M. O. Lownsdale Composes Original
Music for Event.
Two weeks from tomorrow evening the
first performance of Von Suppe's military
opera, "Fatlnltza" will take place at the
Marquam Theater, under the direction of
"William H. Boyer, and many people are
already making arrangements to keep the
evening free so that they may be present
on that occasion. Three performances
will be given in all. MaVch 7, 8 and 9. The
painting of the scenery, the costuming,
etc., are being looked after by Manager
George L. Baker, of Baker's Theater, and
the presentation of the opera will be first
class in overy particular on a par with
the high-grade productions which have
made Mr. Baker's name known among
theater-goers all over the Northwest. It
will also be a society event, and many
out-of-town people are already enquiring
when the tickets are to. go on sale. To
miss this event will be to miss one of
the best musical offerings ever given here.
The work of the chorus will be far above
that presented by ordinary musical com
edy people.
Among the principals who are to take
part are: Mrs. Rose Bloch Bauer, Mrs.
"Walter Reed, Millard O. Lownsdale. J. "W.
Belcher, Louis P. Bruce, Robert Rountrec,
S. Stuart McGulre. Rea Irvln, Milton
Frohman, Miss Marion Peters and Miss
Dot Bernard. Frederick Esmelton is stage
manager. And there are others. But thejr
names are locked In the secret bureau of
Manager Baker, of which he alone holds
the key. A rumor was current last week
that Mr. Baker was negotiating with
Edouard de Reszke to play in a part that
had hpen specially written for the Port
land performance of "Fatlnltza,". and i
musical enthusiast Immediately 'phoned
Mr. Baker. "Is it true that you have en
gaged De Reszke for 'Fatlnltza?' asked
the sweet soprano voice. At least, these
phone transmitter, and they got into Mr.'
taKers ear in mis snapo:
. is it true-urr-urr tnat you nave en
Irajred the rest 8f it for 'Fat-br-r-r-r gllck
Jg-Ug?"
"Choctaw," murmured Mr. Baker, and
it was only after an elaborate explanation
that It dawned upon him that he was sus
pected of having engaged the great
Edouard do Reszke, whose brother Jean
hskfd $r.000 a night as his slnjrlng fee
from Manager Conrled, and didn't get
it Mr. Baker strenuously denied the
rumor, and these past few days has been
kept busy stating that Portland singers
are good enough for -him.
The rehearsals last week both for prin
cipals and chorus have shown satisfactory
results, "but to hae -everything up to pro
fessional excellence will reqoulre harder
work yet and unremitting attention to the
Instructions of both Mr. Boyer and Mr.
Esmelton.
The principal male part In the opera
"Fatlnltza" is that of Count Timofey
Kantchukoff. Impersonated by Millard O.
Lownsdale, and he can be trusted to give
a performance equal to that of a profes
slonal. Many professionals on the stage
today do not possess tho gifted voice of
this favorite Oregon singer, nor his natu
ral talent for acting. Mr. Lownsdale's
voice Is a pure basso cantante that rar
est of voices, the singing bass. Thero Is
a peculiar anJ indefinable quality of
sympathy and richness In the basso can
tante that Is to be found in no other
voice, and Mr. Lownsdale possesses this
quality in a remarkable degree. But the
charm of his singing Is In his purity and
richness of tone, and lies In the fact that
he never forgets virility, manliness and
vigor. No matter how delicate the shad
lng of his music may be. it is never ef
feminate. It Is this thrilling fervor and
Oignlty that occasions the remark often
heard: "I'd go miles to hear Lownsdale
sing."
Mr. Lownsdale. whoso artistic character
work was the great feature of the pro
Curtlort of "Fatlnltza" In January, 1BS3,
will Interpolate at the forthcoming per
formances a portion of a scene, the
words and music of -which were written
by himself. There Is little In the part
of General Kantchukoff, as originally
written, and to meet the requests of many
friends who listened to the opera at the
former presentation. Mr. Lownsdale has
written a Tomanza and recitatives to be
introduced In the third act. This will be
an aTtracuve noveuy, ana wnue tne gen
cral public will have pleasant antlclpa
ik'ns of it. musicians will be specially
interested when they learn of the pro
posed Interpolation. The opinion has often
been expressed that Mr. Lownsdale's In
terpretatlon of the character of General
Kantchukoff cannot be excelled In any
hands, and the added attraction of his
romantic soene will make his performance
or the role one to be remembered.
A is wll known. Mr. Lownsdale Is
fruitgrower, and can seldom be prevailed
urn to sing in public. When the operatic
concert was recently given at the Empire
Theater, Mr. Lownsdale was suffering
frm an attack of la grippe and was not
satisfied with his singing on that occa
sion It Is because of this dissatisfaction
and of his determination to show that
farming and singing are not necessarily
antagonistic, that Mr. Lowiwdale has con-
at ted to anpeur In his great character
or General Kantchukoff.
In reply to the urgent demands or his
friends. Rea Irvln has consented to play
tho part of MuMapha, keeper of the
harem and of Izzet Pasha's four wives.
The part calls for lively comedy work
of the readiest kind, and Mr. Irvln can
ne trusted to respond. As Izzet Pasha,
ii-en nouniree is going to make a hit
It is also a groat comedy part and Mr.
Rountree Is so funny at rehearsals that
the other principals are often made help
less with laughter. He has a pleasing
natural toner voice.
BROWN PARK BAND.
Organizing for the Season With
Forty Musicians.
Fifty concerts with 40 musicians In the
band, a change to the international pitch
end with better music than ever, form
s-me of the ambitions this year
of
Brawn's Park Band that will soon com
mence operations for the season. Band
master Charles L Brown and Park Com
mjssloner J. D. Meyer will start early

next month to try to collect subscriptions
amounting to J7000. the sum necessary to
pay the expenses of the band for the en
tire season of free concerts for the people.
The composition of the band this year
will be as follows: One piccolo, one con
cert flute, one oboe, one E flat clarinet
eight B flat clarinets, one alto clarinet
one bass clarinet one; bassoon, four saxo
phones, five B-flat cornets, four French j
horns, three trombones, two baritones,
one E-flat bass, two double B-flat basses, i
one side drum, one bass drum, one tyro-
pan I. Brown's band this year Is modelled
after Sousa's band, and has the same In
struments as those used by the great two-
step king except his famous contra-bas-soon
valued for Its power to deepen tone
color. The decision to adopt the low con
cert or International pitch means that
Brown's band is to swing In line with the
great bands of this country that ten years
ago adopted thla pitch, which gives about
335 vibrations to the second. In popular
parlance, with the International pitch the
musicians win find the music easier to
play, and can better Increase tone qual
ity and color.
"When the band was organized last year.
all that Bandmaster Brown tried to do
was to get the men toj)lay well together,
and he succeeded beyond his most san
guine expectations. The band played ex
cellently In concerted music, and excelled
in soft passages, accents, pianos, fortes
and crescendOs, for 32 musicians. But
musical experts noticed that in tne line
of improvement the band would h!ve to
get more musicians, -and work to better
effects In expression, leading In crescen-
dos to a stirring, soul-pulsing fortissimo.
"With the band increased to 40 musicians,
the change in pitch, the fact that most
of the men played together all last season,
and the developed strength in the bass
section, it is an admitted fact that
brown's Park Band will be the premier
band over a wldo section o territory
during the ensuing season. It will bo a
band worth the financial support of the
people of Portland, and when Messrs.
Brown and Meyer start on their work of
obtaining the subscriptions from business
men and all classes of citizens generally,
the response ought to be a liberal one.
It Is remarkable, that although park
concerts were given by Brown's band
last year on both sides of the river al
ternately, about nine-tenths of the sub
scriptions came from the people on this
side of the river. The great residential
sections of the East Side, especially
around Hawthorne and Holladay Parks
where many of the concerts were given,
gave almost no response when asked for
subscriptions. This year there will be
two concerts alternately on both sides of
the river, with the usual Sunday-nf tor
noon concerts at the City Park. So peo
ple on the East Side ought to bear their
share of the expense. The educative
value of these concerts to Talse the stand
ard of music among the people, and afford
a harmless. Innocent means of recreation
when the work day Is over, cannot be
over estimated. At last year's concerts
many family parties attended throughout
the season, and at the Sunday afternoon
concerts Mayor Williams was a regular
visitor.
The Park Commission this year has de
elded to subscribe H000 as its share. That
only leaves JKXXj to collect throughout the
city. There ought to be enough civic
pride, and there Is, to give Portland
brass band second to none on the Pacific
Coast Think about the amount of your
subscription now.
