...prophecy alone did Critic Gushing confine his last week's chatter. In addition he had scrambled together a list of famed musicians' food fancies. It read: "Toscanini. Kraftbruhe mit Ei (consomme with raw egg). . . . Iturbi, caviar on apples . . . Horowitz, Russian cutlets . . . Stokowski, raw vegetables . . . Hutcheson, mushrooms (he grows and eats them) . . . Cortot, bread and gravy . . . Brailowsky, lump sugar . . . Professor Erskine, raw beef . . . the Leners of the Lener Quartet, orange ice . . . Melchior, green apples . . . Gabrilovitch, sardine oil . . . Gershwin, cereal and milk . . . Schumann-Heink, onions . . . Jeritza, cabbage." Most, if not all of this list is verifiable fact...

Pianists José Iturbi, Harold Bauer, Josef Lhevinne, Ernest Hutcheson, Harold Samuel, John Erskine, Rudolph Ganz and Olga Samaroff formed a three-team relay for a Bach concerto.

The suits were brought, of course, by Negroes who asked that the Democrats be enjoined from barring out Negroes. The decisions made it clear that...
...four years criticism has been heaped on Dr. Noble by the press, musicians and laymen alike, for showing few results commensurate with the Foundation resources. Hence it has been with satisfaction that these same faultfinders noted the appointment last week of Pianist Ernest Hutcheson as Dean of the Graduate School, of Author John Erskine (himself a musician) as Chairman of the Advisory Board...
Last week Dean Hutcheson offered further encouragement: There will be a string orchestra composed of Juilliard students to be trained by Albert Stoessel, director of music at New York University and conductor of the New York Oratorio Society-an organization which may in time come to play as important a part in the musical life of the community as the orchestra of the Paris Conservatoire; there will be three concerts this winter with soloists chosen by Madame Marcella Sembrich from the best vocal students. Leopold Auer, famed violinist and teacher of such musicians as Jascha Heifetz, and Efrem Zimbalist, will...
