Hinds, Hayden & Eldredge, Inc., Publishers, New York City
and "Tell Me You'll Forgive Me" are being
broadcasted very extensively in the East and
featured by the leading orchestras. Among the
larger concerns that are now featuring this com-
pany's numbers is the S. S. Kresge Co., operator
of a large chain of stores.
Century Violin Numbers
Available for Saxophone
All Starred Violin Numbers in First Position in
Current Catalog Can Be Used for C Melody
Saxophone
The newest catalog issued by the Century
Music Publishing Co. in its list of violin pieces
has listed all numbers in first position with an
asterisk. This denotes that all such publica-
tions are available without change or arrange-
ment in their violin form for the C melody
saxophone. There are close to 150 numbers
that are so marked and this makes available at
once a good-sized catalog for saxophone en-
thusiasts.
This is a very important news item for the
music dealer, for saxophone solos and saxophone
music of all descriptions are having a ready sale.
To have in stock such a wide range of saxo-
phone music, which, at the same time, is carried
as violin publications, gives an additional amount
of material that can be presented at once to the
purchasers of saxophone music. One of the
good points of this compilation is the fact that
no additional stock need be carried in order to
serve a large saxophone clientele.
Jascha Gurewich, Saxophone
Virtuoso, Featuring "Nola"
"Heifetz of the Saxophone" Including Sam Fox
Publishing Co.'s Number in All of His Pro-
grams
New Boosey & Go. Songs
Boosey & Co. have issued three new songs
which, since their introduction, have found an
active market. The numbers are of the ballad
type and particularly melodious. "Song of My
Dream" is by Byron Gay, who will be remem-
bered for some of his past popular offerings
which have achieved wide successes; "When
l.ove Dies," words by Percy Edgar and music
by Hermann Leopoldi; "My Rose in the Garden
of Love," by Hazel M. and Lee W. Lockwood.
The publishers arc issuing some very attractive
consumer material on these numbers which are
bringing sales.
Ben Selvin Busy
Ben Selvin and His Moulin Rouge Orchestra
are becoming highly popular at college soirees
and their services are in much demand at the
time by leading Eastern universities. Recently
the orchestra sojourned to Troy, where it played
a prom for Rensselear Polytechnic Institute.
Later in May the Selvin aggregation will jour-
ney to Washington to play an important annual
event for the senior class of Georgetown Uni-
versity. These periodic jumps out of town, to-
gether with the regular weekly broadcasting for
WJZ and recording for Vocalion records, are
keeping the orchestra busy constantly playing
to large audiences.
Hibbeler Back From East
CHICAGO, III., May 10.—Ray Hibbeler, well-known
publisher and songwriter of the Garrick Music
Sales, has just returned from a very successful
trip to New York, where he found that this
company's hits are as popular in the East as
they are in the West. "Lost-My-Baby Blues"

panied by organ or orchestra, entitled "Music's

Jascha Gurewich, the only saxophonist to give
a recital at Aeolian and Carnegie Halls, is known
as the "Heifetz of the
saxophone."
It was during his en-
gagement as s o l o i s t
with Sousa's Band that
he first began to play
"Nola," and during his
tours of America this
was his feature novelty
number on every pro-
gram.
Demand for a saxo-
phone arrangement of
"Nola" has developed
Jascha Gurewich
and the publishers, Sam
Fox Publishing Co., of Cleveland and New York,
announce that a saxophone solo with piano ac-
companiment will be issued during the coming
season.
