affair with Miss Szanto and the
proceeds go as a scholarship fund
to talented students who are un-
able to continue their musical
education through lack of funds.
Miss Szanto, one of the best
known younger pianists in the
country, has had a brilliant career
since coming to this country from
Lippe, Hungary, in 1921. With
June Wells, also of this city, she
toured Europe doing two-piano
work, and received a tremendous
ovation in the principal cities of
the continent. When Miss Szanto
received a scholarship to Isador
Philipp, in Paris, she was awarded
the highest honors of the Fon-
tainbleau Conservatory. She has
appeared four times with the De-
troit Symphony, and has given
concerts in many of the leading
cities of this country.

JOOSS BALLET PORTRAYING BALL IN OLD VIENNA

The histoty of the Jooss Ballet guage all the dramatic events of

19" the story of how two young human life. Mr, Jooss was to cre-

men, fighting discouragements
and prejudice, combined their
creative effects and produced that
unique dance organization known
today as the Jooss European Bal-
let.
Kurt Jooss is the artistic direc-
tor as well as creator of the bal-
lets, while Fritz Cohen, composer-
pianist, occupies the post of musi-
cal director. When they first met,
Mr. Jooss was the ballet-master
at one of the provincial theaters,
and Mr. Cohen was a struggling
young conductor, trying to get a
foothold for his new ideas in
opera production.
They found so many of their
views in harmony that they de-
cided to devote themselves to the
creation of a modern ballet group
that would express in mute Ian-

ate the ballets, Mr. Cohen to
write or arrange the music. Every
spare moment of their busy lives
was devoted to putting their plans
into execution.
It was no easy task. The hard-
worked ballet rebelled at giving
their leisure moments to the ab-
sorption of new ideas. It was only
after months of delays and dis-
appointments that the two young
enthusiasts succeeded in gather-
ing around them a group of danc-
ers who shared their faith.
