fBXT month th Portland Orches
tral aocletr wilt iv its first con
cert ct th third sesson.. Tb
vent will be looked forward to
with much Interest by those who
fcfc watched its splendid progress.
wiutara Wallace uranam, conauctor,
tates that, while the concert is booked
arller this season than usual, the pro
Vram will be well prepared, for several
WOk to be presented, were rehearsed
last season after the clowinK concert.
The Portland Orchestral society is a
rmphony orchestra, composed of ac-
. amnllnhit mitanri who aturiv and
Xollow raualo largely for the love -of the
Art, or students who desire to fain ex
perience in ensemMe work. This makes
it an exceedingly important factor in
the local field of music, and, for that
- reason, if for no other, the orchestra
should have the strongest support pos
sible from every source.
So far the membership has been
about y; but it is expected before the
end of the season to have this number
augmented to at least 75. ' This is be
lieved possible, for there are many per
formers in the city not affiliated with
any permanent organization who would
prove valuable material to the orches
tra, while at the same time such mem
bership would give them experience not
obtainable through any other medium.
Rehearsals are held regularly every
Tuesday night io Graves' hall. Fourth
atreet. between Morrison and Alder,
where any one wishing to participate
may apply for membership. The or
chestra la composed of men and women,
and offers opportunities not only for
String Instruments, but wood, wind,
bras and percussion as well.
Organizations of this kind in the
large musical centers of the United
States and Europe have in several In
stances developed to a point where
they rival the regular symphony or-
Viaifr-ta in aKIlltj, nnrl nnnnlftrltv
though, from a business standpoint,
they do not figure a competitors.
The Portland Grand Opera associa
tion, at Its meeting held Wednesday
evening, decided to take on new life,
and this will be welcome news to ar
dent advocates of local grand opera.
Officers were elected for the year, and
Were splendidly chosen, for they are en
thusiasts, who see hope ahead.
Jacob Kancler, secretary of the civic
bureau of the Portland Chamber of
w Commerce, was elected president; Mrs.
Warren E. Thorn a, vice-president : Karl
Herbrlog, secretary, and J. Koss Fargo,
treasurer. The next meeting will be
held Tuesday night In the rooms of the
Portland Chamber of Commerce, Ore
gon building. Fifth and Oak streets.
Plans for. the season were discussed
and sentiment was strongly in favor of
a whole Week of opera, with two or
three productions. This, it was pointed
out, would reduce the cost of each per
formance and permit lower prices than
possible with but one performance.
Mr. Kansler was not at the meeting,
but when Informed of his election ac
cepted with the Intention of doing his
ery beRt. for he believes in local opera.
"Portland will enter upon its second
eason of local grand opera with un
. . ...v,,.ij.,vt " ma Mr Kanzler.
"For several years the city has been in
possession of the detached elements
necessary for the presentation of grand
opera, Its symphony orchestra, a score
or more of voices qualified to sing lead
ing roles, conductors of experience and
ability, and an abundance of good voices
for superb chorus worn.
"It was only a matter of assembling
and organizing this talent, which was
so successfully done by a group of pub
lic spirited citizens last winter, result
ing In the formation of the Portland
Grand Opera association.
"Other coast cities have for several
years had local grand opera associa
tions why should not Portland be
equally aggressive?
. "In order to attain leadership among
the cities of the Pacific coast, Portland
must lay plans for large growth In art
'. and education, as weU as In industries
and commerce. The young man who
knows musto and literature as well as
the Intrlnslo merit of hia wares is
doubly equipped to win out In the mar
kets of the world.
"How many young men and women
will be attracted to Portland from the
Pacific northwest will be hard to de
terminebut that the existence of local
rron nirn will brln many, there is
no doubt. The drawing power of a cul
tural city is known to us all.
'Toung lingers of aspiration and
ability must have the opportunity to
try out their voices In opera. When .t
cannot be done in Portland, they neces
sarily go elsewhere. The Portland
Grand Onera association will fill this
rreat need. Apart from any ether con
ilderation. It Is good business for every
citizen of Portland to give this move
ment strong ana enummu u4'-

David Blspham, the American bari
tone, who believes in singing so that
the text may be understood, in an in
terview with a Musical American cor
respondent, adds his bit to the cam
paign for local opera companies in the
United States. Blspham does not say
anything new, he simply reiterates
what others have said, but It all helps.
"There should be local opera com
panies in every community in this
country," he said, "Just as in Europe.
There should be local chorus, orchestra
and soloists, and for Important occa
sions, stars from New York or other
large centers should be guest artists in
the principal roles. Is not this custom
of securing famous singers prevalent
In our festivals, when oratorios and
concerts are given? Why can It not
apply to opera as well?
"I believe that the Metropolitan
Opera company, with Its tremendous
Influence, should foster these com
panies, not financially, but by keeping
an attentive eye upon he talent that
Is developed In each "center. There
should be an agreement by which the
Metropolitan could draw upon the best
material for Its minor roles, and in ex
treme cases for its principal parts.
This would eliminate the necessity of
looking to Europe to supply us with
artists.
"There is a way, however. In which
Europe can assist us and we Europe,"
continued Mr. Blspham, "that Is by a
system of reciprocity, similar to tbe
exchange professors in the colleges.
We could send our best talent to Eu
rope with letters of Introduction to the
Impresarios, so that the scope and ex
perience of our own singers might be
enlarged. Again, singers could come
from abroad to us, and appear as guest
artists In any of our local opera
houses."

in Japan." Prior to the war such in
struments would have been labeled
"made in Germany," for with the Ger
mans In the field the Japanese Instru
ment makers found it hard to get into
this field, despite their cleverness at
imitating. The workmanship on the
violins is such, however, that but for
the label, one would not suspect their
manufacture by men or perhaps
women, of a nation that knows the vio
lin largely as an Instrument with four
strings, played by foreigners. It Is
not at all Improbable that the Japanese
makers have managed to import some
experts from Germany to supervise
the work until the natives absorb ttte
secrets. Japanese began manufactur
ing violins before the war, but not
until Germany was fenced in by tho
iron ring of the allies did their product
enter prominently In this or the great
majority of other markets.
The Chehalls Mate ihorus club held
Its first meeting in the parish house
on the evening of September -26. About
27 young men were on hand, which
was considered an unusually good
showing for the first meeting. This
did not Include several who were in
the chorus last year that will join
next week, and it is expected that the
club this year will have at least 35
members.
Last year the Chehalls male chorus
enjoyed a very successful season In
spite of the fact that they were not
organized until in February.
The executive committee prepared a
budget of expenses for the coming
year and mapped out a plan which is
expected will make the organization
self-supporting. It is planned to give
three or four concerts during the sea
son with artists to assist, and sell
season tickets to associate members.
W. B. Taylor is president, Professor
C. S, Bond, vice president, and V. R.
Lee, secretary treasurer. These three
form the executive committee. Mrs. J.
V. Kldd of Seattle Is director. Mrs.
Kidd organized the chorus last season.
The Monday Musical club Is pleased
to announoe to Its members that a con
cert recital will be given Monday, Oc
tober 16, at S o'clock at Eller's hall,
when two of Portland's most popular
artists will appear on the program.
Rose Ooursen-Reed will give a group
of numbers. Mr Reed always receives
an ovation, whenever and wherever she
appears. She has a large number of
warm personal friends in the club, In
addition to those who do not know her
personally, but admire her for her beau
tiful voice. Waldemar Llnd, who is
equally known, has the larger part of
the program. It Is only necessary to
mention these two names to tell the
splendid quality of the offering of the
club at this concert. The program will
begin promptly on time. Mr. Llnd's
numbers are concerto for two violins
and piano (J. S. Bach), aria on the G
string (J. S. Bach), prelude and fuse
in G minor (J. S. Bach). Albert Creitz
will play the second violin and Eldridge
Trayle will be at the piano. Mrs.
Reed's numbers will be "Im Herbsl"
(Franz), "Sals-tu". (Fontenailles),
"Loveliest of Trees" (Peel), to words
from Housman's "Songs of a Shrop
shire Lad" (Snow), sung In Norwegian
fRlBTird Lie). "Sweetheart" (Strick
land). Luclen E. Becker will play the
accompaniments for Mrs. Reed.
Mrs. Victor Marden, a former Port
land musician, is president of the new
Afternoon Muslcaf club which was re
cently organized In The Dalles. The
club Includes 85 prominent musicians
of that city, all of whom are enthu
siastically Interested in the 'work of
the club. The club fills the vacancy
left in musical circles by the disorgan
ization of the old Spinnet club of whlcn
organization Mrs. Marden was' also
president. A course of study has been
mapped out which will b'e followed this
winter. The club will first take up
piano study, later, perhaps, also
studying choral work. Mrs. Marden
will be remembered in Portland as
Mrs. Kate Steeves, a former instructor
in the Portland schools. She is prom
inent In musical circles In The Dalles.
The MacDawell club opened its third

Benson hotel with a brilliant program
consisting of a group of piano solos

Portland is to have a new musical
organization, a ladies' chorus of pos
sibly 75 voices. It is hoped to make
It as prominent a factor in the city's
musical life as is the Apollo club o
male voices.
The idea was broached at the Mac
Dowell club meeting Tuesday after
noon and Immediately met enthusl
astlo response. So keen Indeed was the
interest that it was decided to hold
meeting at the residence of Mrs.
Thomas Carrick Burke, 1014 Thurman

; The most Important matters Slm
' cussed, . were the proposed teachers'
registration bill, which will probably
be placed before the state legislature
again, as drafted by F. W. Goodrich,
and a suggestion to amend tbe by
laws so m to admit associate mem
bers. t
The Goodrich bill. Before the legis
lature last session, failed to gain rec
ognition, but hope is stQl held out
that It will eventually be passed. The
suggestion to admit associate mem
bers was strongly indorsed. Entitled
to associate membership would be
persons especially Interested in mil
ters musical although not 'following'
the profession of teaching.
"A rood musician only knows one
kind of Intonation the right kind,"
writes a correspondent. "He does not
know that there are four 'correct' ways
of playing or singing in tune. If aU
musio consisted of but the major tonlo
chords one might grant that the se
ductive smoothness of the 'perfect
third' were preferable to the 'imperfect
consonance' used by the musicians. But
musio is written in minor as well as
in major and there be other than tonic
chords.
"The great teachers vocal as well
as Instrumental are constantly warn
ing us to make our majors major and
our minors minor; to make our sharps
sharper, our Tlats natter.
"Krelsler and Payson omplaln of
the piano's Imperfections. Krelsler,
that sharp Is not sharp enough; Pay
son, that 'the major thirds are three
fifths of a comma sharp' which
means that F sharp Is too sharp for
him.
"The next time you hear a man.
whomyou know to be possessed of
brains and heart and talent, and In
spite of all these, playlns consistently
out ' of tune, especially in his double
Stops, ask yourself if his majors are
not too much like minors and his
minors too much like majors. If that
be your impression, you may be sure
he has been bitten by the 'pure third'
bug."

In speaking before the State Federa
tion of Women's clubs at Seaside Tues
day aCternoon, Waldemar Lind, associ
ate conductor of the Portland Sym
phony Orchestra, reviewed the history
of symphony orchestras in the United
States, and Incidentally ceiled attention
to the fact some of the now well estab
lished' organizations, such as the New
York Phllharmonio society, were organ
ized along the lines upon which the
Portland orchestra Is now conducted,
having at times as many as five asso
ciate conductors, all chosen from the
membership, Theodore Thomas was
at that time among the first violins,
but was not conducting. It finally
dwindled down to two conductors, The
odore Eisfelt and Carl Bergmann, both
of whom later made way for Theodore
Thomas, who conducted for 12 years.
He pointed out the far reaching ef
fect of music on children, and said that
the name of the Portland Symphony
Orchestra Is now a byword in Portland
homes.
