Indianapolis Philharmonic Plays an Excellent Concert

By HENRY BUTLER A lot more music should be heard 8s informally as it was last night in Garfield park. Hermann H. Rinne and his Indianapolis Philharmonic orchestra (the best-sounding local amateur | outfit, and I don't mind sticking my neck out) gave a good, substantial concert. Even if Maxine Shrader, soprano soloist, got welcomed by teen-age wolf-whistles, and even if there were quite a few program notes audibly contributed by tots, the total effect was swell, For the orchestra put across Beethoven’s First symphony effectively enough to get bursts of genuine applause after each movement. ! And though much went on that! would be frowned upon in Carnegie | hall (kids coming and going, the way they will, and try and stop them) the near-capacity. audience |

got a lot of pleasure out of the!P music.

Setting Added to Employment With twilight deepening into | dusk, and with a remote back- | ground of cheerful yells and hollers from the swimming pool, you got that nostalgic old American feeling of being in the park, being with people, listening to music. Mr. Rinne’s achivement with that orchestra is little short of miracu-| lous.

What he has déne takes patience, | |tory faculty wlil present their an- and Jordan conservatory Try it your- nual production at the Civic theater member,

energy, personality. self, some time, He's got an amateur band that plays well. That's really | something to write home about. And ‘with no reflection on Mr.

Guest conductors. even though they haven’ t done the really tough work of organizing the orchestra, can sometimes bring out new possibilities. Reveals Weaknesses Last night's concert, sponsored by the park board, revealed some | weaknesses of the Garfleld park installation. That band shell, such as it is, doesn't project sound—it swallows sound. You could hear Miss Shrader via the sound system, but not to best advantage (good clear voice, plus earnestness and intelligence). But electronics cannot indefinitely make up for previous human mistakes, That whole set-up needs thorough revision. Ferdinand Schaefer, founder and |conductor-emeritus of the Indi|anapolis Symphony orchestra, gave |a brief talk during intermission. |Alluding to popular dread of classical music; Mr. Schaefer said, “No- | body Was ever bitten by a sym-| ip hony.” Bitten or not bitten, last night's audience emphatically liked Beethoven’s First, Mr. Rinne's amateurs | even kept the tots fairly quiet. | Everybody, young or old, sort of joer something good was going on.

Recording Hit ‘Jackpot’ for King Cole Trio Sermon Inspired Song

Leading to Success

By JACK GAVER United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 24.—The King

Cole trio, which played for peanuts nine years ago when it began to peddle popular music, is in the

$100,000-a-year class now. Recordings did it. “You make one record that

catches on big and you're on the bandwagon,” said Nathaniel Coles, the lean and musically earnest leader of this group of young Negroes. “The record that started things for us about three years ago was “Straighten Up and Fly Right.” This song was an original by Mr. Coles, who is called Nat by his friends and not King as some might imagine because of the name of his combination, Sermon Inspired Song “My wife and I were visiting her uncle in St, Louis,” he explained. “He is a minister. She went to hear him preach one Sunday and he illustrated a point with a story about a buzzard and a monkey. It struck me so funny and stuck in {my head. I got to playing around {with it as a song idea and we hit {the Jackpot.” Nat used to work with a band

around Chicago after he got out!

of high school. He played piano. The band wound up in Hollywood and then disintegrated. In 1937 he got together with Wesley Press, a bass player, and Oscar | Moore, guitar, and the trio got its firs® job in the Swanee Inn in the movie city. Press left in 1942 and Johnny Miller is now the bass player, Nat does the vocals without benefit of singing lessons. “We thought we needed some voice in our act so I just sort of began doing the best I could,” he said. “It just happens that I get by all right.” In Radio Show The boys are in the East now because they are a weekly fixture on the summertime Kraft Music Hall show over the N. B. C. network on Thursday nights. They also are just closing an engagement at the Cafe Zanzibar, They will go into the Paramount theater here in November and open a King Cole room at the 400 club this fall. The trio opened and owns 80 per cent of the King Cole room in the Trocadero club in Hollywood. “We've made a practice of doing old songs in our own way and ‘of discovering new songs,” Nat said. “The old songs are always sure fire on records or in personal appearances. I like to dig up new stuff by fellows who aren't well known because it gives us something that everybody and his brother isn’t doing at the same time, as is the case with popular songs issued by the big publishers.”

The trio's latest new ones are “Route 66” and “Can't See For Lookin.”
