MISS MARION BAUER'S SUCCESS.
Her Compositions, Which Are of a High Order
of Merit, Are Steadily Enlarging Their Popu-
larity with the Critical Musical Public.
An American composer whose compositions are
deservedly winning a large measure of popularity
these days with discriminating musicians is Miss
Marion Bauer, of New York. Her suite of four
piano pieces, published by Arthur Schmidt, en-
titled "In the Country," has in a few months
reached its second edition. Her songs have been
on the programs of the leading operatic and con-
cert artists this season—a tribute to their worth
that is most significant, for compositions by Euro-
pean composers are invariably given the preference
by the vocal magnates.
Miss Bauer's compositions show that she pre-
fers solids to froth. Her scoring is authoritative
without being pedantic, and there is a distinct
charm and originality in her work that appeals to
those who love music for music's sake. This is
eloquently evidenced in her songs, "The Red Man's
Requiem," "Star Trysts," "Coyote Song" and in
"Ocklawaha," which has won tremendous favor
for the violin, it being played with great success by
a number of eminent artists. It is obvious that
Miss Bauer is destined to figure in a much larger
way among American composers of real worth,

Edgar F. Bitner, sales manager for Leo Feist,
Inc., who recently returned from one of his regu-
lar trips to the Chicago office of the company, re-
ports that the general conditions in the Western
metropolis so far as the Feist prints are concerned
are most satisfactory. The various strong num-
bers are being featured throughout the West and
also sold in large quantities, and Vocco Rocco, pro-
fessional manager in Chicago, is meeting with par-
ticular success in pushing "I'm On My Way to
Mandalay."
