Music Notes
As not many in Medford or the
valley know of Mine. Tracy-Young's
residence here, the following inter
view may he of interest. Accepting
her cordial invitation to cull, the
writer "went aboard" ihc convenient
inliirtirlinn one rather warm . after
noon nnd journeyed to Wimer street,
Ashland. On Wimcr street one iin
ally conies to Wimcr Heights, nnd
climbs und climbs nnd climbs. Then,
turning into the shadiest lune where
it requires no stress of the imogin
oneself miles from
civilization, one comes shortly to the
home of Madame Tracy, Irom wnosc
window is a most inspiring view of
surrounding orchards and mountains.
The very delightful situation is a re
comense for all difficulties in
reaching it, nnd enhanced the pleas
ure of tho remainder of the after
noon not a little. A pupMt waiting
l., f..r n Inison ticriod, kindly
gave place, and I was led to o comfy
.i,;i nr.. ,i. ...... t .. '
program of five numbers, the oom
posers including Chopin, Liszt nnd
Rubenstein, afterward demonstrating
of technique nnj phrasing.
Madame Trucv was born in Wilton,
Me., near the home of Lillian Nor
dica, and is proud of her American
ism. She graduated from the New-
England Conservatory of Music in
Boston under J. C. I). Parker. Fames,
Farrar, Nordicn nnd many other fa
mous ones have been students nt that
Very splendid musical college. Later,
Leschetizky became her teacher and
remains her idol; and ideal, his
method the ''only one," in her opin
ion. With all her kindness, Madame
Tracy does not say very much about
her own accomplishments, but a few
notable occurrences mentioned were
as follows:
She has been the guest of and
played for Kaiser Wilholm three
times, the former czar of Russia
once, appeared with the Boston
Symphony Orchestra six times, also
with the Strauss orchestra in Vienna.
Toured with Otto Heggner six
months. She has played in all the
principal cities in Europe nnd was
contemplating a tour thru South
America, which was cancelled be
cause of war conditions, which seem
to hnve affected the musical artists
as much and more than some of the
matter of remunerative audiences.
Madame Tracy's 'particular "love"
and specialty is concert work with
orchestra, and Busoni is one of her
favorite pianists tho she speaks of
the wonderful staccato work of God-
owsky and of Emil Snucr of Vienna
and his progressive piano composi
tions so helpful for students. Like
her lifelong friend, the late Carrono,
Mudarae Tracy does not enre a great
deal for the very modern music, the
old masters always holding firsl
place in her heurt, altho recognizing
the excellence of modern Russian and
American composes She speaks
also of Cesar Franc as a composer.
Madame Tracy is the only woman
pianist wlu has played his "Sym
phonic Poems." She likens Frunc
to Bach. Let us be grateful again
for our Rogue river apples. They
have been responsible for the acquis
it ion 'of many splendid citizens and
distinguished personalities. Madame
Tracy is no exception. It is because
of an orchard she is among us. For
how long she does not know, and the
indefinitcness of her residence here
is pleasant as far as we are con
cerned. , ' . ,
With many duties and many hours'
practice daily; she yet finds time for
a few students. The truly great ar
tists are those who give of their own
knowledge and experience, assistoncc
nnd encouragement to the novice and
amateur, as so many hnvo done and
are doing. Those who achieve know
of the wistful yearning, the strug
gle, the stupendous incentive to ent
denvor in a little interest tuken by
those who have "arrived," and the
deep, deep gratitude felt by most stu
dents to the dear instructor, be it
Hcrr, Signor, Mudiune or Mr.
An event which mny be called mu-
sicnl, sociul or patriotic is the con
cert given in the near future by the
Soldiers' Auxiliary under the man
agement of the president, Jeanne
Lnnctot Brackinreed. No efforts arc
being spared to make the productipn
interesting and enjoyable. Both nr
tistie nnd original, with tho best tal
ent obtainable, and given for such n
worthy cause, the entertainment will
be well worth the support ot the pub
lic, which it will doubtless receive.
Among those to be featured are Miss
Kutherine Swem, dnnsenso; Irene
Hampton Isaacs, pinnistc; Miss Adelc
Hrniilt, dramatic soprano, and Mr.
William Vowter, baritone soloist.
Miss Swem will -lie remembered 1'or
her solo dunces nt various times in
the (Mist. For this occasion she will
havo the assistance of Thomas Swem
of . New York in the designing of n
special background, nnd the act
promises to be unusually beautiful.
Irene Hampton Isnnes will be heard
in two masterpieces for the piano, the
second number with orchestral nc
companimcnt as given by Mrs.
Isnncs on tour the past season. Miss
Brnult hus studied under competent
teuchers while at Reed college, where
she was soprano soloist during her
junior nnd senior years, and chosen
by the music conimitteo ot tho col
lege to bo soloist ut the commence
ment concert this spring. Mine
Jeanne Jornelli wns one of Miss
Brnult's instructors, and Dr. Mux
dishing her teacher in interpretii,
lion. At present Miss Bruult is a pu
pil of George Andrews.
William Vawter has been a favor
itc since his very first appearance
and so continues. Having had the
advantage of instruction in various
cities and in the home town, and pos
sessing a happy combination of tal
ent, voice and personality, the prom
ising young buritonc is always a de
light to hear.
Other fcutiircs of the program arc
not to be disclosed at present, with
the exception of a choral number
-ung by the brnvc boys of Company
C under the direction of Ucorge An
drews. t t .

TO BE GRACEFUL IN
LESSON FROM DOROTHY DICKSON
By 1DAH McGLO.NB GlfiSON;
"Dorothy Dickson has the delicate
ly modest grace of the mid-Vlctorlan
period combined with tho daring of
1917," said the man who had gone
with me to the last edition of tho Fol
lies. .' ;
There Is only one recipe for grace
and that Is tho perfect mechanical
rhythm of the body combined with
perfect unconsciousness of self. To

reopen his studio about 'October 1.
Miss Horn Welch and her sister.
Mrs. John Gallagher, entertained in-
tomially Tuesday afternoon for their
cousin, Mrs. Herbert Clarke, a grad
uate of the Obcrlin Conservatory of
Music, and an accomplished music
ian. Mrs. Clarke was Miss Eleanor
Merrill of Spokane.
Miss Estcllo Wcnlwprth, soprano,
recently sang Aidu, ono of her mosl
fuinous roles, at Knvinin Park, Chi
cago, ns guest-artist. Quoting again
from Musical America: "The middle
and upper part of her register are
delicately beuutiful, and the lower
tones are of rich quality. In the soft
passages, us in '0 Putria Mia,' her
tones were voluptuously lovely und
of fine velvety texture." Following
the custom of many stars, Miss
Wentworth loured last season on the
Orphciim cireuil, Brs. Irene Isaacs
being her ni'coiupnniste and assisting
urtiste.
Clnrcnco Kellogg, a former pian
ist and teacher of Medford, is pro
gressing steadily in his chosen pro
fession in'I.OS Angeles. Mr. Kellogg

prominent vocal teachers in the city.

A musieul soiree wns held Friday
afternoon nt the home of Mr. und
nirs. . vuus jiecKwitli on King s
Highway, when their guests were
most delightfully entertained by Miss
Ucmcntinc Kellogg, n pianist of dis
tinguished gifts. Miss Kellogg, who
was a guest at the Carlton home, is
a resident of East Orange, N. J.
Those fortunate enough to hear her
were most enthusiastic in their ap
preciation of her talent und ability.
It will he very pleasant news for
musieul circles of Medford and th
Hoguo River valley to learn that Miss
Horn Grey hus been prevailed upon
by her many friends nnd admirers to
remain in Medford for the coming
yeur instead of returning to New
York as she had originally planned
It will bo remembered that Miss Grey
was one of our principal piunists
and teachers a few years ago. She
left hero for New York four years
ago with the intention of broadening
her musical vision nnd milking her
self efficient in her chosen line. I)ur
ing this period she studied with the
very best musters to be found in tin
metropolis, including the celebrated
teacher and composer, Jean Paul
Kiirstcincr.
She also mude quite n reputation
accompanying for many of the pro
fessional singers in the cast, also
studied the grand 0cros under (he
well known 0xrutii' directors. Miss
Grey gave many recitals at and about
New York on the pipe organ ns well
as piano.
This experience nnd study, to,
gcthcr with the opportunity of hear
ing all there wns good in music and
breathing nothing but the musical at
mosphere for four years has brought
her home to us a well-rounded-out
nnd leu musician. From this on she
will have her studios in the George
Andrews suits in tho St. Mark's
building.
