THE
MUSIC TRADE
MANY MERITORIOUS BALLADS
STRAUSS RAPS RADICALISTS.
In Recent Issues of the Boosey House—Writers
of Ability Represented.
Dr. Richard Strauss has stirred up a hornet's
nest in radical Germany with an open letter re-
garding the agitation for perpetuating the Wag-
ner family's monopoly of "Parsifal." The letter
contains the following attack on the Reichstag
and universal suffrage:
"Unfortunately the decision in regard to 'Par-
sifal' does not rest with the people who have re-
finement and the development of our own culture
at heart, but with politicians who are devoid of
r.nders'anding the rights of intellectual property
Some recent issues from Boosey & Co., 9 East
17th street, New York, are destined to win a large
degree of favor at the hands of singers of ballads
of quality. Among those which merit special con-
sideration are "Blue Eyes," with music by Ivan
Novello and words by John Yorke Bailey; "Cori-
sande," music by Wilfrid Sanderson and words by
Fred E. Weatherly; "The Brownies," music by
Franco Leoni and words by Fred E. Weatherly;
"It Isn't Raining Rain to Me," music by Lewis
Carey and words by Robert Loveman; "The
Pitcher," music by H. Arnold Smith and words by
Edward Lysacht; "The First of June," music by
Herbert Oliver and words by H. Ernest Hunt;
"The Maiden in Gray," music by Reginald S. Barni-
cott and words by Hubi-Newcombe; "Joy," music
by Cecil Engelhardt and words by Natalie Joan
Davey; "Go, Little Song," music by Lily Cover and
words by Harold Simpson.
It is difficult to differentiate when estimating the
merits of each of these compositions, for they are
all well worthy of praise. They are written by
musicians of repute and their skill is evident in the
melodic treatment and scoring. As is usual with
the Boosey prints they are admirably edited and
produced. The songs should find no small number
of purchasers when properly featured by the enter-
prising dealer.
owners." He adds: "I heard Eugene Richter, the
late famous Radical parliamentarian, invoke the
most shameless lies to tread under foot the right
of 200 German composers, including the Wagners
and Heines, in favor of 200,000 German publicans.
Things will not be better so long as universal
suffrage exists and so long as votes are counted
and not weighed, so long, for .example, as the
voice of a simple Richard Wagner does not count
the same as the voices of 100,000 navvies put to-
gether. No wonder the French and Italians in
matters artistic still consider us as barbar'ans."
Now will you be good.
