Dvorak's Symphony Will Feature
State Orchestra’s Program Saturday
CHAPEL HILL. March 13—"To
the New 1\ orld,” Dvorak’s famous
symphony, which will be played by
the North Carolina State Symphony
orchestra in Meredith college audi
torium in Raleigh Saturday evening,
March 16, at 8:30 o'clock, was writ
ten by the Bohemian composer while
he was visiting a Czech community
in Iowa in 1804.
"To the New World” contains
some folk melodies that are widely
known as negro tunes. For instance,
the theme in the first movement
(adagio—allegro molto) is "Swing
Low Sweet Chariot” and. according
to Conductor Benjamin F. Swalin,
the most popular movement is the
second largo arranged as a song en
titled "Going Home.” The otliej two
movements are brilliant and dif
ficult, he says.
Dr. Swalin, professor of music at
the University of North Carolina,
has been conducting rehearsals all
spring at strategic centers through
out the state. The orchestra, recent
ly re-organized on a professional
basis, is composed of musicians
from all sections of North Carolina.
\\ illiam Klenz, cellist and grad
uate assistant in the University
Music department, will be soloist of
the evening. A graduate of the
Curtis Institute in Philadelphia, Mr.
Klenz is now studying for an ad
vanced degree at Carolina where he
also instructs in cello. He has ap
peared in recitals in Pennsylvania
and California, as well as North
Carolina, and has done extensive
radio work.
The remainder of the program at
Meredith will include Beethoven’s
"Overture to Prometheus;’’ "Con
certo for Violoncello,and Orchestra,”
Saint Saens; and Wagner’s ‘‘Prelude
to the. Meistersinger.”
Beethoven’s work, which is the
opening selection of the program, is
a classical composition based on
familiar legends about Prometheus
There is a slow introduction which
reveals the classical influence exert
ed by early composers on Beethoven.
Wagner’s Prelude to the opera,
"Die Meistersinger,” is. according to
Conductor Swalin, a fine example of
the composer’s orchestral style in
which there is heavy augmentation
of brasses and a display of multiple
melody.
The Saint-Saens’ selection will
furnish a lighter note to the pro
gram.
