THIS COLA TASTES BEST

Sevitzky Records

Arcady Dubensky, violinist of the orchestra. The work is a musical portrait, “Stephen Foster,” and it’s recorded on three record sides by Mr. Sevitzky and the Indianapolis symphony orchestra. It was a choice on the part of Victor that fits in a number of ways. Both Russian-born Americans, Mr. Sevitzky and Mr. Dubensky have demonstrated their ‘faith in American music and both have exerted themselves considerably to promote it. On the fourth record side in the album, Mr. Sevitzky leads the strings through Mr. Dubensky’s “Fugue for 18 Violins,” a piece of austere beauty written on tradi--tional lines of the fugue, but American in spirit and texture. Both men are musicians who will not stop at using a banjo in its proper place. Obviously, this is in almost anything Stephen Foster ever wrote. So in “Stephen Foster,” banjo is added to full orchestra and the result is ‘wonderful.

2 8 2 ‘Old Folks at Home'

“Old Folks at Home” played rapidly by full orchestra and this theme, subject to variations of mood and tempo, moves through the medley of Foster songs, including / “Oh! Susanna” and “Beautiful Dreamer.” - Two cadenzas are introduced which have the effect of transitions for a full-tilt swing in “Oh! Susanna” (with banjo). They are played by James Hosmer, flute, and Leon Zawisza, violin and former concert master of the orchestra. Both Mr. Hosmer and Mr. Zawisza are in Uncle Sam’s air

THE PORTRAIT OPENS with’

ONE OF THE LEADING exponents of American music is our own Indianapolis symphony orchestra conductor, Fabien Sevitzky. Few | American orchestra directors have shown the Zeal he has in bringing to symphony audiences the works of American composers. Victor last year sought out Mr. Sevitzky to record a new work of New York philharmonic-symphony

force now, training at Keesler field, Miss., where Mr. Hosmer is reputed fo have made the highest army intelligence test score'in the field's history.. The orchestra plays “Oh! Susanna” with a hand-clapping rhythm—the way Stephen Foster wrote it. = Mr. Dubensky has elaborated the simple beauty of these songs, rather than burying them under a heavy orchestration, and the music is something any follower of Stephen Foster or the orchestra or both will delight in hearing. ! . ” a. a Mountain Air VINCENT D'INDY isn't as well known to recording circles as he might be. What has kept him obscure, perhaps, is the belief- that as a follower in the train of Cesar Franck, he was only an imitator of the master. D'Indy became the leader of Franckian school ‘after Franck’s death—a school of music which stressed unity in composition. Its followers confined themselves to themes stemming from a single song pattern. . This idea -is illustrated by d’Indy’s “Symphony on a French Mountain Air” in which the themes of the three movements derive from a folksong sung in the Cevennes mountains of France, where the composer spent his boyhood. The work is recorded by Victor on six, sides. The San Francisco symphony orchestra, under the direction of Pierre Monteux, plays it. Piano, played by Maxim Schapiro, is scored as a solo in.Strument in the orchestra. High-spirited ' and panoramic, the symphony is descriptive on a high level of musical imagery and lends itself to immediate ‘appreciation.

2 8 = Snap Judgments Sammy Kaye: “Let's Bring New Glory to Old Glory”—Tommy Ryan sings .the vocal with Kaye's band good as usual: “There Will Never Be Another You"—sentimentally sung by young Nancy Norman. Barry Wood — “I'm Getting Tired So I Can Sleep”—one fine song from one fine show, “This Is the Army”; “Why Don’t You Fall in Love With Me”—a plain ballad embroidered by Mr. Wood's baritone. Art Kassel: “Light a Candle in the Chapel” and “Every Night About This Time”—sentimental stuff.

Ken Maynard, one of the real old-timers of the entertainment world, western style, leads his white stallion, “Tarzan,” on Keith's stage this week-end to the yells, shrieks, whistles and applause of a theaterful of youngsters. He's an old line circus entertainer as well as a perennial movie hero and he knows that a straightforward act shorn of bunko is what the youngsters adore. = “Tarzan” did not appear-to be in as good condition as his master, however. The horse suffered a fall in his private car “while en route to Indianapolis

I think the cowboy gctor got the biggest round of applause when he told the kids that. “Tarzan II” is 12 years old, as he tells the audience by tapping out his age with a hoof, after some persuasion from Ken to tell the truth. The horse’s first inclination is to say that he is only five. Ken, for his part, twirls the lariat, tells some pretty fair jokes and plays the violin “Texas style,” which is to say that he rests it on his shoulder instead of under his

After a futile search for parts in Minnesota, they wired Sam Roberts of Keith's a bleak “Sorry.” That was Wednesday. Mr. Roberts got on the phone Wednesday night and managed to book the Royal Whirlwinds, lady and gent rollerskate team, which is pretty good.
