WILKES-BARRE, PENNA. SALE SALE HERMAN SHAW Many Original Label In Fine Condition Send for List to HARVEY J. GORGAN 5 Brule Gardens, Toronto, Ont., Canada sales necessary to keep them alive somehow has been effectuated. Then they, too, pass from view (the list of 1937's best-sellers seems to bear this discussion out pretty well). Marc Blitzstein's Airborne Symphony is something else again. It is destined, in your correspondent's opinion, to become regarded as an everlastingly valuable testament of this century's aspirations, hopes and fears. To have made it available, enshrined within the grooves of the thirteen disc surfaces necessary for its presentation brings a title to World Citizenship for all who have had to do with it, from composer to vendor, — and, by extension! for everyone who will listen to and absorb its message and its warning. It is as well that space for a side-for-side analysis is not available, for the feeling of urgency to name names and render thanksgiving to their owners will not be stayed. To Marc Blitzstein, then, the palm. To Robert Shaw, who, as choral co-ordinator and Monitor (Narrator) turns in as fine an example of inspired theatre as we shall be privileged to hear, ever. To Walter Scheff, baritone, for his eloquent tenderness and poignant innocence in rendering "The Ballad of the Bombardier" (a heartstirring love letter to "Emily"). To Charles Holland for the proud virility of his characterization. And, always, to the choristers for their observance of immaculate precision in speech and in song, BRAVISSIMO ! ! ! The Airborne, properly speaking, is not a symphony. It is a Dramatic Cantata for Democracy. It is not social propaganda — it is a stark warning to Mankind, — and if that warning goes unheeded and one copy of the Airborne's score should (by the utmost miracle) survive, those who have to rebuild, those pitiful few, will know that their work was cut out for them by antecedents who wanted a decent world if the markdown was OK. And so, the word is : — never you mind the gaudy class ring, the lifetime pen-andpencil set, the gold-embossed cyclopaedia or even the sheaf of good, solid stocks. Give that highschool graduate youngster or brother of yours a set of Blitzstein's The Airborne — and buy one each for your library, your celrgyman and your Alma Mater. Also, you'd better petition your favorite radio station to broadcast a complete performance on the eve of the next National Election. THOMSON. The Plow That Brdke the Plains. Stokowski-Hollywood Bowl Symph. Orch. Victor M/DM 1116. Four sides. The motion picture for which this music was created and from whose title the suite gets its own has come to be regarded as something of a yardstick of documentary journalism in the medium. The score, two thirds of it reckoned musically self-sufficient, has been having a tour* of the symphonic circuit and now finds its way to the turntable, where its life may endure for many enjoyable moments when properly programmed. Taken away from the text which was an important part of its film existence, its concert being is in six titled parts, — Prelude, Grass, Cattle Songs, Blues, Drought, and Desolation. Of these, the prelude and finale are in the almost dirge-like manner of Roy .Harris' Third Symphony. The Third and Fourth sections (Cattle Songs and Blues) bid fair to become appreciated encore offerings, and Cattle Songs in particular (a catchy scoring of familiar Western tunes) is sure to find a favored spot on the radio. Performed excellently, the recording is particularly striking. 55
