Music Groups bid
For Salem's
Favor
An Interesting Indication as
to the progress made by Salem
la the eyes of the musical world
outside of Salem is toe tact mat
many out of town music organ
isations hare been making deter
mined efforts to secure engage
ments tn Salem during the win
ter months.
Among these organisations
has been the Seattle symphony
orchestra led by Krueger; the
Portland symphony, led by Van
Hoogstraten; the Cornish trio
from Cornish- school of art, thea
tre and dance; the Portland
symphony Quartet; and other
solo artists who would be glad
to come to Salem.
Perhaps no little of this inter
est Is due to the attention that
Salem has attracted , nationally
In tts development of music
week daring the annual celebra
tion ot this week. . National
magaslnes hare carried accounts
t tb detailed efforts made by
Bale-m In carrying out the spirit
ot musle week. Last year espe
cially were there programs which
could bear out the idea that Sa
lem has talent and appreciation
In the field of music.
For years the eomplalnt has
been that Salem was sluggish In
musle appreciation in general,
and nnloyal to Its own perform
ers. However that may be, cer
tain It is that for the last year
there has been kept appreciation
and . excellent support for the
really good things presented on
musical programs. Salem Is
aonesi in irowmag u wv mu
sic and It is not slow in show
ing Its disapproval of Inferior
talent.
One of the . developments 01
last year which won prolonged
applause and caused much com
ment following its appearance
was the junior symphony de
veloped by William Wallace Gra
ham for one special appearance
during the music week pro
grams. The number of performers
was small, the time of practice
had to be short and all told the
work presented had to be a bit
hasty yet it was splendidly done.
There was a plea made then that
the group be assembled this fall
and work on a Junior symphony
for Salem be commenced. Were
this done it would be the second
ef its kind in Oregon; the other
Is In Portland.
Now work has been actively
started on this splendid Idea.
William McGilchrist, Sr., spoke
before the Rotarlans Wednesday
on the subject of support for
this group. Names are being
gathered of those interested In
supporting such an organization.
Plans are being made tor com
mittees to take care ef the work
of organization. It is suggested
that only two concerts be given
during the year. Children should
be' drawn from the studios of all
teachers of Salem who instruct
for symphony instruments.
While no one has been definite
ly approached to take the direc
torship, William Wallace Gra
ham has bern suggested for the
place in as much as he had such
excellent results last spring and
under such trying circumstances.
With a junior symphony ac
complished for Salem, with the
Susie Fennel Pipes chamber
music quartet giving three con
certs, and with the Salem Mac
Dowell club, the Madril inh
the Men's civic chorus, the Schu
berts, the Salem Choral society,
and a grand program by the
President's Own band from
Washington. D. C, giving one
concert in October it would ap
pear that music will be coming
close to its own place for this
winter. There will be other
concerts not yet ready to an
nounce which will add still more
to the charm of the music pro
gram for the winter.
