"Ecclesiastical Modes Differing from Those
of i the Greek" Is the subject chosen by Dr.
Raetens ] tor his > article on harmony this
week. Anil the subject Is handled with
masterly skill by this trained musician , the
development of the several modes In use In
old Greek church services being of a highly
itcrestlng and Instructive character.
A manifest fiction has obtained credence
n later times , nnd In recent years has been
rought Into prominence , to the effect that
t. Ambrose , at the end of the fourth ccn-
ury. nml St. Gregory , nt the end of the
Ixth , respectively appropriated the Greek
lodes to "ccles.astlcal use nnd reformed
buses which had corrupted this opproprla-
lon. Particular uses , In other matters , as
veil ns music , distinguish the churches of
Ulan and Rome , of which the two worthies
vere severally bishops , and men described
hemselves ns Ainbroslans or Gregor-
ans nccordlng as they followed the
se of either ordination. There Is ,
low-ever , rel.nble evidence that the
rlgln of these church modes was within the
entury and a half before the year SOO , and
it. Gregory nnd St. Ambrose had no more
o do with the same than had St. Peter.
There are grounds for supposition that In
ho primitive British church , even before
Theodore the Greek , archb'shop of Canter-
jury , and his companion , Adrian , were sent
) y Pope Vntallan to promulgate Honunlsm
n CC9 , there was a method of chanting and
a system of music of which some possible
ellcs may still remain , If they cannot be
uithoritatively proven , In certa n rural dls-
rlcts. The many fluctuations In the princl-
iles of church music prior to the time of
ho Reformation , with Us enfranchisement
of learning , exemplify ono constant purpose ,
he employement of the more advanced con-
l.tlon of the art , from period to iwrlod of
Is progress , the most advanced and the most
nodern , in the service of the sanctuary. They
> rove also that the system of modes , now
anclfully named Gregorian , has had no per-
nanence. Hence It may bo asserted that
hose well meaning men who would resusci
tate the standard use of so-called Gregorian
nuslc In the church evince mistaken zeai ,
'also ' antlquarlanlsm , Hlog cal dpductlveness ,
artistic blindness and ecclesiastical error.
Originally the four authentic ecclesiastical
nodes were named by the odd numb-rs ,
firat , third , fifth am1 oevnth , and the four
plagal , to make ever obvious their relation
ship to the others , were named by tha even
numbers , second , fourth , sixth and eighth ,
each pair being thus distinctly coupled. The
Inverted position of the tonic and dominant ,
as at the Interval of a fifth or of a fourth ,
Is so made constantly apparent , for the lower
of each authentic mode1 is the upper note In
the plagal. In the second half of the tenth
century Greek names were ndoptd for the
tour authentic modes of the church , and the
3reek prefix "hypo" marked the four plagal.
The most essential difference of principle
distinguishes the ecclesiastical modes from
the Greek , namely , that In the one are all
transpositions of the same scale , while the
other has each a special nrrangement of
tones and semi-tone's. ' To speak precisely.
the ecclesiastical modes are formed each of
the notes of our scale of C , each starting ,
however , from a different degree of th ( >
same. The Dorian Is the first mode and the
Hypo-Dorian the second of the ecclesiastical
category. The former has D for Its prin
cipal note , analogous to the tonic of mod
ern music , and you will observe that this
scale , or series of notes In alphabetical suc
cession , has a semi-tone between its second
and third degrees and 'between Its sixth and
seventh , having thus a ( OIIB between Its
seventh and eighth degrees , an effect most t
unsatisfactory to modern cultivated ears , as i
It lacks the leading ton ? .
DORIAN MODE.
D E * F G A B * C D
A melody in this Dorian mode Is employed
by Handel as tha. subject of his fuqal chorus
In "Israel In Egypt" and "I Will Exalt
Him. " Ills motive for employing this pe
culiar form of melody might more fitly bo
considered elsewhere than here , but I quote
the themeas a not unfamiliar example of
the character of the Dorian mode.
The third mode of the church is the Phry
gian and Its plagal. the fourth mode is the
Hypo-Phrygian. The former has E for Its
principal note and thus Its semi-tones lie
between the first and sc-cond and the fifth
and sixth degrees ,
PHRYGIAN MODE.
E * F O A B * C I ) E
Again , to quote from Handel's greatest
oratorio , the subject of the fugue , "Egypt
Was Glad When They Departed , " also In
"Israel In Egypt , " Is In the Phrygian mode ;
It Is also pertinently exemplified in the choral
phrase to the words "Lord , Bow Thine Eat
to Our Prayer , " ri-lterated with touching
pathos throughout the first duet In Men
delssohn's "Elijah. "
The Lydian Is the fifth mode of Roman
use , and th ? Hypo-Lydlan is the sixth. The
principal note In the Lydian mode Is F ann
the Bcml-tones lie between : the fourth and
fifth and the seventh and eighth degrees ,
LYDIAN MODE.
F G A B C D E * F
If we may reason from the pret-ont to the
past , and judge In any degree of the Impres
sions of which Greek ears were susceptible
from those which affect our own , wo may
fairly ascribe the tender character the an
cients perceived In the Lydian mode to the
effect of Its notes lying within the easy
range of a tenor voice , and thence being sus
ceptible of greater sweetness than those of
melodies In the Mlxo-Lydian , which would
exact more force , or than those In the Phry
gian and Dorian , which would be given with
more and more roughness. The gentler , more
acceptable , nay , more muslcai character of
the church Lydian than of either of the other
mode1 , springs , of course , from Its ascent by
a semi-tone to the keynote , which Is the form
of melodic conclusion that Is most satisfactory
and most agreeable to us moderns , and which
belongs to no other mode than this. Thus
there Is more of meaning than appears to an
unclasslcal or on unmusical reader In Dry-
den's line In "Alexander's Feast , "
"Softly sweet In Lydlnn measure. "
And It Is In the true Greek spirit , as much
as It Is In the pure modern feeling , that
he assigns * tills mode of tender expression to
the music that lulls the stormy passions ot
the hero.
In Beethoven's "Quartet In A Minor" Is a
movement which the composer defines as a
"Song of gratitude , In the Lydian mode , of
fered to the Divinity by a convaleicent. "
The extremely simple theme of this may
well show the character of the mode. That
the charm of this bes rfrsr meiody is
strangely qualified by the composer's rejection
ot the discretionary B flat of the fifth mode
must bo obvious to all hearer * . The seventh
mode U the Hyper-Lydlan , sometimes called
Mlxo-Lydian , and In the eighth Is the Hypo-
Mlxo-Lydlan. The former dates from the G
of modern music and differs only from oui
major scale In having a tone Instead of a
semi-tone between Its chief note and that
next below it.
HYPER-LYDIAN.
GAB * C D E F O
The examples I have adduced have been
sufficient to show that tbo so-called Gregorian
scales are employed ( ometlmes for special
purposes with good effect by modern com
posers , and the facts , more than the argu
ments I have stated , have , I trust , also been
sufficient to prove that these scales are
wholly unfit upon'hlstorlcal , artistic and re
ligious grounds for standard use In our
church service. CHARLES BAETENS.

A recant letter from Homo disabuses the
Impression generally entertained that Ital
ian composers live nnd dlo In poverty In
Italy. The statement Is made that a stipu
lated sum , nnd not royalties , Is paid In nd-
vnnco for the performance of each work.
The sum depends upon the value ot the
opera , the Importance ) of the theater , and
the artists employed , and the reason In
which It Is given. The publishers , thor
oughly cognizant cf the means of every the
ater In Italy , make their prices accordingly.
The prlco once named Is never reduced , oven
though the opera may fall to succeed. When
the contract Is signed the thrntcr director
receives the vocal , but not the orchestral
parts. In season for the nccrssary rehearsal
the latter arc leaned , but only when a suf
ficient sum Is deposited to secure their sate
return. To this phase of the business there
Is said to bo duo the frequent delays In
first presentations , managers not having the
necessary sum to advance. The Inefficiency
so frequent In the orchestra work on the
occasion of first performances Is ascribed to
the name cause an adequate number of re
hearsals having been denied. The com
poser's rights are placed at from 20 to CO
per cent of the supposed receipts of the the
ater Involved. The smallest provincial the-
ntcr In Italy , nccordlng to this Information ,
pays 1600 n night for the right ot presenting
"Cavallerln Rustic-ana. " and the receipts are
rarely double this sum. Deducting salaries
nnd other contingent expenses the man
ager's profit would seem likely expressed In
few figures. Verdi's "Alda" commands
$2,000 nnd even $3,000 a performance In the
larger cities ; In the provinces one-third the
last named sum Is demanded. Of the re
ceipts 40 per cent Is paid the composer by
the publishers , who must bear nil expense.
For the right to perform old operas little la
given , although "Uarbler , " "Norma , " "Son-
nambula , ' "Lucia , " and like works still nro
of mercantile value. In such Instances ,
however , the composer's descendants re
ceive no share of the profits , author's rights
not being known In the time of Rossini ,
Bellnl and Donizetti. In Italy an opera
may bo given In ns many ns twelve theaters
simultaneously , ns ovcry town has Its the
ater where operas are produced during nt
least ono season of the year. Dramatic
nuthors nro , on the other hand , hald not to
bo so well paid In Italy as musical com
posers.
Mr. Walter Damrosch , encouraged by the
great success of his Wagner opera season this
spring , has decided to give a live-months
season next year , opeulng November IS In
Chicago and visiting all the principal cities
of the country from Boston to New Orleans
and San Francisco , the New York engagement
being for three weeke In March. The ven
ture will b on a much more brilliant and
elaborate scale than last year , the list of
artists already engaged assuring first class
productions. Among them are Frau Katha
rine Klafsky of Hamburg , nnd Frl. Ternlna
of Munich , the two greatest dramatic so
pranos of Germany today ; Frl. Johanna Gad-
ski , who became such a favorite with the
company last year ; Herr Wllhelm Gruenlng ,
the great tenor from Hamburg , probably the
best exponent of the heroic tenor roles In
Germany today ; Dsmeter Popovlci , the bari
tone who achieved such remarkable success
In Bayreuth last summer ; Herr Kmll Fischer
and Herr Conrad Behrens , the two reliable
Waguprlan singers of last year's company ;
Mr. Wlllljm Merlons , a noted young baritone
of Now York ; Miss Nina Schilling and Miss
Marie Maurer of last year's company , and
Mr. Barren Berthald , the young tenor who
so successfully essayed the part of Lohen
grin In notion upon such short notice. Ne
gotiations are also pending with Herr Roth-
muhl , the tenor of last season ; a famous bari
tone , also a well known prlma donna , which
will complete the list of principals , and the
company will number In all 170 people. Herr
Carl Harder will bo the stage managpr as
before and the company will carry scenery for
all the operas , now being painted by Kautskl
of Vienna. In addition to the psvon music
dramas given last year ( Trlslan and Isolde ,
Die Walkure , Siegfried , Dlo Gotterdammer-
ung , Tannhauser , Lohengrin and Die Melster-
slngcr ) the company will also give "The
Flying Dutchman , " "Fldello" ( by Beethoven ) ,
"Dr Frleschutz" ( by Weber ) and "The Scar
let Letter" ( In English ) by Walter Damrosch ,
an opera founded on Hawthorne's great ro-
mance.
