THE CRITIC. TALKS
TO MUSIC LOVERS
FTVUE coming music season in Phlla-
dolpUla opens with every indication
that it will lie the most brilliant as
well as tho most numerous in perform
ances of any tlint the city hnN ever
experienced. There is alto a most en
couraging outlook from the box-ofllco
point of view, Which augurs well for
the success of the present ns well as of
future seasons. And after nil, the
box-office point of view is nn exceed
ingly important one, in spite of the
hypocrisy, ns common among musicians
n among others who accent or drag,
as the case may be, their llviug from
the prdctico of Wie fine arts to the
effect that art and money have nothing
in common.
This Ml eoundsu very well, but it
doesn't work out, especially in this day
nnd generation. No one will deny that
the nrtlst,, whatever may be his me
dium, who practices his art solely for
the money he can make out of it, is. not
going to -achieve very much in the ar
tistic senso ; but at the same time
money' In-reasonable quantity is abso
lutely ncccssnry to tho arts, especially
that of music. And iu the case of
music in tho largest interpretative
forms such ns a great orem-suu
opera, it is necessary in quite unrea
sonable amounts.
Thia'is required not only because of
the verv large salaries paid to the
principals (true of lending opera com
panies but not of tho orchestras), but
because the organizations muBt control
practically the entire time of men and
women of talent nnd of highly special
ized education.
The relation qf tho box office to ar
tistic endeavor, as well ns to the educa
tion o( the people along what nre be
coming, to be considered essential lines,
enn bcht be shown by the nrtlstic fnte
of those cities which do not encourage
In n Substantial financial manner the
best artists nnd organizations. Insldp
of n couple of hoohous poor from the
financial point of view their "sensons
vanish from viow.
BUT to return to the coming Benson
In riillndelphin. Mr. Stokowski
hns just arrived from n summer nhrond,
the first since the World War nnd has
brought with hlra. somo new scores.
Among these nre two Pnssncngllns by
Cyril Scott, tho ultra-modern British
coriposer, whoso eccentric pinno sonata
wns played here last season by Percy
Orningcr nnd whose equally eccentric
sonnta for pinno nnd violin la well
known to followers of this form of
music There aro also, it is snid, works
hv Mnllplero, whoso "Pnuso del Sllen
2ln" produced n painful or puzzling
Impression on tho Philadelphia audience
who sat uuder it a season or two ugo,
according to the classical or modern
proclivities of the hearer, bclioonbcrg.
Debussy nnd others. Mr. Stokowski
has nlso expressed the wish to revive the
Wacner programs which were so popu
lar a feature of the season a foV years
ugo and to glvo some Hichnrd Strauss
compositions as well, intentions in
which lie wM be backed by popular ap-

of these are the changes in tho solo viola
and cello, mado necessary by the resig
nations of Messrs. llclov nnd KIndlcr,
the former to go to the Eastmnn string

thnt if the Chicago Orchestra makes an
eastern tour this season, Philadelphia
will bo on its itinerary. Mr. Stock's

rniso salaries considcrnbly to retain
somo of their most vnlued members.
OF VERY grent interest to Phlla
delpblnns is tho season of opera of
tho Itnllan Lyric FodcrnUon, which,
under the aggressive leadership of
Alfredo Hnlmnggi, has promised fifty
operas nt tho Metropolitan Opora House
at popular prices. Slgnor Snlrrmggl
further nnnounces that ho w?H give ft
largo number of operas never before
heard In Philadelphia. Ho will have t-
if ho Is to' glvo n season of fifty per
formances without unduo repetition.
Here Is Philadelphia's chance to sup
port whnt sccmsJiko n fine undertaking.
fill.- m-l.a1W nt Hin
Academy last Juno by tho Lyric Fcd-I
cration was n most cxcellcpt, one, mm
if Slgnor Salmaggl will give, opern or
this standard there is no renBon why
we should not this year nnd for ouc
cecdlng ones hnvo nn opera senson really
worthy of the name. But it will havo
to be supported, nnd this pnrt is dis
tinctly ,rup to" tho music lovers of tho
city. . .-.... , ....
Ilnnro oon novel- no " CnCBD in Ul-J
accepted senso of tho word, and it must
always cost ns much ns or n littlo moro
than tho best thentrlcal performances
because of tho. enormous expense in
volved in tho salaries of principals, or
chestra, chorus nnd tho cost of swgo
settings, costumes, etc. An opcr.a
often requires ns many principals ns n
Shakespearean play, nnd tho singers
must nil be nenrer the nrtlstic level of
the stars than in the caso of tho actors.
You can glvo a play acceptably with
nn orchestra of twenty muslcinns, many
of whom may bo mcdlocro, but not so
with opern. Hero you must hnve forty
nt tho lowest cstlmnto, and they must
bo plnjrcrs of skill nnd experience.
mllESE- are only o few of tlio reasons
JL why opera ennnot bo gWen chenply,
even eliminating tlio cost of stars of
tho first magnitude, which run the ulti
mate cost up to Btaggcrlng figures. Tho
success of Slgnor Snlmnggi's venture in
Philadelphia will rest upon one matcrlnl
consideration : whether our people havo
as yet reached tho point of musical cul
ture to go to hear the work Instead of
tho singer. There is no .question ns to
the excellence of the company which ho
will bring, nnd n single hearing will
suffice to "place" tho orchestra nnd the
Rtnrr. npttttlPR.
It is to bo hoped, if only for the mu
sical opportunities which n senson of
opern affords, thnt the first senson of
the Italian r cucrniion win ue u nura:s,
A cltv of the size nnd wealth of Phila
delphia should hnvo no difficulty in sup
porting a renl senson of oporn, espc
cinllv when it is offered at the prices
