Vol. 36; No. 22 Pierre Monteux Conducts Final Week of Symphony Ravinia‘s sixth and concluding week of symphonic music will bring to the conductor‘s podium San Francisco‘s famous conductor, the dean of all Ravinia guest con« ductors, Pierre Monteux. The faâ€" mous French conductor will begin his sixth appearance at theâ€"north ‘shore festival on Tuesday, July 30, in the evening. A final (seventh) week of chamber music will bring the 1946 Ravinia season to an end. Monteux will direct the Chicago Symphonyâ€"orchestra at the Tuesâ€" day, _ Thursday, and . Saturday evening concerts, as well as Sunâ€" day afternoon (August 4). A vetéran of World War I, in which he served with the French army, Monteux later represented the Allies as a "cultural ambassaâ€" dor." He first came to America in 1916 and directed the Metropolâ€" itan Opera House from 1917 to 1919, when he became conductor of the Boston Symphony. He reâ€" turned to Europe in 1924 and again visited the United States to conduct the Philadelphia orchesâ€" The concluding week of Chicaâ€" go Symphony music will feature four ‘"firsts." Monteux has seâ€" lected > Copland‘s â€" "Appalachian Spring"; d‘Indy‘s "Prelude to Act I ‘Fervaal‘"; Ibert‘s "Escales"; and the Milhaud "Suite Franâ€" caise" for their first Ravinia presâ€" entation. Copland began to compose the music of "Appalachian Spring," a ballet, in June, 1943, and completâ€" ed it in 1944, The original score called for a chamber ensemble of 13 instruments, but last year Copâ€" land arranged it forâ€" symphony. He received the Pulitzer prize for music, as well as the award of the Music Critics‘ circle of New York for his "Appalachian Spring." â€" d‘Indy‘s "Fervaal," although new to Ravinia, has been performed by the Chicago Symphony during its regular season, 6 result of Ibert‘s experience on a Mediterranean cruise. . The three ports that Ibert supposedly visited were Palermo, Tunisâ€"Nefta,, and Valencia. The three sections of the work are thought to represent Ibert‘s impressions of these ports. ‘The "Suite Francaise" was origâ€" inally written in 1944 on a comâ€" mission from the Leeds Music corâ€" poration as a contribution to the literature of the high school band. Later Milhaud arranged the work for the professional symphony. The five sections of the work are named after the provinces of France in which the Allied armies fought for the liberation of that country in World War II... Many folk tunes are employed.
