Paul Whiteman and his orchestra, the best in the country playing dance musie, will be at the Auditorium, Johnstown, on FRIDAY evening of this week, and not on Saturday evening as we erronously announced in our last issue. The band, will of course, be a treat to all music. lovers and no doubt will be well attended from the north of the county. What Paul Whiteman now regards one of the amusing incidents of his color- ful caree is the fact that he was fired from his first jog in a jazz orchestra be- cause he “couldn’t seem to jazz it up”, no matter how hard he tried. A thumbnail of the famous career further reveals that ground is really a musical one advent in musical circles no that is, he was trained as a musician in life by his father who was su- sior of music for all schools in Den- Colorado. This resulted quite na- turally in the violin being made good portion of young Paul's diet. Paul Whiteman born in years ago and as a youth self well trained as a symphony player. He managed to earn a moderate income as such (when there was work), and later drifted from the Capitol Hill sec- tion of the city to the West Coast. He played for a time in various symphony orchestra but soon found the field limi- ted. The popular style of music inter- ested him greatly, particularly the dance rhythms of the day. Finally he aspired “sit in” with one the local dance bands and lasted less than two days. He fully realized that the leader of the com- bination was right in letting him out so soon and after playing again in the more esthetic musical organizations gradually drifted away to find work in dive oc- cupations, in fact anything that would earn him a living. Hewever, the jazz duct would be far superior to the re- mined to be one of the red hot jazz artists of the day or possibly forsake music altogether. Then he hit upon happy medium He thought that jazz could placed on a symphonic basis, retaining the best features of the former and combining it with the latter that finished pro- duct would be far superior to the ra- gular run of dance which was then mostly wild as clarinets and crazy rhythms. With this idea in mind he began to hire and surround himself with musi- cians who fited into his scheme of things He carefully chose men who understood harmony and counterpoint. He rehears- ¢d his men diligantly and studied their work from all angles.
