The Greatest Song Hit of all Time!
Although "Chu Chin Chow" holds the long-run
record for London productions, it would appear
that this unusual extravaganza of America was
bent upon excelling its English cousin in this
point. "Chu Chin Chow," under the manage-
ment of Comstock & Gest, is now enjoying its
fourth prosperous year over here, playing to
capacity business everywhere. The musical num-
bers include "Kissing Time," "I Love You So"
and "Siesta Time." Jos. W. Stern & Co. are the
publishers of the musical score of this very suc-
cessful production.

As was reported in these columns some time
ago, American popular music is gaining recogni-
tion in England far above the fondest expecta-
tions of the American publishing trade. Amer-
ican jazz bands which have been popular in that
territory following the war have, without doubt,
done much to bring such works into favor.

EDITION BEAUTIFUL is a

the best music of the old
masters.
The investment is insignifi-
cant—the results are tre-
mendous.
Write for Particulars
Today
One of the most enterprising of the London
music publishers is an American, well known in
New York musical circles, Winthrop Rogers.
Formerly occupying a responsible position in the
New York house of G. Schirmer, he went to
London shortly before the war to establish an
English branch of that house. In course of time
came the evolution to Winthrop Rogers, Ltd., an
independent establishment.
Mr. Rogers has published a number of the
compositions of the younger English school, John
Ireland, Frank Bridge, Frederick Delius, Robert
Quilter, Peter Warlock, as well as many of the
productions of American composers. From his
office is also issued a monthly called The Sack-
but, a lively periodical not at all averse to highly
controversial discussion of musical matters, in-
clined to take the "modernistic" side whenever
that side can be taken, and to let the opposition
have its say with equal vigor. The results arc
often entertaining and more or less instructive;
but it cannot be denied that so far as they have
been submitted to us there is a certain amount
of amateurishness that is not firmly restrained
in The Sackbut.
Among recent publications sent by Winthrop
Rogers, Ltd., are four songs, each by Jo'.in Ire-
land (an Englishman who has attracted con-
siderable attention to his violin sonatas), Frank
Bridge and Peter Warlock, none of which is
commonplace and several of which have con-
siderable distinction; and a set of "Six Inven-
tions" for piano by John Heath, an adventurous
harmonist.

The Quick Success of

has been nothing short of sensational.

was an orchestral hit, but now comes
