City, have just closed arrangements whereby the
new home of the company will be the entire

through to 114-118 West Forty-first street. The

entrances, but is designed in a manner that
makes it one of the best-lighted floors in the
city.
J. Fischer & Bro. have for several years out-
grown their old quarters. The business of the
company has shown substantial increases each
year and its catalog, embracing as it does music
publications of all kinds with particular em-
phasis upon 1 church music, is one of the most
important in the industry.
In April of this year J. Fischer & Bro. will
celebrate their sixty-first anniversary. The busi-
ness was founded by Joseph Fischer, the son
of J. Christoph Fischer, a teacher and or-
ganist, who came to this country from Ger-
many in 1857. He was the grandfather of the
present directors of the firm, George and Carl
T. Fischer, both of whom are actively engaged
in the development of the business. George
Fischer is also well known as the president of
the Music Publishers' Association of the United
States.
Moritz Moszkowski, Well
Known Composer, Is Dead
End Comes in Paris After Long Career Which
Made Him Internationally Famous in Musical
World
Moritz Moszkowski, the famous pianist,
teacher and composer, who died in Paris re-
cently, was internationally known to music lov-
ers and was the particular friend of practically
every concert pianist in the world.
M. Moszkowski, who was financially ruined
during the World War and through ill health
was obliged to give up his teaching, had his
declining years made easier by the efforts of
Paderewski, Harold Bauer and many of his
American pupils. In December, 1921, he was
the recipient of a unique tribute from his fel-
low artists when fifteen of the greatest pian-
ists of his time played together in Hippo-
drome, to do him honor and help him financially
in his hour of need. Among his better-known
works are a symphony "Jeanne d'Arc" in four
movements; a group of Spanish dances, an
opera, "Boabdil," and a three-act ballet, entitled
"I ,aurin."
Edward 15. Marks Music Co. has issued
"Montmartre Rose," described as an Apacho
fox-trot. This number had its original pop-
ularity in Paris and London and the Marks Co.
secured exclusive publishing rights in the
United States.

WASHINGTON,

approved March A, 1909, dealing with copyright

Included in Work—"Ten Recital Pieces"
Also Issued
A most interesting folio has just arrived from
the press of the Oliver Ditson Co., containing
"Ten Negro Spirituals," including the best-
known of these offerings, such as "Deep River,"
"Goin' to Shout," "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot,"
"Steal Away," "Ride on, King Jesus" and
others. The arrangements are by William
Arms Fisher, Harvey B. Gaul, J. Rosamond
Johnson and Charles Fonteyn Manney. This
compilation should have a wide sale, and it
should be part of the library of every music
lover in the country. The Oliver Ditson Co.
has also issued "Then Recital Pieces," for the
piano. This collection includes some well-
known works which should give it popularity
among artists and other musicians.
New Japanese Suite

"The Doll's Festival," Paolo Conte has com-
posed a suite for the piano called "A Japanese
Doll's Day," which is one of the newer issues

publication has been given a Japanese design
frontispiece in several colors.
