VAGABOND' ATTACKS COMPOSERS
An unknown Ustener" recently had a chance to tell famous com- posers in public just what he thought at their music. And he told them.
He told Dr. Vaughan Williams, for example, that many of his. compositions were "miserable."
. It happeried when he was intro- duced to the composers at the Music and Life; 1933. Congress in London, and invited to give his opinion.
His criticisms didn't worry the composers. They were amused.
Some agreed with him.
Afterwards he was revealed as Wilfrid. Franks, 30-year-old "vaga- · bond, painter, and actor. working with a gang of television workers."-- as he said.
'WRONG NOTE STUFF Composers also condemned ultra-modern music.
Dr. Vaughan Williams said he couldn't make head or tail of this "wrong note" staff.
"Are you young people sure that this wrong note' stuff means some-
thing to you?" he asked.
"If not, you are like a kitten running after its own tail."
