B M THE BEE: OMAHA. SUNDAY, JANUARY 29. 1922 i rv 'A Johnson Says Jazz Will Hold Its Own, Place WHAT i the real diitinctitf, imirrriil American muicr This it a question which is oiini krl tjr (nunc lovers, irut America ii a young nstion, com- nrd Willi Int countries oi tne 014 world and white undoubtedly the reason we liave hi lo admit that the masters of the old old world tuelled ours in music. In (act, there ire many who doubt the existence of essentially American music. Put there ii a characterise Amer ican tttuie, which i being developed more and more all the time. How thi, development i progressing it interestingly told by J. Koiamond Johnson, who, w ith his quintet of in Iruincnialists and vocalist!, is a big feature of thii week's program t the Ornheuin. In the firt place, Johnson is one of the most intellectual scions of the colored race in America today. Born in Jacksonville, J'la., in W3, he be tan the study of music at an early UKC and before long was a nutter of the piano, organ and voice. He also studied harmony and counterpoint with the best of American teach er, and then went abroad to com plete his education under the best masters in France, Italy and Ger many, thus intimately acquainting l.imsclf with these respective schools of music. On his return to this country he became superintendent of miiic in Jacksonville's public .chools, toured in vaudeville here and in Europe, became director of music for Hammerstcin's opera house in London and then served in the same capacity as ballet director at the Maura theater in Hamburg. Hut he is probably best known for li is work as member of the team of Cole and Johnson, besides which lie composed the music for their famous productions, "Shoo Fly Kegiment," Red Moon" and Mr. Wert Williams' "Load of Koale." He was likewise joint composer of the comic operas, 'Humpty-Dumpty," "Sleeping Beauty and the Beast" and "Come Over Here." He has also (lone a number of popular numbers, including such national hits as "Under the Bamboo Tree," "Lazy Moon," "Congo Love Song," "Con go Love Song," "Castle of the Nile" and others too numerous to men tion. So it will be seen that Mr. John son's opinion on American music should carry some weight. , "American mubic as it is recog nized abroad in all its forms and types can be traced back to the plan tation days," he says. Practically all of the music that he knows that has been written by American compos ers had its germ or origin in the old melodies of the soil. "This progressive evolution at first saw its expression in the min strel shows and the musical embryo of these old plantation songs ex tends to nearly every phase of our popular music. In fact, there is prac tically no popular song of Ameri can composition but what can be traced back to those old folk songs and spirituals. "Nationalized music the world over has always come from the low ly, from the peasant, from those of whom Gray, in his masterful 'Elegy,' said: 'Let not ambition mock their useful toil.' ' ' "Verdi absorbed his inspiration for his immortal 'II Trovatore' from the humble Neapolitans, Bizst his 'Car men' from the dancing and cigaret girls of Seville. It was from the rov ing gypsies of Hungary that Liszt snd Brahms drew the magical chords and rythms that have given to the world the great 'Rhapsodies' and the Hungarian dances. They tell us that many of Mendelssohn's crea tions arc founded on such homely themes as Irish jigs and reels. The music of Tschaikowsky, Oui Rach inanioff and even that of Rimsky Korsakoff contains vestiges of the folk songs of their native Russia. "In much the same 'manner has Dvorak in his 'New World Sympho ny' brought out the fact that the music of America is that -of the plantations of yore, for the themes of this great composition are the songs our darky forbears . sang in the days before the war." Contrary to the general opinion, Johnson is positive that jazz as we now it today will not die. On the contrary, it will survive but in an other guise. "Jazz," he says, "is also the evo lution of plantation music. At first the negro, when brought to Amer ica as a slave, had no idea nor am bition to sing about. He was a hap py, contented character, but he knows only of God and the devil. So he sang of these and thus we have the spirituals. Then came love into his soul. He sang of his Dinah and his Mandy and we have the common songs of later days. Later, a free man, he earned money. He spent it on clothes. He became the dandy and the dude. Coon songs ibecame ragtime, which later was elevated and became syncopation. Then the unrest taking hold of him, the syncopation, with its. even rhythm, became the jazz of several rythms as one, for that is all that jazz is. Instead of on melody, readily distinguishable, jazz, when properly played, is several different rhythms played by several groiips of instruments at the same time. It is founded on the same principles on which are based our symphonies and big overtures. In fact, I know of many cases where jazz has aided in the appreciation of these works' of our greatest masters, for the ear, trained to follow the several rhythms of jazz.vhas appreciated fully the numerous strains, blended into one musical whole, which have made the great symphonies the works of art that theyare." v Across the Continent. Wallace .Reid's latest picture, "Across the Continent." is a sticker for the cameramen. Charles Schoen bauni, veteran cameraman who has shot more than 35 pictures, declares it is the hardest picture he has ever photographed. The hardships and difficulties in photographing the transcontinental auto race, which is the big feature in the picture,, make the work of the eameraman most trenuous.

The scene of the ballet represents an old Egyptian pa!ac, -wl'h i eerlta of stairs rising to distant heights. The dancers, a hundred or more, appear In old Kgyptlan costumes, and In tho moonlight which filters through the ds ;aylng columns, dance a ballet whlcS Foklne has termed "Memories of the Past." It is reported by those who have witnessed It, to be by far the finest thing this master of the dance has yet created, not forgetting all the artistic masterpieces ho sponsored when he was the idol of the Imperial court of Petrograd. There are over 300 people In the cast. Among them ara Gladys Hanson, Lionel Braham. Ida Mutle, Hannah Toback. Orvllle Caldwell, Thomas C.

A SHOW with two stellar attractions and two featured acts opens with today's matinee at the Orpheum. The widely known comedienne, Elsa Ryan, will be seen in a one-act play. Also the Doris Humphrey dancers are to come. J. Rosamond Johnson, the song composer, is featured, and likewise dainty Marie. Supported by Rodney Ranous, Miss Ryan la to present the appealing play "Peg for Short." Mies Humphrey Is a prima bal lerina. Critics predict that In a few years she will be recognized as one of the New Fire Effect Used in "Mecca" Shows Fine Result Something new in the world of the theater has been evolved in the pro duction of "Mecca," coming to the Brandeis theater for one week only, beginning next Sunday evening, January 29. It is nothing more nor less than a new fire invention, and for the first time in 22 years new patents have been issued covering a fire effect on the stage, which is en tirely different from the celebrated fire effect patented by Lois Fuller, the fire dancer of 22 years ago. The new invention has been pat ented by Eugene Braun, master elec trician of the firm of F. Ray Corn stock and Morris Gest, and it is such a distinct no.velty that some record of it is worth preserving. "The one big feature of this ' in vention," says Mr. 'Braun,- by way of explanation, "is that for over 20 years no one has been able to pre sent a representation- of flaming fire on the stage without the consent of Lois Fuller, the so-called fire dancer who patented her device 22 years ago. Her patent was issued for a current of air, a combination of lights, and the use of strips of col ored material which were swept into an upright position by means of the current air produced by an electric fan. Simple as it may seem, this device is protected in the courts by Miss Fuller's attorneys, in spite of the fact that anybody can put an American flag in front of an electric fan, turn the light on it and get al most the same result horizontally that Miss Fuller obtained by direct ing a current of air in an upright position instead of flat. If the flag is pointed upright by the current of air, it would represent the way she obtained her flame effect. Stage producers for 20 years have paid royalties to Lois Fuller for the use of that device representing fire. "My invention, however, is en tirely different, inasmuch as I don't use a current of air, and the upright flames or tongues of fire I use are made of thin sheets of burnished copper. I use an electric motor to make them rise into view of the au dience gradually. I also have an electric heater, of the kind ladies use for curling irons, and this is sprinkled with a powder which turns to smoke when I turn the current on the electric heater. In addition to this, I have colored lights on the bottom of the braiier, and the light from these lamps, reflected on the strips of copper, combined with the smoke, gives the most realistic imi tation of fire that has ever-been known on tbt itagt" country's most artistic dancers. 8h ' assisted by an eieeiient ana graceiui r of dancers. Johnson has written hundreds of songs. His new act Is called "Byncopi-. tlon." Dainty Mane sings and dances, and on the flying trapese she Is the per sonification of grace. A favorite In vaude ville, ah haa alno been a feature with bl musical comedy productions. (Icrtrule Mcody and Mary Duncan offer both opera and Jazi selections. Comedy Is a lively element of their performance. "At th Depot" is the amusing skit to be presented by Harrison Greene and Katberlne Parker. Their act Is a modern minstrel afterpiece, with a very amusing element of blackface funmaklng. "A Day at the Races" Is tho title of the amusing act to be done by Galettl's baboons. This Is ths most hilar. Inus monkey performance on the vaude ville stage. Once again the cartoon eomlc, Aesop's Fables," will be a screen fea ture.

Several seasons ago, Mii Ryan journed to the Amniotics as ens of the "Three Little Maid" in l-roli-man anj EdnartW' musical comedy production of that title, Mif Kyan had some time previous acquired a Maltese poodle of illustrious line age and a disposition so affectionate (hit not even the most pronounced anticanine crank could subject this pup to the imallrit inconvenienrr. At the dock in San Francisco, the shrp'i officers warned the actress that "Dink" the poodle, could not land In Australia but would be placed in strict quarantine in Sydney harbor and kept in durance until she took ship for the return trip. Three weeks finally rolled around and the Ventura steamed Sydney headed and anchored in the offing. Panic stricken fellow passengers clamored for the privilege of defy ing the authorities and Undine "Bink" at any cost. The .purser politely but firmly intervened and '"Bink" was yanked into the hos pitable arms of an inspector and transferred to the customs boat in a j'ffy. . Of course, Mist Ryan was In consolable and the opening of "The Three Little Maids' was threatened I with postponement due to the I hysterical condition ef one of the trio. Then ray of sunshine appeared. During a visit to the customs liouie to Inquire about the well-being of her pet, the actre waa presented to no lefs distinguished a personage than Alfred Tennyson Dickens, suit of the illustrious Charles Dickens, and then a resident of Sydney. This courtly gentleman immediately be came interested m Mite Kyn's predicament and hit upon an idea to evade the drastic law, "Why not rent a cottage anu have It established st a ipecial quaran tine station?" was the incenioua sug gestion of the capable Dickens. A kindly disposed custom hot:e of ficer agreed that such a plan vat feasible and within two days, the cottage wat secured, the neecstary action was taken by the c'itom people and the beleagurel "Hink wu released from his prison nm! restored- to the overjoyed Mif Kyan. The fly In the ointment appeared on the scene a day later when a customs inspector appeared with a bill for five shillings and announced that lie would appear daily with a demand for the tame fee. At a bargain talc before a dog loving assemblage, "ilink" might have brought $1.85. Durit g Mi Ryan's atay in Australia, she paid the customs inspector $40. If you contemplate a trio to Australia, leave you pet dog at home."
