Music
April 1, 1915 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on music. One curious effect of the war abroad has been to aid the survival of the fittest in music. Those of the prominent singers and players who remained were in considerable demand, whereas the minor musicians completely vanished. Most of them came to America, in the hope of obtaining a footing here, but they were grievously disappointed, not only because their excessive number glutted the market, but because the great artists also cane over and gave more recitals and concerts than usual. Altogether, nearly two hundred solo singers, pianists, violinists and violoncellists of the first and second ranks have been heard in New York since October, 1915.
