a Feuermann's ‘Generosity Puts Symphony in Temporary Dither

ON PROGRAM

. - THREE Sevitzky - that

Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, play the cello for the audience.”

Specifically, he informed

WEEKS AGO Emanuel Feuermann wrote to Fabien || he was happy to be coming back as soloist with the |: and that he would “really like to

the local maestro that, in addition to the

Schumann’ Cello Concerto, he would be happy to include Tschaikowsky's

Pezzo Capriccioso and the Dvorak Rondo in his gonisibutions bo the programs of tomororw oon and Saturday night. All of which was fine with Mr. Sevitzky—at least until he started searching for the orchestra score for these

last two works. .

The routine duties: of running a symphony orchestra practically ceased, while the clerical forces sent telegrams and air mail letters throughout the length and breath of our fair land, seeking the

elusive Pezzo and the equally wary

Rondo. Time marched on, and it appeared that / Mr. ' FPeuermann’s generosity might be wasted. Apparently the only scores ine America were possessed by the Philadelphia Free Library. And as the time for the concerts drew nearer, no answer arrived from the library. Meanwhile, two other cello works were substituted. Then, later an orchestral composition was substituted for the substitute solos.- The printer cooled his heels and waited for the program copy. Walter Whitworth, the program annotator, sat up past his bedtime to dig up facts for three sets of explanatory. notes. Finally, at almost the last minute, word came from the Philadelphia library. It was like the arrivel of the Marines in the movie's final reel. The man who had charge of music scores had been away, it developed. And he would be glad to send along the music. So all‘is going to proceed as advertised. It seems’ likely, however, that the Tsehaikowsky composition, which is to have its first Indianapolis ‘performance tomorrow, will be almost as new to the orchestra as it will to: the audience.

” ” 2 THERE WILL BE a good bit of additional novelty on the weekend’s program. For the generous list includes, among other things, the world premiere of “Fiesta,” a composition by the American com= poser-pianist, Anis Fuleihan, and the first local performance of Jaromir Weinberger's new set of variations on “Under the Spreading Chestnut Tree.” This is a work dedicated to John Barbirolli and the New York PhilharmonicSymphony Orchestra, and intro-

‘duced by them on one of this

season’s early concerts. For those patrons who know what they like and like what they know, Mr. Sevitzky has included the Overture to Berlioz’ “Benvenuto Cellini” and the Mozart G Minor Symphony as the first two items on the program.

” ” 8 YOU MAY ADD Mr. Feuermann’s name to the growing list of distinguished artists who are in the process of becoming American citizens, or have done so already. The cellist, who originally hailed from Austria, took out his first papers a year ago, and now makes his home in New Rochelle, N. Y, with his wife and 20-° months-old daughter. Mr. Feuermann was, untii 1934, director of the cello department at the Berlin Hochschule fur Musik. He spent the first years o Js political exile in Switzer-

Incidentally, Mr. Feuermann will be playing a $35,000 Stradivarius cello in his performances here. It is reputedly the last cello made by the Cremonese master, and its present owner always buys it a separate berth (lower) on train trips.

TOURS STUDIOS

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 30 (U. P.).—

Reports of His Swing Was Press Agent Dream.

NEW YORK, Nov. 30. (NEA). —No Maestro Toscanini doesn’t rhumba. A few days ago, an over-zealous publicist for a Latin night-oasis issued a canard of startling character. He declared that the white-haired monarch of the maestri had been seen on his client’s premises, torsotwirling to the serpentine strains of a South:American orchestra. A few gullibles fell for the report. But- a quick check showed that Toscanini was in his hotel suite by that hour, probably dipping into Shakespeare, > Arturo Toscanini has been ‘back in New York since early fall to continue his orchestral broadcasts and he has resumed his usual secluded life at the Hotel Astor.

He Wants Obscurity

If he does venture out to a night club—and such excursions are so infrequent as to occur once or twice as best per season—he goes only if he is guaranteed obscurity, which he prefers to a conspicuous table.

night clubs. A year ago he turned up at the International Casino, which presents a loud and lusty spectacle. It would be no exaggeration to say he was delighted at what he saw. At the Astor, Toscanini has settled down again to his accustomed suite on the sixth story where he has his living quarters, his grand piano, his voluminous library of music and literature and map of pedestrian New York. He still wanders about the town by himself, for he is an untiring sightseer, He flees when he is recognized. ;

Maestro’s Dishes Framed

His after-concert habit is to seek out an unheralded, small spaghetti place somewhere and. anonymously order a supper for himself and his limited number of guests. At rehearsals, the Maestro is declared to be as turbulent as he ever was in the past. A false note can irritate him to the point of eloquent invective and woe to the musician who arrives late. Toscanini is uncannily prompt at rehearsal time.
