the song is enthusiastic about its possibilities
and concedes it a "natural" hit, which is sub-
stantiated by its tremendous sale in London—
where right now it is the leading seller.
The American edition is being rushed out,
and a characteristic Feist campaign will be put
behind it.

New Folios of Spirituals
Both Volumes Published to Meet Strong De-
mand for That Class of Music—Another Folio
in Preparation
Robbins-Engel, Inc., has released two impor-
tant folios, both acknowledging the increasing
demand for Negro spirituals. The first of these is-
sues contains "Famous Negro Spirituals," and the
response to this offering forced the issuance of
a companion book, "Celebrated American Negro
Spirituals." The transcriptions and arrange-
ments are by Hugo Frey, the well-known com-
poser and pianist.
Robbins-Engel, Inc., also have in preparation
another folio called "My Spirituals." These are
newly discovered works never before published,
edited and arranged by Eva J. Jessye, director ot
the Dixie Jubilee Singers.

Manning Sherwin, composer of the new song,
"Would-Ja," comes from that clever group of
Columbia University graduates that turned out
Hart, Rogers & Fields, of "Garrick Gaieties,"
"Girl Friend" and "Dearest Enemy" fame. Sher-
win wrote much of the varsity show material in
his undergraduate days and now that he is going
in for commercial composing he is bringing to
the field a thorough knowledge of harmony,
counterpoint and the other essentials of a prop-
erly trained musician. His style is almost ultra-
modern in spots, but he never loses sight of the
fact that genuine melody is the chief thing after
all.

Katzman, who is a noted arranger, Brunswick

alternated with the Goldman Band at Central
Park last year, will render among other Russian
Bolshevik jazz selections, the "Symphony of
1914," written by his former teacher, Dr. Ivan
Genowsky, of Moscow. This composer, by the
way, was a pupil of Tschaikowsky, who wrote
the "Symphony of 1812."
