AND “MILITARY ACADEMY”

as its first offering of the season. Helen Hayes and Maurice Evans head the cast, which should be sufficient bait to attract even the most wary of theatrical fish. Miss Hayes has had her eye on the role of Viola for some time and it is pleasant to report that she does nobly by it. She always has possessed a delightful comedy touch and here has a chance to indulge it to the utmost as the maid disguised as a man whose irksome task it is to serve the man she loves by pressing his suit for the hand of another woman. Evans adds the sedate Majordomo Malvolio to his gallery of * incomparable Shakespearian portraits. An innovation in his interpretation of the role is the use of .a slight Cockney accent, which may sound out of place in tie telling of it, but which is vastly humorous when heard. Evans fans, of course, must expect not to see too much of their favorite in this play because, while Malvolio is a major role, there are others which get more stage time. The entire company is a. highly: commendable one. I am allergic to Shakespeare's fools for the most part but the manner in which Donald Burr plays Feste, the clown, is something to appreciate and remember. It is not only his first role in a Shakespearian play but his first part in a dramatic work. His previous stuge experience has been confined to musicals. His excellent singing voice is heard frequently in this production. Wesley Addy, as Orsino, adds to his stature as a rising young player of classical roles. Mark Smith did not strike me as the best Sir Toby Belch. I have seen, but he has his moments and is somewhat more than adequate. June Walker is a gay and admirable Maria. Others prominéntly cast 'are Wallace Acton, Sophie Stewart, Ellis Irving, Alex Courtnay and Anthony Ross. Gilbert Miller, for years producer of the plays in which Miss Hayes has appeared, joined the Guild in presenting this production. Margaret Webster, the British director who has had such success here as director of Evans’ Shakespearian productions, can put another feather in her cap for the inventive manner in which she has directed this one. Stewart Chaney designed colorful sets and costumes and the considerable music employed in the | creation of Paul Bowles.

RECORDINGS

‘Hot Jazz Classics’ Start ‘With Tompeh:

Feminine Crooners Have Successful Week.|

By JAMES THRASHER

' Hot (Columbia).

zz Classics: Vol. I, Louis Armstrong; Vol. II, Bix Beiderbecke

Things move swiftly in the dance band world, and the solid jive

. yesterday is the corn of today. Nevertheless some music has ac fou

a certain permanence and some of its performers have taken on

legendary qualities.

And so today we find the cult of swingsters with

its own esthetic standards and its own set of deities. Among these olympian figures are Louis Armstrong and Bix

Beiderbecke, to whom Columbia has devoted the first two volumes of its Hot Jazz Classics series.

The swing-record connoisseurs—

and they're a goodly number— don’t need fo be told anything about “King Louis” or the late Bix, already a fabulous figure and the posthumous inspiration of a novel called “Young Man With a Horn.” However, these addicts might be interested in knowing that the Armstrong album contains two sides never before released. Also there is present, in the “Heebie-Jeebies” record, what is reputed to be | of scat singing. This came about when Louis dropped the music on his second vocal chorus and, not knowing the words,/improvised some meaningless syllables while the score was being retrieved. Likewise three of the recorded tunes are noteworthy for Earl Hines’ piano playing. Each of the two albums con--tains eight sides. And among the Beiderbecke items is a repressing of Paul Whiteman’s “Sweet Sue,” in which Bix took a half-chorus solo, And in something called

? “For No Reason at All in C,” Bix

laid down his cornet to demonstrate that he was no slouch as 8 pianist. Even if youre only mildly curious about swing and its beginnings, you might want to try or buy these albums. ' They're repressings from masters cut in 1926-1928. And they'll give you some really inspired jazz trumpeting—if you’ ve a taste for such things. All the playing is free-swinging, untutored, unsophisticated and low down, It’s born of the New Orleans honky-tonks, but it has a real and compelling vitality. 2 2 ”

Recent recordings are decidedly

grateful to some of sour crooners on the distaff side. And by far the best of the current lot, for my money, is Maxine Sullivan's soft, simple but -defipitely exciting version of “Barbara Allen” and “Molly Malone.” Miss Sullivan, it will be recalled, was the girl who first put “Loch Lomond” in the groove, thereby scaring up a host of inferior imitators who blitzkrieged the mellow towers of song with a devastating downbeat. But Miss Sullivan can do the trick where others can’t and shouldn’t. No less appealing than her singing of these ancient folk songs is the accompaniment that goes with them; especially in “Barbara Allen.” The style and harmony are strictly Tudor, but the - easy rhythm is contemporary. And there’s a vastly amusing anachron=ism in the orchestra’s quotation from the “Lohengrin” Wedding March. Be sure to hear this one.

: ” os 2 . : Also on Columbia is Mildred

Bailey’s coupling of “I'm Nobody's

Baby” and “Give Me Time.” Billie Holiday, whose calorific crooning is practically a twin to Miss Bailey’s, contributes “Laughing at Life” and “Tell Me More” to the Okeh list. Dinah Shore, for Bluebird, gives us “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes” and “How Come You Do Me Like You
