    TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Friday, April 13. 1956
Program
Announced
For Sunday
Gustav Mahler's massive
"Symphony No. 3 in D Minor"
will be the featured work on
the program of the New York
Philharmonic-Symphony on its
KYJC-CBS Radio broadcast,
Sunday, April 15 at 11:30 AM
1:00 PM, PST. Musical Director
Dimitri Mitropoulos will return
to the Philharmonic for this
broadcost to begin the last three
weeks of the current season.
The Mahler Third Symphony
has never been broadcast by the
Philharmonic before. Assisting
in the performance of this work
will be the mezzo-soprano Beat
rice Krebs and the Women's
chorus of the Westminister
Choir, directed by Dr. John
Finley Williamson.
Perhaps because Mahler wrote
this work in a woodland hut,
the symphony has been given
many connotations of nature and
was originally entitled "A Sum
mer Morning's Dream." The
The fourth movement of this
six-movement symphony is a
song for contralto solo and or
chestra, the text of which is
the "Night Wanderer's Song"
from Nietzche's "Also Sprach
Zarathustra." The Fifth move
ment is a setting of a poem from
the "Des Knabe Wunderhorn,"
the famous anthology of German
folk poetry. The First, Second,
Third and Sixth Movements are
purely orchestral.
Maestro Mitropoulos will opan
the broadcast program with
Respighi's transcription of the
"Prelude and Fugue in D Major"
originally written for organ.
Ella Fitzgerald, Nell Rankin,
mezzo-soprano of the Metropol
itan Opera, Jim McPartland and
his Dixieland band, and popular
baritone Steve Lawrence will
present "What's New In Music"
on KYJC-CBS Radio's "The
Woolworth H o u r," Sunday,
April 15 at 1:00-2:00 PM, PST.
Miss Fitzgerald, will perform
with a trio some of the jazz
songs she has made famous. Miss
Rankin will sing the great aria
"O Dou Fatale" from Verdi's
"Don Carlos" and with the Wool
worth orchestra and chorus, the
closing hymn.
Jim McaPrtland, one of the
leading exponents of Dixieland
jazz, will play two numbers.
Percy Faith will present a
vocal version of the No. 1 in
strumental favorite of the na
tion, "Poor People of Paris." He
will also conduct the Woolworth
orchestra and chorus in other
numbers.

"Rare Entertainment
Offered by Ballet Troupe
By FRANCES BULKIN
Entertainment of a caliber
rare to the vicinity was offered
last night at Ashland when the
San Francisco Ballet company
.appeared in its first of two val
ley performances. The other will
be today at 8:30 p.m., in Hed
rick Junior High school. Only
one of the ballets, "Con Amore,'
will be repeated from last
night's program. Tickets will be
available at the box office.
The typically American danc
ing was done by young dancers
with typically American faces.
Choreography by Lew Christen
sen, the noted ballet director,
who accompanies them, is in the
modern school.
Those who attend tonight's
performance should not go ex
pecting to see the classic ballet
of "Swan Lake," or the "Nut
cracker Suite," but they should
not be disappointed if they go
with open minds. For they will
see ballet done in what is be
coming a traditionally Ameri
can manner.
Though deftly done it appears
lieht and breezy, as is to be ex
pected in our way of execution.
As in any company the prin
cipals carry the load. To name
favorites is a matter of personal
opinion. If there are choices,
however, tall, vigorous Sally
Bailey, and Conrad Ludlow, who
has a quiet understanding and
feel of the dance, are firsts.
Has Finesse
Nancy Johnson, possibly not
as spectacular as Miss Bailey,
has finesse and artistry. Blond
Richard Carter lends a youthful
vim, and in Christiane Bering's
presentation it appears she al
ready is well on the way to ris
ing heights.
Costuming is bright and
cheery, styled with originality
and of rich materials.
Though the leading dancers
may carry the load they could
not carry the show were they
not supported by a capable
corps.
In the corps are Fiona Fuerst
ner, Virginia Johnson, Roderick
Drew, Bene Arnold, Constance
Coler, Louise Lawler, Suki Scho
rer, Gloria Cancilla, Julian Her
rin, Tilly Abbe and Glen Chad
wick. Many Directors
Leon . Kalimos is company
manager and personnel is made

The group arrived here from
Eureka, Calif., and is on an 11
performance tour. They will also
appear at Eugene and Klamath
Falls.
On tonight's program in Med
f o r d in addition to "Con
Amore," are "Concerte Baroc
co," with music by J. S. Bach,
and "A Masque of Beauty and
the Shepherd," music by C. W.
von Gluck.
Something lacking last night
and which will be again tonight
is the "atmosphere" of a real
theater. But after-show conver
sation revealed that these young
artists are dedicated to their
work, not just to dance, nor
even to dance just before more
sophisticated audiences who
might better understand their
artistry, but to take ballet to
every vicinity to integrate this
new heritage into our way of
life. As Anna Pavlova dedicated
her life to touring the ends of
the earth to introduce ballet (she
died unexpectedly of pneumo
nia while yet on tour) these
dancers are pioneering in the
reaches of America.
