'" , - I ' A- B., dean of the school of music, is, with his 12 assistants, doing a bio; work for the state. He is not only busy every day but in the evenings as well. He is director of the men's glee club. of the girls' glee club, of the Eugene Philharmonic Chorus of 125 mixed voices, of the choir which sings at vesper services Sundays, and is also the head of the vocal department. This vesper choir recently gave a splendid performance of the St. Cecelia Mass (Gounod). - "At the head of the piano department Is Jonn J. Landsbury, Mus. B., 11 us. Dr., who is also head of the classes in har mony, etc. I had the pleasure of hav ing Mr. Landsbury as my accompanist in Eugene, at my request, having heard of his splendid musicianship from a fellow musician who knew him In the East. He is a finished artist and it was a plea'sure to sing with him. Both Mrs. Chapman 'and myself were enthusiastic about the work of the university or chestra, which played for the Philhar monic Society's production of the 'Rose Maiden.' This orchestra had been trained by Miss "Winifred Forbes, head of the violin department in the uni versity, and had as accompanist. Miss Ruth Davis, Mus. B., one of Mr. Lands bury's assistants. Miss Forbes has cer tainly made a name for herBelf in the work of her orchesy-a. They played with the enthusiasm "of youth and the predominance of stringed instruments gave a soft, rich quality, especially in the pianissimo passages. The school of music is greatly interested in the historical pageant which is to be given by the unniversity in June. The music for this pageant will be written by members of the faculty, and musicians throughout the state, and will be pro duced under the direction of the school of music." THE Apollo Club male chorus man agement has decided on Tuesday night. February 8, as the date for the club's next concert at the Hellig Thrater. with Miss Myrtle Ashby, lyric soprano, as the assisting soloist. Among the active members of the club the opinion seems to be that This forthcoming concert will be fully up to any previous concert, both In the quality of work to be done by the club and in the interesting variety of num bers to be offered. With the one ex ception of Grieg's "Landslghting" twhlch the club sang several years ago), all the selections are new to Port land audiences. Among other chorus compositions to appear upon the programme are: "Carpathian Folk Song" (Stair), which fairly burns with its Slavic fire and Intensity; "Wake. Miss Lindy" (War ner), an irresistible negro love song, which is even better than "Mammy's Lullaby" (so popular at the last con cert): the well-known and beloved "Schubert's Serenade": a group of two short numbers, "Oft in the Stilly Night" and "Harp of Turn." In which the club will supply a beautiful humming ac companiment to the baritone solo voice. .Miss Myrtle Ashby. lyric soprano, will make her initial appearance before a Portland audience with the Apollo Club as sponsor. Miss Ashby's voice and art are well and favorably known to Chicago music-lovers. Following her recent concert appearance In Se attle, it was conceded that she has most remarkable voice, coupled with her ability to so beautifully and artistic ally interpret her numbers as to cap tivate her audience. She will con tribute two numbers to the Apollo pro gramme, one aria and a group ot charming folk songs. IK lillKORZA MNGS FEB. .

Hoyt newly-elected president of the Portland Opera Company, which holds meeting at the Public Library, Tuesday night at 8 o'clock. Miss Anna Fitziu, soprano, a new prima donna, stars at the Metropolitan Grand Orepa House. New York City, in the Spanish opera "Goyescas." Mrs. Herman A. Politz soprano: will be presented in a students' recital by Mrs. Rose Coursen Reed, at the Heilig Theater, in March. Miss Mary Schulta will be vio lin soloist at the concert of the Portland Amateur Orchestral So ciety, Masonic Temple Audito rium. February 10. fTtTK Ml SK'IA.NS COXFEH. At the last meeting of the Portland Musicians' Club preliminary action was taken looking to the formation of an Oregon Mate music teachers associa tion. Nearly all of the other "Western states have similar associations, and It Is felt that Oregon should be among the num ber. The aim will be to foster a closer relationship among the teachers of ail parts of the state, extend the apprecla tion of and interest in music by the general public, provide a wider field for both professional and amateur mu sical performances and generally ad vance the cause of music and musi clans. A committee, of which John Claire Monteith was made chairman, was ap pointed to address letters of inquiry to teachers throughout Oregon, seeking to arouse their Interest and co-opera tion In the movement. The particular wish of the Musicians' Club is to come more closely Into con tact and relation with the musicians located outside of Portland and form a bond of fellowship that will be help ful to all. Geographical conditions have served to divide the musicians of Ore gon into small groups, and with greatly Improved means of communication it is hoped this may be changed to build up a strong state society. The Northwest Music Teachers' Asso ciation, which has heretofore claimed all the energies that were given by Oregon musicians to such matters, has suspended its activities. It was found that the dlstunces which must be trav eled were so great that It was Impossi ble to secure the attendance necessary to accomplish the desired results. Washington State has a thriving young association to take its place, and it is considered that Oregon must also- have one of its own. "ROMEO AD JULIET LOSS tiOO. It Is announced that the deficit on the three recent performances of the Gounod opera. "Romeo and Juliet," at the Heilig, amounts to about $600. Ac counts of receipts and expenditures have not yet been balanced, so the ex act amount ot the deficit cannot be de termined at this writing, but will be known in a day or two. Singers who took part In the operatic productions wish to give another per formance In about three weeks' time at the Hellig to get enough money In the box office not only to pay the $600 deficit, but to give the Baby Home a handsome contribution if the pub lic will this time support the venture. It Is hoped that the opera will be produced oa this occasion without prac tically any expense. No singer, whether principal or chorus member will (this time) be paid one cent for his or her services. - Madame Jeanne Jomelli will donate her services to sing the part of Juliet at this benefit performance, if none of her other professional engagements in terfere, said Orrln Backus, manager for Madame Jomelli, last Friday. The manager of the Heilig Theater says that the use of the theater will be tendered free of charge, except that the expense of heating, electricity, etc., would have to be paid, a sum of about 175. Services of the ushers would be donated. The stage employes of the Hellig will meet the officials of their trade union February 8 to ask permis sion to donate their services. The mu slcians in the orchestra will ask their trade union tomorrow night for permis. sion to donate their services. It ii promised that no charge will be made for the use of stage costumes. ,The committee in charge of the de tails of. this benefit performance will be composed entirely of business men. and several members of the Chamber of Commerce have promised to assist on this-committee. A plan is being talked of to choose a Portland soprano to be understudy of "Juliet," so that on the date of the benefit performance if Madame Jo melli cannot find it convenient to be present the part of "Juliet" will be represented. No one has been selected as yet as this understudy. All expenditures of the recent pro duction of "Romeo and Juliet" have been paid, it is stated, by the use of a sum of borrowed money. HOME OPERA PLANNED. The Portland Opera Company has been launched, and plans are now In process of consummation to place It on a successful business and artistic oasis. Another meeting of the opera com pany, composed entirely of Portland musicians, will be held at the Portland Library Tuesday night. A wise choice has been made of Ralph W. Hoyt as president. Mr. Hoyt is an educated musician and also au experienced business man.

UNIVERSITY -At SIC LA I'D ED. John Claire Monteith, who returned recently fcem filling a professional en gagement in Eugene, Or., says he has come back with a feeling of great sat isfaction over the condition of the growth of musical affairs in the State University.
