the acton tree pwm wednesday october 22 1909 m i fl aryjlmsmrth ihmi th worlds most succeurul pope conductor would not haw been murjdan ikjlhidlu followed hi fathers withe but mantoveni to jook at hi career id retrospect could never haw been anything da during hi youth th venelunxwrt but erigjiirtbred genius was surrounded by tudt cutiifal giant a pbecaninl arid sektsaru for whom hi father worked u vwinlit having mastered the piano at art early age h then concentrated or the violin the taitrument with which ha il today 0 compleltry associated try the time he leached hit late teeoi mantovanl had perforated several difficult danical scon and wal leading hi own cmhestr at the age of twenlyone mantovanl found hlmlelf esrrptoyed by ait engu luxury hotel frequented by british royalty in forming the tipica orchestra during the impression yests uantovarti concentrated on the pope scene and became nationally renowned not untd 1951 did an inlematiorul reputation develop created by recording of chermalise early id thii decade mantovanl begad hie annual north american tourt constantly playing o packed houses the 1949 edition take hint into fiftyfour different citler a purtithing achedule for the tixtyfour yearold briton picture can be deceptive the tuudoed gentleman before me appeared rather ka fanpotiflg and cocisjdertbly more affable than portrait would suggest indeed a comparison in carriage and manner to that of victor borge would not be unjuttlfled he chuckled when aiked the etiquette of addressing a person with only one name and suggested three eltemativet maestro would be uitable should one regard him ai an italian classical conductor the english courtety would by mr mantovanl hit slag name mantovsni also proves acceptable the entourage evidently believed id the italian reference while i retreated into sit after to many yean in the music business mantovanl completely uridertand hli type of audience if you divide the audience into one hundred percent there it roughtly twentyfive percent wonderful clinic people at the other sphere there ii twentyfive percent who are jazz fens and all that and fifty percent are what i call popular and light rauiic people and theyre the majority thats my audience i hope the lean were filled by this time and apparently the popular and lightmusic people are virtually utthmfeuy in the overtwtfityflve age category as was to be proven shortly there should be no age barrier to thii type of murk in response to a query ai to why a classicallytrained musician should devote hia life to the pope he replied ive found that if you get hold of soma of there light pieces and use your clauical training on them you can produce tome rather better arrangements and make these pieces sound quite nice much better than they really are so im utilizing my datxical knowledge there hal he changed his music over the years well i have gone in a tubtle way you ace i made a name with a special sound on my wring well i still use that sound but i have changed the style of orchestration u modem ideas come i utilize the guitar much more all different effects more rhythm and things like that ive gone with the timet i think thats why im still here perhaps asked to explain hit continued success twenty years after lug orchestral s became economically unfeasible he modestly replied i just happen to be fortunate enough that i can draw crowds large enough to pay for the musicians actually his problem teems to be that they just dont build concert halls big enough to accommodate all hit adssurersif that can be considered a problem comparisons between this generation of pop composers and the preceding are not justifiable he uys in our days melody was our major feature today its mainly rhythm and tome tort of melody above il he recognizes each work for what it is and arranges it to entnhitire the salient features he excused himself for the performance what they call the mattlovadj magic consuls of mixing pop from the twenties to today and light elastics of forty musicians fully threequarters are string men and of them twothirds are violinists mantovanls statement about melody and rhythm evinces itself herethe rhythm section consists of onr busy percussionist whose duties range from kettle drums to xylophone and those violins come in wsves beautifully dry tonic wavet two points occur to me upon listening to such superb onhestntiob first despite our generation pride in modem composer the evenings highlights were not written in the isst decade although there was generous representation from this period secondly it becomes easier to understand the reluctsnce of those who did not spend their youth with rock to accept the medium now mantovanl provides music for listening not music for emoting the concert passed rapidly applause brought two encores including the anticipated charmsine then he was gone and the orchestra wed out the applause continued full of respect to this audience
