RNEST SCHRLLINQ has caused a
good deal of comment in Chi
, cago recently by the Introduction
of two works of his own which.
according to Brio te Tamarter
nno passes some very inteijigertt opln,
Jonsf are far above the ordinarv. If
this prove to be the case the launching
. nf these compositions marks a momon.

Krnest Scheiling, whose name In the
jiianisnc woritt is well enough known
....to need no further comment, has ap-
Plied practically all the talk about
. American music. Out of the complaint
, that there Is none he has evolved a
- work to which ha has tried to give a
, iianonai cnaracier, a national signifl
cnc and Individuality. He began with
a concerto, but he found the limitations
of the rulea too narrow for him and
many ne orancnea out in his own way
. - and called the', wnrlr m faniu.tlfi .nil.
Mr. te Lamarter sayat the composer
no uvunu nimsen oy none er tne con
ventional rulea and has cultivated his
- own originality of expression without
owoming oixarre. The ' score la com
plicated and difficult, the critic writes
ana interesting at every moment. The

allera In our music; to tell of the mix
ture of all schools that enter Into the
.-work of the few American composers
that have accomplished anything; and
then when the time comes that some
thing characteristic is produced, to re
fuse to consider- It , because it deals
with subjects too familiar. Tea, It has
. often been - done badly, "but Ernest
Kchelling's stand in the; musical world
is such that lie should be accorded , a
hearing at least. He is hardly the man
who would compose such a work merely
to play to th popular favor. Rather
would he do It from a consciousness
that such music was lacking; that
America neeaea it ana needed a com
poser to undertake the task.
The other work of Scheiling which
waa presented at the name concert, was
.named "The Sea." It Is, so far as I
an Judge from the criticisms, an im
itative work and Is-Infused with color
and power. De Lamarter names it one
of the masterpieces of a half centurv.
He says that as music it is a new the
ology something different, ,and all of
lis own. language.
