Strenuous Life
Musician s Life Is No Bowl of Cherries
i By MAXINE BUREN '
:..V;--v.., .::. .- ,v.,, - : ----fet ?,! -:r
.The comparatively regulated life ;of an C average business
, man or woman must look mighty good, to the top-notch musi
cian, even though there are many compensations for "fame.
Touring the continent seems to be one long series of being at
one's best before the adnhing public,! put hiving to take one's
place as a common citizen on trains and at dining places. .
Discussing the matter of great artists with Mr. William Bass,
husband and tour manager of
Helen Traubel and with Mr. Da
vid Ferguson, Pacific coast rep- ;
resentative of. Columbia Con
certs, which books the artists :
for the Community Concert as-1
sociation, we learned some in- 'f
teres ting things about artists on
tour. Many of the facts were '
entirely new, other we vaguely ;
knew,1 but found confirmation
during our discussions with these '
men who are so closely connec
ted with the life of great ar
tists. - I?-"
V Artists, especially singers must
be at their . best, at every con
cert, and often fatigue or slight'
cold may - threaten the success
of a program. The singer must ;
be . sparkling. Jive and warm vto
her audience. She must be at
her best technically even though ':
she. may have been on the train
for a night or two, and may have
gone from sea level to high al-
titude within - a few hours. If
a musician - seems temperamen-
tal on tour, it might be just'
plain, old fashioned fatigtte that'
puts the nerves on edge. '
According to Mr. Bass and
Mr. Coenraad Bos, the acompa
nist, Miss Traubel is even tem
pered and seldom shows signs
of nerves. Even after a hard trip
and through a strenuous sched-:
uie, she remains calm and un
worried. Host concert musicians are
good troupers, says Mr. Fergu
son. They find great stimulation
in an appreciative audience and
give much more to those Who
are enjoying them. The musician
can feel the audience's opinion
of him, (a really appreciative
group usually brings forth the
best in an artist i i
Miss Traubel's party includ
ed her husband, herself and the
acompanist She must- get her
self ready for the concert; fix'
her own hair and take care of
serioos; sad by
...ftJ
her clothes-r-then, sing a hard
and exhausting program. Stor
ies about her likes in food are
true. She eats a large meal af
ter the, concert, for she must
gain back , the energy given out
in her: singing.
According to Mr. Bass, they
have had no trouble getting train
reservations,1, because they are
made j months ahead, but it is
necessary to carry a large lunch
baskeC with! thermos bottle for
coffee so meals may; be regu
lar and ample to keep the sing
er in good health. I -
Miss Traubel declined an in
vitation forentertainment after
the concert: for like most musi
cians, I she Wants to , eat a big
meal :and relax after her pro-
; graxril ;.- ' $ ...... : ;i 4 '.
i When asked if radio breadcast-
ing Is' any simpler than concert-
izing,- Mr. Bass said it might be,
.but Miss TraubeT has' gone 'clear
across;, the continent to sing a
mere Jthree ;Songs in a program.
They will spend the summer near
Hollywood, Mr. Bass saioV with
Miss Traubel singing on the ra
dio tvjrice during that period, for
programs originating in the west.
Then there's the matter of
compensation. Many artists have
givenj up touring entirely,, trav
eling conditions are difficult, and
if they are in the high income
brackets, they pay approximate
ly 90 per cent of their net Income
to Uncle Sam! v i '
