Musicians’ Club to Form Junior Or chestra to Study Good Muasle. Jazz has been singing it long enough in Kansas City, in the belief of the Kan sas City Musicians’ Club, which has de cided to establish a junior orchestra as a kind of orchestral school for its young er members. H. O. Wheeler has been appointed chairman of a committee to found the unior orchestra, and associated with it on the committee are Carl Busch and Frank Lott. Free tuition in the better class of or chestral music, including the classics, will be given by experienced symphony men who are members of the local musicians’ union, which has adopted the name of the Kansas City Musicians’ Club and maintains a clubhouse at 1017 Wash ington street. “Our only object,” said 11. O. Wheeler, conductor of the Shrine Band, yesterday, “is to awaken the younger members of our organization to the fact there is more music in the world than the jazz they have to play almost continuously. “We want to give the boys a chance to pay good music. There is a great Num ro of young musicians here who are ambitious to play in orchestras or bands. But they haven’t the musicianship. that an only be gained in ensemble prac tice.” Mr. Wheler, Mr. Busch, Mr. Lott and other expr ured men In the club have five musice libraries, which will be at the disposal of the younger musicians who ’re willing to take up seriously the broaher study of the classics, and so fit themselves to play in the great sympho ny orchestra all believe will come into being here at no far distant date.
