared quite diffic u lt , fro m die sco re, anJ it wa s a surpri se to hear it played with an ca se and aband on hardly to be expe c ted from so youn g a performer. T he o lder son o f the co m­poser is 'cellist in \\'alter Damr osc h' s Kew York Svm­phony, while the younger lad is following in his fatl;cr' s foo utcp s. \Ir.

T he sec0nd nu mber was a Romance by Davidoff, played on the octave ma nda la by i\li ss \ I arr C. T horndike.

T he Serenade of June 15th was an unusua lly good one, and almost a "crowd' ' assemb led.

SO much has already been written concerniniz th e pro­ceedin gs of the Twelfth Annual Con, ·c111ion of the American Guild of Banj oists, .\lanJ olinists and

Guitarist s, that mr reader s should ha, ·e a nr r clear idea of wha1 was accompli shed ther e. T herefore, to write further along the se lines would be futile and tirin g. 1\ nd }'Cl I ba\ ·e been wonderin~ whether all of th ose who ha, ·e had 1he op portunit ies of attending the se con,·enti ons since their beginning ha\'c 1101ed t he musical growth of the ind ividua l member s o ( thi s organizati on. Com parinJ!, in Ill} ' own •mind , the membe rs who anendcd th e first, second and t hird conventi ons with th ose who were present :it the twelfth, I noti ce a great difference , and thi s differ­ence reflects so much credit upon the Guild as a body that I have ventu red to speak of it , alth ough it docs not app ly di rectly to t his department.

In the first period of the Guild' s existence , ther e were a. few soloists on t he mand olin, guitar and ban jo who were mu sicians, and a few who coup led their mu sicianship with t he profe ssion of teachi ng. At the prcscm tim e. ho,, ·c,·cr, the major ity of the Guild member s arc musicians, as well as instru mentali sts and teacher s, and their combined effo rt s promise well to become one of the izreat factors o ( t he mu sical world.

\\"hat is t he c:iuse of thi s izrcat change and \·igorous impro vement? I think I can safcl~· assert that it has been brou!!ht about - if not wholl~-. at least in th e .(!reater part ­by the g.ithering 1ogctlu:r of th e teachers from ~Tar to year at tf1esc convention s, with the opportunitie s for compari sons an d cri1icism arising from th e splendid concert s therl· )!ivcn, b~- the inst ructi, ·e paper s read before the member s al the meeting s, and by the sub seq uent discussions afforded by their readin g. \\"hat would be more natural than. o n return inf! home, to stud y 11111,if. be­sides the mand olin, guitar and banj o. :iftcr disconring the gene ral lack of trainin~ along thc se lines. when co111rastcd wit h the work o ( the rea l musicians displa~·cd at the se concerts?

Hut the Gui ld, besides helpin g its own mem~e rs, is constantly helpinµ everr lover of the plec1rum i11s1rumcnts as well, and whet her you arc in or out of it , the Guild hrlps yo11 by raisin~ the statu s of your instrument. The America n Gu ild of Banj oists, !\lan do linists and Guitarists is not selfish, for it li\·es to up lift the plectrum instruments · and t heir devotees, and is your best friend. Can you, th en, afford to reap th e benefits de rived b~• all from lhis great orga nization, without giving your litt le mite towards th e st rengt hening of its capaci ty for musical enlighten­ment ? Come, send in your :ipplication for membership and be one of us.

\\'h en playing arpej!gi. whether th ey include two, three or fou r strin gs in their executio n, the supreme difficulty is to be found in ob1ai ning the pr oper ang le o f cont:ict on the returnin_g sweep of t he plectrum. In play ing ascending arpeggi on four string s, the plectr um is, of cour se, held as illu str ated in phot ograph '.'\o. + in last month' s anicle. But it ( th e plec trum ) p ractica lly mo, ·es somewhat in the directi on o f the sound-h o le, until the t\ string is reached, and then it turn s a little to ward s the bridge , striki n!,! t he E strinJ?, After thc linish o f the downward sweep , th't: hand mu st be .turneJ inward, with the t humb sliglnlr cun ·cd. ).!ivin).! the plcc1rum a d1.:ince to assume the J<1mr posi1iou fo r 1he upward sweep th at i1 held in the downward. the only Ji!Tcrcn ce bein ~ that no w the other side of the plectrum is used.

The line s o f contact o f plectrum and strin gs o n thi s backward sweep fo rm an acute an).!lc, theref o re I have termed thi s stroke 1hc acute-up stroke . \\' c h:l\e, the n, five different strokes : the arnu-d o:n i, the <1rt1u- 11p, the ob111u-up1 the J1wi glit-dv.i·11 and th e stMiglit-11p ur okes.

Th e acute-d own stroke should be used in conseculi\'e do wn str okes, especia lly whC11 th e no1cs arc not st:icc.:ito.

Th e acute-up str oke is used in descendin g ar pe).!gi on two , three or four string s. ,

The obtu se-up stroke is used in conjuncti on with the acute-down stroke for slurring the note s on the ma ny different :irticulati ons.

The straigh1-down and the st raig ht-u p strokes arc used in staccato, and in pla)•ing inter va ls whe re one o r two stri ngs arc to be skipped o r when the two notes arc to be played on two d ifferent string s.

I h:i" e dc\'oted many yea rs o f stud y to these different forms o f strokes and have played them to many different mu sician s, aski ng them to tell how thi s or that effect sounded. Their verdict has a lway s been as I expected, and I am convinced t hat t he mando linist of t he futu re will have to ta ke t hese d ifferent str okes into cons ide ratio n­and mas ter th em, if he wishes to phrase correctly a nd beau tifull y , a nd to colo r his mus ic tastef ully.

W hen play ing t he acute-dow n, acute -up a nd ob tuse -up stro kes, t he plectrum mu st be held extre mely loose. Wh en p lay ing t he s tr aigh t~o wn ~nd th e st ra ight- up st rokes, it may then be held a litt le tight er.

.,J. 1. lfr a ll means vou shou ld learn the C nota-tion, and in orde r to be wcll .infon nt·d and able to play the ma ss of banjo mu sic now cxtaut in this cou ntry for the banjo , you i-hould olso have a knowledge of the .'\ notation. One of the prima ry and important rea sons foF lcarnin1,: an<l uiiinµ-the C notation is that it is 1111uiwlly coru c/

1 a nd

that its use lea, ·es t he reading in the ker in whic h the instru ment is wned. the 1\ notation making it a tr a nspos­ing instrument, which stric tly i-peaki ng it is not. l nci­dentallr, it ma}· be saiJ that the syste m o f treb le clef writi ng which has heretofo re been used for the banjo, bot h in A and C notation, h:ts m.1lle it (and 1hc guitar as well) a transpo sin_µ-instrument, in tlw sense 1hat tl1e :tctua l pitch o f the note s is au octa\"c 'lowcr than lhe positio n on th e staff would ind icate.

2.

j. If yo u mea n the banjo music alrcadr published and for sale , tht· pcrccntaµc is somewhat ove rwhelmin gly in favor of 1hc J\ 1101.:11iou: but o f t hat being published at the prcsc ut time, I shou ld sar that per haps 40% is either being puhli shcd iu C alone or in botli notation s. Thi s Joc s not t:ikc into co11sidcratio11 the publication s of the J•:ugli sh market, of whid1 there is an almost unlimited supply , all of whi ch (with 1he exception o f a few pieces by one publi sher ) arc iu the C notation.

-f· Th e ad\'autagc s o f the C notation to a banj o player arc numerou s, if no t unlimited. The grow inj( po pulari1r and adopti on of plce1ru m playi ng on the banj o open s the lidd o f mand olin and , ·iolin mu sic 10 a great extent to the banjoist who read s in C. By the use of the fin~er s and the plectrum. prae1ica llJ· 1hc entire range of mu sic, in so far a it can be made to lit the banjo, is at the command o f the player. Ordinarr gui1ar accompa niments d iffer ,·err littl e from banj o accompaniments, except in 1he occas ional form o f the chord, and these arc immediately anilable to the C reader. \\' i1h a certain amount of practice in the war o f adapting piano chords to the banjo, it is also pos sible 10 read direct from the piano score without the necessi ty o f tran sposin,L!'; a lth ough to do thi s rcadil r, especia lly with the fingers, require s t he abilitr to arran ge on the spot, and the facility with which thi s can be done mu st depend on the def!ree of difficult} ' o f th e co mpos ition. l •

Another adnrnta~e. as implied in the answe r to yo ur first que stion, is that you arc invar iabl y playing in th e same ker as yo ur accompani st. Th e o,u ext ra added line abo, ·e the staff is nol a serious drawback, and in fact, is partly m:idc up for by that which is /01t below the sufT. Reading o ne line rno re u r less is largclr a matt er of habit, 1nd is (o r should be) no more o f a hardship to the banjoist than to the , ·iolinist , pianis1 o r fluti st.

co mposer, durin~ hi~ last tour o f thi s country, shortly before his death, de\'Otcd considerab le time to the banjo, and c,·en ga, ·e lessons on it to the well-kn ow n basso, Karl For mes. Th is wa s in the early dars of the ban j o, and of course before its pre sent stage o f dc ,1ck>pment had been reached. It is also said that Thalberg , the great piani st and riva l of Liszt, was passionately fond of the banjo in his declining years; but whethe r it was as a player or merely a love r o f the instrument, we arc no t told.

F.. B. D., ri.tansfield, Ohio. Q. la it possib le to obtain in struction books o r

st udi es for the mando la and mando-cc llo, and in Universa l Notation? ·

A. Th e Publi sher of Tm : CADENZA has issued &Orne easy Studies for both of the se instruments in this notati on, and the Gibson Mando lin-Guit.ar Co. has in p ress, com­plete 1'.lcthod1 for both mandala and mando-ce llo in Unive raa l 1otation.

11·. L. ~I., Roc hcst c, , 1'. Y. Q. 1. Can you give me some informat ion in regard

to copyrighting a mu sica l composition, and who pays the fee!

?. Wh at dOCs a mu sica l comp os ition usually bring? .,/ . 1 . Th e copyright of a composition is usually

attended to b}' the publisher, he paying the fee, which is i,;1.00 , un less arrangements arc made to have the compose r aucnJ to thi s. Th e p11bli1hn, stri c tly speaking, is the one who owns the copyright, after ha ving made a rran ge­ments with the compo:.er, eit her hr pur cha sing the com­position out right, o r publis hin g it on a rO)'alty or other ba sis, and who attends to ulli11g t he co mposition. Oc­cas iona lly t he nominal publisher is rea lly nothing more 1han th e agent who gets the pri111ing done and attend s to the ncceuary detai ls of ge ttin g a compo siti on on the market for the comp ose r.

z. Thi s q ues tion hardlr admits of an in telligent an swer since co mpositio ns have been sold to publi shers at !'rices ra nging from $ 1.00 to $25,000 , the price o f course depe nd ing o n a dozen different thing s, such as the merit o f the work, its poss ibilitie s in the way of popu larity , the reputati on o f the composer , etc. Sousa traded one of his first ma rche s, which later had a tremend ous sale, fo r a n old dictionar y. If you mean to ask ho w much a co m­positio n usual!}' bring s in the ,\·ay o f re\'enuc to the com­pose r o r publi sher, the sca le would slille from some hun­dreds of thou sand s profit to about the sam e amount in a '' sunken fund." It is absolutely imposs ible to gi, ·c an y idea of what a compo siti on will or shou ld bring, since that will depend largcl}' on what the pub lisher :.ccs in it and how badlr he wa nts it.

E. Y. ~I., Sa n Fr ancisco, Ca l. Q. I. I have trouble in taking the chord F~, A,

Di; in the first posi tio n on the banj o. Can )'Ou suggest any way to make th is chord ea sier?

2. Should th e strin ~s of the banjo be loos ened when not in use, and would you ad vise kcepinv the instru ment in the case all the time ?

A. I. Your difficulty in takin g thi s chord prohab ly comes from an incor rect position of the lefL hand. The tips o f the fingers mu st be useJ, and care taken that the fingers do not inte rfere with et her slriu gs than the ones being pressed dow n . It is also essentia l that the 1hu111b be draw n well down under the edge of the finge rboard, a nd that the wrist be slightly thrown out for 1his particu lar cho rd. ·

2. The st rin gs o f any instrument sho uld always be left up to pitch, for the} ' will not on ly Ian much longer, lrnt the instrument is always kept in tune, 1hus savi ng the annoyance of stretching the str ings to tuning pitch.

As a ,enc ral thin g it is better to keep the i nstr ument in some kind of case, either a carry ing case, or so me ot her kind,10 th at it may be protected from atmo spheric chan ges.

THE MANDOLINIST (Contiruied from p11g, 31)

One ma y hold the plectrum so that it will form the co rrect ang le, and yet fail to secur e t he correc t result, or the differenc e in soun d may be so very slight as to be ha rd ly noticeabl e. This genera lly hap pe ns with yo un g players, or even with expe•rienccd pla yers at th eir first attempt.I, but such a failure shou ld no t be a sou rce of discour agement. A g reat impr ove ment will be no ted after the playe r ha s had sufficient practice, and enough of experience to secure case and freed om with the right hand .

If the well laid plan s of i\ l r. C. V. Buncl man and ot hers do not "ga ng aglee," J ackso n, i\li ch., will have a good mando lin o rche st ra for the com ing seaso n of 19 13- 14. Th is orc hesl ra is alr eady orga nized with a mini mum mem­bersh ip o f twenty player s, and a good prospec t of fift )', with Prof. G. L. Curtis o f Ann Arb or, ~1l ich., as dire cto r. Th e only qua lifica tion necessary to eligib ility is to "s how promise" and to " make good." Certai n comme nt from the loca l press, rel ative to th e new orga nizati oti, is of pec uliar significan ce at th e present time , and from it we quot e tw o exce rpts.

"The pop ular ity of the mando lin orchestra ha s in­creased treme ndo usly within the past te n years. Th e mando lin o rches tr a of tod ay is a standard instituti on in the musica l world, and quit e unlike the o ld mand olin club s which have give n the mand olin it s und ese rved reput a­tion of be ing a 'd inky' instrum ent for pa rlo r am usement on ly . In fact, the mand olins o f today embody possib il-

itic s und reamed of ten rears ago. Of cour se no instru­ment can eve r compare with the vio lin, yet e, ·en the world' s )jrCatcst l"iolin plarer s fail to thr ow a shad ow on the solo work of such mando lin \·irtu osi as Ab t. Pet tine Or Sie­gel. Th e st andard mandolin orc hestra of today is a very worthy mate for the v iolin o rche stra, :1s will be noted by t he inst rumentation of an orchestra which recendr plare d in Chicago (Row<len's Symp hony Orche stra ) : tweh-e 1s1 mando lins, ten 2d mand olins, four mand a las, six manJ o­cellos, t hree Rutes, one saxoph one, one clarinet , one ba s­soon, four mando-ba sses, tw o har p-guitars, four guitars, drums and traps.

"Another feature wortlw of no te in connection with the modern mand olin orc hCstra is the recent adoption b}' the mand olin fratern ity of the Unive rsal ~ o tation, whic h elimin ates the necessity of learning to rea d in the var ious clefs . . . ...... Th e reading has been co rrected so th at notes in all parts read a like in name. T his is hard for the mu sician to understand at present for some reason ­pro ba bly bcc'ause it is so simple."

SOME "PICKINGS " FROM THE SERENADERS (Co ,.tinutdf, 0111 poge3l )

tious number , namely, Op. 25, the Serenade for flute, violin and viola (a rran ged for violin, viola and 'cello'), Beethoven, which met with a most decided and generous approva l. Tht Plectrio now consists of Mr . Stellario Cambria , mando lin; J\Jr. Bertho ud, mandala ; ~ Ir. Foster, mand o--ccllo.

Drigo's charming Serenade was pla)•ed by !\Ir. Scheffel as a mando--ccllo solo, :Miss Laughto n accompany­ing at t he piano. T his is a number which should become betle r known amo ng mand olin orchestras, and would make a number 10 hil every time : It has been played by the famous R ussian Balalaika Orchestra with most te lling effect.

f..lr. Ste.Ilario Cambria gave two unaccompan icd!man­dolin solos- " \Vild Daisy 11 and " Invocat ion," his own com­positions. Mr. Cambria is a very b rilliant performe r, with a well-developed tcchnic, and plays with great taste and

The Chief Serenader, M r. William Lange, made a "s light" speech, afte r which he anno unced his closing

· numbe r-" Ca mpus Dreams" by Kenneth, and pla)•cd by a 11quartet and piano." T he players were M r. Foste r and Miss Ken neth , mandolins; [Mr . Kenneth , ocu ,,e mando la; M r. Berth oud, tenor mandola; M n . Kenneth , piano.

0 ~ Ju ne 29th, M r. A. L. Doug lass was the Chief Serenader. It was a some hot nif ht, but - well ! there

libraria n chose "Watch Hill" - that delightfully breezy spot, known only to a select few. Thi s brought refreshing "air s," thank s to 1\lr. Kenneth, the composer, which cooled off th e audience and perspired the players. Then to equa lize th ings, "S unny South Medley" by Lamp e was selected , followed by a littl e ~'lar ch of Stahl' s- " Southem Belle." "Bit s of Remick's Hi ts, No. 12 " by Lampe made people forget all about the weather, and brought the G. E. to a close.

Th e prog ram~ consisted of "Chan son Polonaise," \Vieniawski, played on the mandola by 1 lr. F. L. Berth oud, accompanied b}' Mrs . \V. D. Kenneth; "Voodoo Dance" by Gr iffin, an unaccompa nied banjo solo by ~Ir. Spaulding, also "Sweet and Low" as an encore ; and a man do-cello solo by . fr . Foster, with pi.1no accompaniment. As a closing number, the "quartet and piano," aforement ioned, was called upon, playing selections from Th, Chimu of No rma ndy and two encores. T hese pop ular players arc called upon at almost every Serenade , but, owing to their natural shyness and acute sense of modesty, the~· refuse to appear too frequentl y.

THE ARTIST AND AMATEU R (Continued f rom pafl 36)

tucked up his slcc,•c for the 19 14 game in Cb ·eland, and will at once begin to get the m ready to trum p the trick next Apri l.

TuE CADENU acknowledges the receipt of a pro­fessional photo of :Mr. S. N. Th yrring of Salt Lake City , a man who lo,·cs the banj o, plays it well and manages to make the two unite in financial ret urns. :\Ir. T hyrring was a pupil of Mr . Bcrth oldt of St. Louis, and is now a professional performer who is rn ro11tr the greater par-t of the time .

l\-liss Ethel Lucret ia Olcott is back in Los Angeles ·from her recent concert trip in the middle West. Miss Olcott gn c fourte en indiv idual concer is, played at :\Ir, Bickford's big concert in Cleveland and for :\Ir. Rowden's new.bo rn "Serenade" in Chicago. :\Jiss Olcott expresses herself delighted at meeting some or the leading lights of the B. ~I. G. world on her trip, and writ es that " nothing but the morgue" can possibly keep her from attending the Cleveland connnt ion. It is safe to say. ther efore, that this premier gu itari st will be ,·isible in Cleveland in April.

We do not mean to be undul y puffed with pride, but arc just a littl e bit "pe rked-up " in our feelings by a lette r from 1 lr. Mark A. Dunn of Perth , West Austra lia. 1\lr. Dunn is an enth usiastic instrument alist and a member of the " Perth Mand olin Team," a quartet of men- which will short ly be increa sed to a septet by the addition or three mand olins- assisted by :\ Ir. Dunn 's sister as pianist. He is also a member of the " Perth Banjo T eam"- and all " Cadc nzaites ." But the rea l whync ss of our " pcrkc<l­up" cond ition? It is becau se these people pti r largely from T m: CADENZ. \ pub lications. Ther specify "Salut d 'Amour" and " Ballet des F leurs" as two prime fa,·oritc s. wit h " Light Cava lry," selections from FauJt and "N an i Parade" runn ing a close second for popu larit ~·. Th e fol­lowing is a portio n of 1\.Jr. Dunn 's lett er, which: wc ta ke the liberty of quot ing, in that it carries much hidden significance. He writes: "Our (present ) instrumentation is ut, 2d and 3d mando lins, man do-bas s a nd piano. We transpou thr man dola part for the 3d mand olin when there is no pa rt for the latter." \\ "hen uni, ·crsal notation bCCOmcs univena l, such unnecessary labor and waste of time will have become a thing of t he past.
