Farewell Appearance
TWO YEARS ago next Wednesday, Ferdinand Schaefer, con-ductor-emeritus of the Indianapolis symphony orchestra, was tendered an appreciation dinner which was remarkable for the spontaneous ovation the venerable musician received when he rose, blushing with

embarrassment, to express. his gratitude. { The dinner was a “thank-you” note from the community to this
gentleman who is largely responsible for the orchestra's existence today. Since Fabien Sevitzky became conductor in 1937, Mr. Schaefer has reappeared once each ‘year as- guest conductor, mounting the podium from which he brought - the orchestra from infancy” to maturity.
Ferdinand Schaefer
how, in the dark days of the depression when the banks were closing, Mr. Schaefer kept the symphony going, digging’ down into his own pocket to pay the musicians. He is one of the men who believed that every major city in America could have and should have a symphony orchestra. The fact that today there are more symphony orchestras in the United States than ever existed in Europe is largely the work of men like Ferdinand Schaefer,
cert pair Feb. 6 and 7, Mr. Schaefer will play one of his own compositions, “Introduction. and Scherzo”; the “Pastoral” symphony of Beethoven; Strauss’ “Wienerblud Waltz”; the overture to Wagner's “Die Meistersinger” and Brahms’ “Tragic” overture. - » ” a MEANTIME, Mr. Sevitzky will present the second Young People’s concert of the season tonight at 8:30 at the Murat theater. Appearing on the program will be two Indianapolis artists, George Newton, baritone, who will sing Harl McDonald’s “Elegy and Battle Hymn” and Dorothy Munger, pianist, playing Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue” with the or-
Next week, the white-haired, wkite-bearded musician, who, in his eighties cuts an erect and | handsome figure, will raise his baton for the last time over the orchestra he founded. He is retiring. Mr. Schaefer came te Indianapolis about 37 years ago, directly - from Leipzig. There he had been first violinist in the Gewendhaus orchestra. He played under Brahms, Richard Strauss and Biegfried Wagner,

chestra. Over the week-end, the orchestra will play out-of-town concerts at Milwaukee and Manitowoc, Wis, and at Burlington, Iowa. s 2 = COMMENTING ON the current orchestra membership drive, a recent editorial in a county newspaper opined: “Where is the patriotic devotion that would devote that much activity to a non-war essential— when the people could do so much more good for those who need our united efforts?” What the editorial is hinting at, I think, is that the Indianapolis symplLony orchestra is a. frill which could be dispensed with for the ”duration like the cuffs on men’s trousers. That suggestion, “I suspect, won't appeal to millions of Americans who believe that the nation’s symphony orchestras represent one of the values in: American life they are “fighting for.-* Certainly no other enter-

tainment enterprise in the city so generously
in increasing numbers . . . . . . as guests of the citizens of Indiana who own ang operate the orchestra. It would require considerable study to dope out what particular phase of the war effort would be better served by letting the orchestra go. And yet, that is a possibility which the membership drive is trying to avert, in addition to
broadening the supporting base |
of the orchestra. The idea of the drive is to advise all citizens that the membership rolls are open to everybody
who has a dollar or so to insure |
the continuance of the community's finest cultural asset.
