Stravinsky and Schoenberg Not Latest Words in Music New York (U.R) If you think that Stravinsky is .modern and Schoenberg is the last word in music, you are considerably off the vanguard beam. Otherwise you would know that atonality is on its way out and percussion ism cajoles the progressive ear. Percussionism won official rec ognition in New York by the traditional supporter of artistic revolutions: the Junior Council of the Museum of Modern Art, headed by Mrs. John D. Rocke feller HI. . The council presented this latest musical vanguard in a con cert 'entitled "Music for Percus sion" a kind of free-for-all for xylophones, tympanies, . trum pets, percussions, bongos and wood blocks. Among the works presented were a Suite for Tym pani by Elliott Carter, "Ritmo Jondo" for percussion, clarinet, tympani, trumpet and handlap pers by Carlos Surinach and a Sonata for Piano, Tympani, Xylophone and Percussion by Peggy Glanville-Hicks. To use the quip of an inveterate punster: "the percussion' concert was a real hit." . "Who are the percussionists and what do they want?" Peggy Glanville-Hicks was asked after the hitting, smacking, banging and groaning was over.

Tuesday, August 19, 1952 'V itf 'mum" - a i wg-8 im a "Our movement was initiated 20 years ago by Henry Cowell and Edgard Varese" said the young composer and music critic. ."Paul Bowles, Lou .Harrison, John Cage, Colin McPhee and Alan Hovhaness are our other leaders." The percussionists want to change music entirely, explained Mrs. Glanville-Hicks. Melody, al ready on the wane since the days of atonality, is completely disre garded. They consider harmony a "dated decorative device." Their music consists of rhythm and nothing but rhythm. The exclusion of melody and harmony is but part of the per cussionist program. Another thing is the elimination of the tempered scale which has been the musical alphabet of western civilization for the last 300 years. Anything Goes The percussionists call the tempered scale an "aesthetic dis aster" and declare that they don't want to be shackled by it. They intend to use any audible tone and not only those that can be produced on a conventional in strument. They have conse quently replaced such, traditional instruments as the violin and the 'cello by such musical- new comers 'as the siren, the road drill, the rice bowl and the brake drum.

(U.R) Mrs. Francis Palmer got tired of wait ing for the judge to get around to hear her plea for temporary alimony. She started a sit-down strike in Judge Philip Elliott's anteroom. It took h'er a week, but after the Salvation Army began sending her food, she got her temporary alimony . . . when she was down to her last 61 cents. the regular percussion instru ments. They still tolerate the piano. provided it doesn't sound like one. For that purpose the per cussionist leader, John Cage, has changed his piano by attaching to its interior hairpins, nails, screws, weather stripping and bamboo slats. In that way he succeeded ', in eliminating .the famous Steinway tone in favour of a. shower of pings, thuds, woody, bell-like or chirping tones, explained Mrs. Glanville Hicks. , "European music was, after all, a detour she said musingly.
