WUU the.
By RUBY JACKSON
It seems as though all the sym
phony orchestras cease broad
casting during the summer, but
thus is October, and many of them
are releasing their winter broad
casting schedules.
Starting its hundredth year of
performances is the New York
Philharmonic orchestra, which
boasts of being the oldest sym
phonic organization in the coun
try. In celebration, a special con
cert season has been planned, and
many famous conductors have
been contracted for broadcasts.
Broadcasts are heard over CBS
at 11 a.m. Sundays. Program
next week will feature such se
lections as Beethoven’s Seventh
symphony and the Nocturne Sfu5
Love Death from ‘‘Tristan and
Isolde.”
Guest Orchestras
Columbia is also inaugurating
a series of Tuesday afternoon
broadcasts to be heard at 4 p.m.
Concert orchestras from such in
stitutions as the Eastman School
of Music will be guests on the
program.
For Sunday evening listening
check the Ford Sunday evening
hour, CBS, 6-7 p.m., and a whole
string of fine programs of KSL.
These latter include choral mu
sic, orchestral music, and organ
concerts.
Tibbett Near
Tuesday night starts the NBC
symphony broadcasts, heard last
year under the direction of Tos
can.uni on Saturday nights. A se
ries of guest conductors will ap
pear with the orchestra this year.
Reports come to us that Law
rence Tibbett was at his best in
the recent performance of ‘‘Rigo
letto” in Portland. Too bad that
the operas were scheduled for
suet), a time as the middle of the
term. This prohibited the attend
ance of those students who
might have gone up.
It you are particularly inter
ested in modern music, I refer
you to an article in the American
Mercury for September entitled
“The Sterility of Modern Music."
Not too technical, and interest
ing.
Composition Classes
Putin Three Groups
f j iglish composition classes
have been divided into three
groups: the regular section, the
st:< section, and the English K
section.
T. e basis for the transfer was
the student's work during the
first two weeks of school. About
45 students were advanced into
the .star section and will complete
three terms, work in two terms,
enabling them to take an elective
instead of the regular spring term
composition.
