ANNE MUNDY

ANNE MUNDY, SOLOISTAT SYMPHONY CONCERTBeethoven's "Eroica" is the sym-

phony which will be played nextTuesday evening, March 12th bythe Symphony Orchestra of Cen-tral Florida under the conductor-ship of Alexander Bloch in theWinter Park High School Auditor-ium. This is the symphony whichOiin Downes thinks will in timestand forth as "the greatest of allsymphonies." It is the one origin-ally dedicated to Napoleon as thegreat liberator of men and destroy-er of thrones; but when Napoleondeclared himself emperor and be-came a tyrant, Beethoven changedthe dedication "to celebrate thememory of a great man"; now itis as impersonal as the tomb ofthe Unknown Soldier—a mightytribute to the deathless spirit ofman. It is peculiarly appropriatein these days of the struggle ofthat spirit against world-wide per-secution of it.

The soloist upon this occasion,in the Rachmaninoff concerto inC-minor, will be the beautiful andextraordinarily gifted Anne Mun-dy, of whom Eedfern Mason ofthe Boston Transcript prophesied:"Watch this young woman; she isgoing to cut a swath through theseUnited States." She has done andstill is doing it; Winter Park nextTuesday evening will see and hearher in action. The concerto iswonderful, whoever plays it.

Boys Choir at Organ VespersThe Apollo Boys Choir, of Bir-

mingham, Alabama, who wereheard with such pleasure last sea-son at the Bach Festival, will singat the Organ Vespers next Wed-nesday eyeriing at 7:30 in KnowlesMemorial Chapel as announced byHerman K. Siewert, organist of thechapel, ™The vespers are being re-sumed at "that time after havingbeen omitted the past two weekson account of the International Re-lations Institute and the Bach Fes-tival which were held in theChapel. •

IMPRESSIONS OF THE BACH FESTIVALA striking tribute to Bach's B

Minor Mass came over the wiresjust before its performance inWinter Park. A group of Germansoldiers went to hear the work sungin Amsterdam and when the choruscame to the hushed beauty of thelines "et in terra pax hominibusbonae voluntatis" they broke downand cried. The yearning1 of the hu-man spirit for peace so winninglyexpressed and the utter misery ofbaffled aspiration broke down allbarriers.

This poignant testimony to themoving quality of Bach's musictells more than the publicity andarguments of the Oommitee "whichis seeking so devotedly to secureannual Bach Festivals here in Win-ter Park. For it. is after all, amatter of winning the public to anappreciation and enjoyment of hismusic that must be the primaryobject in establishing these Festi-vals. When the public has cometo love Bach, they will have it.

This stage has long ago beenreached by musicians and musiclovers and our own Festival Chor-us of 150 fully demonstrates by itswilling devotion to long months ofrehearsing at no remunerationwhatsoever how much they loveBach. To put the matter on a broadbasis: it is. generally agreed bymusicians that Bach gives the loft-iest and. noblest conceptions inmusic of humanity, its love, rev-erence, yearning, sorrow, joy, trustin God and that his command ofsymmetry, rhythm and, accent arethe highest revelation of musicalart. It is of small moment thathis music may be difficult—althoughit presents no greater difficulties

than much of the modernistic workof popular composers.

The winning of the public toBach must come through perform-ances of his work which stir audi-ences by their interpretation ofthese human values and arouse aresponsive emotional appreciationin their consciousness.

It is precisely on this groundthat the public learns to love oris still cold to Bach. A perform-ance of the St. Matthew's Passionor the B. Minor Mass is successfulin direct ratio to the degree inwhich the hearers have been moved—as the German soldiers1 weremoved.

This year's Festival presented agreater challenge to Director Hon-aas and his chorus than last year'sSt. Matthew's Passion with its dra-matic text in English. That theygave a splendid performance of theB Minor Mass was the generalopinion of many music authoritiesconsulted by this writer. The im-provement of the chorus in tonequality, flexibility, precision andits unusual capabilities for expres-sion which will in the future be-come more fully revealed, consti-itute a notable tribute to ProfessorHonaas. He has fashioned a choi'*us of proficient and sensitive sing-ers imbued with enthusiasm andappreciation of their task. His ownwork as director has grown dur-ring these five years and disclosesability of a high order. •?

To the masterly organ accom-paniments of Herman F, Siewerta special word of praise is due.His technical proficiency in thedifficult role assigned to him was

WINTER PARK TOPICS, SATURDAY, MARCH 9, 1940IRVING BACHELLER TELLS WHY HE LIKES

Page Seven

WINTER PARKEditor Winter Park Topics:

I am asked to tell why I choseWinter Park for my home and whyI have lived here more than twentyyears.

There are many reasons. I likedthe people, the lakes, the pines andoaks and I had disliked the extremehumidity that filled certain dayson the east coast with a sense ofweariness and discomfort.

But the main reason was RollinsCollege. I had spent my boyhoodin a college town and I knew whata help a college could be to a smallcommunity. I had seen the youngleaving that little college and go-ing out into the world to be greatleaders. It is a coeducational col-lege like Rollins. In the fifty yearsI have been a member of its boardI have heard all the ill-founded,whispered scandals of those whothought it was on its way to hell.It is the fate of all coeducationalcolleges. While other towns hadbeen going backward, owing to thedecline of agriculture, that townhad continued to prosper for thecollege was supporting its trades-men with large sums spent everyyear by the growing faculty andstudent body. The college had be-come a paying industry. Newhouses were built, others wererented. As the college grew morefood, clothing, furniture, doctors,drugs and chocolate sundaes werein demand.

Now as to Rollins. It is inabout the same class as the one towhich I have referred and fromwhich I graduate. That was inthe St. Lawrence Valley where, inwinter, the snow was often fourfeet deep and the mercury sinkingto low levels, Rollins is much morefortunately situated. My first

thought about it was that it wouldgive me a chance to contributesomething toward the growth andimprovement of the town in whichI was to live. I know that if thecollege grew and prospered itwould do even more for WinterPark than my alma mater had donefor the town in which I grew tomanhood. I was investing a con-siderable sum in land and build-ings here and was interested, nat-urally, in the future of WinterPark. I wanted good people tocome here and build their homes.So when they asked me to be atrustee of the little college I ac-cepted the honor. It was a collec-tion of shabby buildings on a sandycampus only partly covered withstarving grass. Its professorswere underpaid. Its endowmentwas very small. Yet it was doing-good work. Rollins was in aboutthe same financial status as thelittle college from which I came.

We saw hard times here. Withdeficits and crying' needs we wereoften in sore trouble. But the de-votion of Winter Park was equalto the task of keeping Rollins alive.Nearly fifteen years ago I inducedHamilton Holt, a distinguished edi-tor who had sold his magazine, tocome and survey Rollins as a fieldoffering honorable occupation forhis talents. He came and saw andsaid that he would take its presi-dency if our community would raise$300,000 with which to increasesalaries and pay deficits for fiveyears. In a week the sum wasoversubscribed by the people ofWinter Park and Orlando.

Northern money began pouringinto the little town and it began togrow. The land boom burst. Thencame the great break in Wall

Street and water flooding out of itsinsecurities spread ruin far andwide. In spite of these discourag-ing facts Holt has brought to thislittle town |2,500,000 and made thecampus a really famous beautyspot. Moreover his new and suc-cessful ideas in education have ad-vertised Winter Park as a culturalcenter from the Atlantic to the Pa-cific from the Gulf and the RioGrande to our northern boundar-ies. That advertising has been ofimmeasurable value to Winter Parkand Orlando. How many of thebeautiful homes in this town aredue to that advertising? Howmany of the distinguished peoplewho live here have come because ofthat advertising?

Moreover, Rollins College poursinto this town considerably morethan $600,000 in cash every year.

Many towns would bond them-selves for any industry that couldreliably promise to increase itsbusiness by the sum of $6,000,000in ten years.

I come now to a fact of primeimportance to this community.Business has been so paralyzed bythe many long1 years of depressionin the north that Holt has foundit exceedingly difficult to raisemoney there. Do we not really owehim the help he needs and is notthis the time to begin to pay ourdebt to him? It would help tomake the college a still greaterasset to Central Florida,
