St. Louis Symphony Makes Its Initial Appearance at K. U.
YEAR'S FINAL CONCERT
HERE TOMORROW NIGHT
St. Louis Symphony, Directed by Famous Pole, Will Play in Robinson Gym
The concert, which the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra will give tomorrow night in Robinson gymnasium will be the third symphony concert of the year for K. U. The orchestra is being brought here by the School of Music, with a range for four symphony concerts a year in the future instead of two.
The St. Louis Symphony, under the direction of Max Zach has become one of the best known orchestra in the middle west. It now has severity-five concerts a week. His country is represented in it but Mr. Zach conducts all rehearsals in English. He probably is the only conductor in the world who does this. He is known as one of the least sensational of orchestra conductors. The reason is that most of the seas are given, rather than his own interpretation, critics say.
Mr. Zach was born in Lemberg, Austria Poland. He studied 'music in Vienna Conservatory before he entered the Austrian army for his term of service. There he was assigned to the orchestra of the Thirty-first Regiment of Infantry. At age 16, he came to America and joined the Boston Symphony Orchestra with which he remained until 1907 when he went to St. Louis.
Tickets for the concert tomorrow night may be obtained at the registrar's office or the Round Corner Center. There are fifty cents, seventy-five and $1.
