WOULD $500 n WEEK SOTISFV VOU?
TEN TO ONE you would! It's a lot of money. But there's a catch to it. . . . Would you be satisfied with five hundred dollars a week and oblivion, or a chance at really big stakes and stardom ? That's the problem every orchestra arranger has to solve sooner or later.
I'm talking about the lads who style the tunes you hear every night, dressing them up so that orchestras do not all sound alike. Paul Whiteman used to spend fifty thousand dollars a year on arrangements alone. His chief arranger now, Adolph Deutsch, pulls down five hundred dollars a week.
Adolph Deutsch is top man in his field. But you seldom hear of the arranger. The music scrivener remains a ghost writer all his life, unless he decides to shake a stick instead of a pen. It's a move that brings with it plenty
of headaches and heartaches. Which is why most arrangers are content to sit in their obscure corners. Only a bare handful succeed in stepping out of the ranks of the forgotten man to fame, and you'd be surprised how often some little trivial thing turns the trick.
Take the case of Freddie Rich. If it hadn't been for the cyclonic Eva Tanguay, he might still be sprawling notes on paper, absolutely incognito.
Eva happened to be on the same bill at the theatre where Freddie appeared as arranger and pianist with the Frisco Jazz Band. Hearing him at the piano one day she asked him to make some orchestral arrangements of her songs, including her big number, "I Don't Care." Result. Freddie left the jazz outfit and went with Eva as arranger and pianist. {Continued on page 58)
