To Be Heard
George Hall, who has become the
preferred dance-band leader of mil
lions of radio listeners during ten years
of continuous broadcasting will bring
his celebrated orchestra to Carolina,
June 1 to play for the German club's
June Ball. This engagement will
make the first opportunity that many
of George Hall's local admirers have
had to see as well as hear their favorite
maestro of the kilocycles in action.
Direct from the Hotel Taft in New
York City, at which the orchestra has
been featured each season since July
1931, George Hall and his musical
aggregation include in their local pro
gram at Carolina many of the spe
cialized arrangements that have won
them acclaim on their daily, coast-to
coast broadcast from the Taft.
George Hall's mastery of music is
his by inheritance. His mother pos
sessed a lovely contralto voice. His
father was for many years first violin
ist in Victor Herbert's orchestra. At
six, George was playing by ear; at
eight, he was learning the violin under
his father's instruction; at fourteen,
he was sawing Away on his violin in
Victor Herbert's orchestra seated be
side his parent. But despite these pos
itive indications of musical genius in
their son, both parents decided that
George would make a splendid doctor.
So when the youngster finished high
school in his native Brooklyn, he was
promptly enrolled in the medical school
at Cornell, for above Cayuga's waters.
However, it wasn't long before
George scrapped all thoughts of a med
ical career. He secured an engage
ment with the Victor Herbert or
chestra and remained with the im
mortal composer for a year and a half.
Subsequently, he conducted the or
chestra in a condensed version of
"Mademoiselle Modiste" with Fritzi
Scheff at the old Palis Royale. Next
followed an engagement at the Ambas
sador Hotel in New York, and then a
jump to London, England, where he
was featured at the Savoy Hotel. Upon
his return to America he played for
Victor Herbert's "Dream Girl," star
ring Fay Bainter.
After playing at many of New
York's best known night clubs, George
Hall embarked with his orchestra on
a tour of the country and was featured
at such prominent hotels as the Ar
lington in Hot Springs, Arkansas; the
Elitch Gardens in Denver, Colorado;
the Claridge Hotel in Memphis, Ten
nessee. Altogether, he played engage
ments in 150 towns a year during this
tour. On his return to New York in
June of 1931, the orchestra was en
gaged to play at the Taft Hotel where
it has been heard every Fall and Win
ter season since then.
When George Hall brings his or
chestra here on June 1, Dolly Dawn
will be the featured vocalist with the
band.
