That music by American composers,
and particularly Pacific Coast compos
ers, should be rendered occasionally at
Portland concerts formed the basis of
discussion at the last luncheon and
meeting of the Portland Musicians
Club, held at the Portland Hotel; and
as the outcome of the discussion it ia
likely that Rev. Father Dominic's over
ture. "The Call of the West," will nnd
a place soon on one of the programmes
of the Portland Symphony Orchestra.
In the absence of the president. W.
Glfford Nash, the meeting was In
charge of K. W. Goodrich. Daniel H.
Wilson opened the discussion on
"American Composers" and several
other speakers made a strong plea for
the recognition of the scheme. it was
then suggested that one of the orches
tral compositions of the priest-musician.
Rev. Father Dominic. O. S. B.. of
Mount Angel. Or, should find a place
on a programme of the Portland Sym
phony Orchestra and the proposal was
heartily supported. The overture in
question is a magnificent modern com
position, scored for a lafge orchestra,
and is dedicated to "the pioneers of the
West"
