This la a itory concerning Carmallta MaraccI who appears In Klamath Falls on the Pelican theatre stage the evening Of Friday, March the sixth, under the direction of the Klamath Community Concert association. The article was prepared for The New York Times by John Martin and is of interest to those who look forward to seeing the famous dancer and her troupe. The dance world Is a curious Institution, or Is that news? What prompts the observation (if such it can be called) Is the ease of Carmnlitn MaraccI, who fills annually through New York, giving a performance or two In the subscription series at the YMHA and the Washington Irving high school, and never so much as flirting with the so-called Broadway district where the generol public could find her. Yet, as it happens, she Is one of tho few unmistakably great dancers of our time. She is, however, a great dancer on her way up, and because of time lapse and Inertia the general public as a rule does not sec grcot dancers until they are on their way down. Neverthe less she has an original and authentic talent of a high order, and one which ia a Joy to behold at this very point in its fresh, adventurous and stimulating youth, without worrying about the heights that lie ahead. On her extensive tours this season and last she has wowed the cow-towns where audiences arc opcnmlndcd and receptive to new forms even though these happen to be good art: she has stood them up at West Point and Annapolis, where expert knowledge of dancing is not a part of the curriculum; at the YMHA here tho cognoscenti collect en masse for her perform ances and all but swoon in the aisles. It Is apparently some middle public, half way between the simple and eager and the sophisticated whose response Is still subject to doubt, that makes a Broadway campaign something of a managerial risk. Well, that is a matter of merchandising, and Is probably no more than good, conversative business wisdom. It makes, nevertheless, for a curious situation. So long as the general public does not protest, however, there is no Inclination here to grieve. Marnccl is very much In circulation, she can be seen by those who care to go into the neighborhood houses to find her If they take the precau tion to secure their tickets well enough In advance, and her skill and craftsmanship arc increasing by leaps and bounds all tho time. When she finally does make her attack on Broadway, It will be with flying colors, and nothing will have been lost but time. In poise and graciousness as a performer, quite apart from her qualities as on artist, she Is scorcely the same person who first tore across the stage of the YMHA four years ago. Her most recent performance there was incomparably the best she has yet given in these respects, and because of her added com mond of the external situation. It is possible for her essential arr to find fuller and fairer expression. And whot a spirited, meticulous and altogether individual art it is! When she stepped upon the stage In the opening "Gavotta Vivace" she brought with her such vital authority and such a complete sense of dnnce that in half a dozen measures she startled even the most blaso among her spectators Into a re newed awareness that the dance was, after all, an exciting and n rewarding art. To restore faith thus after the persistence of a season as loaded with dancing as this one has been is no mean achievement. The new "Fondongulllo" presents both a wonderfully bril liant surfocc and a wealth of comment. It is far more authentic than any lltcrni Spanish dance could possibly be, for it adds an objective quality through which we are made to see the impulses of race and temperament that underlie the dance of Spain. Yet MaraccI is no mere commentator. She bends the Invlolnblo blood tradition of the Spanish medium to her own ends as a creator, Just as she commands the acaderqlc tradition of the classic ballet to do her bidding, and In ono case as In the other there emerges an authentic and personal work of art. The little Beethoven "Scherzo" for three of the girls is a gem of composition, vivacious, Inventive and logical. It is only when MaraccI herself Is offstage that one has perspective enough to see what skill and imagination she possesses as a choreographer. In this little plcco as In the earlier "Seguldilla" she handles tho problem of composing for three dancers with what would bo sheer virtuosity If it were not also charming In substance. "Behold, the Ballerina!" Is a searing satire, not of the ballet, but on the ballerina's psychology. If It Is sometimes a littlo obscure in detail, Its broad outline emerges with penetrat ing clarity. Composltlonally It is characteristic of Maracci's method of piling up a total effect by putting together frag ments and brief sequences without surface relationship to each other. Her self-adulating ballerina here glamorizes fatuously amid bits of prodigious labor by the corps de ballet and senti mental flights of banality against the background of a quilted sky. The word "montage" is getting to be a cllchd in describ ing works of this kind, yet there is no better one to indicate the massing of relevant detail which comprises the method here. . "Lament for the Death of a Bull-fighter," from the earlier repertoire, employs a variant of the same approach. The tragic figure who Is the dancer shifts continually from her personal grief to her Identification with the dead bull-fighter actually engaged In tho arena. The pull between actuality and fantasy projects a sense of agony all its own. It is not the easiest dance In the world to follow bit by bit, but once again its im pact is Irresistible and its ultimate purpose luminously clear. 44 --saW to "i-" S f f A MRS.
