S3! 352 -53 C4-S MEETING THE MUSIC MAKERS Janet Resteghini '59 “Picking a favorite song or musical is like singling out a favorite child. You just can’t!”, mused Oscar Hammerstein rather wistfully, at the opening of the Boston Globe’s High School Editors’ Club for 1958-59. Mr. Ham- merstein and his equally famous partner, Mr. Richard Rodgers were guests of honor at the conclave in the beautiful ballroom of ,the Sheraton-Plaza Hotel in Boston, on No- vember 12th. Dorothy Thorne, John Tramello, Isabelle Wamock, Rita Falco, Emma Cafarelli, Janet Resteghini, Robert Cronin, Peter Vidito, Lydia Stavrinos, Nancy Swett, Rita Riccardi, and Susan Kaup were the lucky students of : Somerville High who attended. Mr. Cyrus Dugin, music critic par excel- lence, of Boston, introduced the team, not mentioning which was which. After Mr. Hammerstein had spoken for a few minutes, Mr. Rodgers got up and mentioned the fact that they had not been identifed, so he cleared up the matter by saying, “I’m the other one.” We also learned that both Rodgers and Hammerstein attended Columbia University although Rodgers entered seven years after Hammerstein did. After Columbia, Mr. Ham- -jnerstein attended Columbia Law School, and Mr. Rodgers went to the Julliard School of £ music. The two men both agree that their most successful works are “Oklahoma” and “South Pacific.” Little do we realize when we go to the theatre or sit in the movies to enjoy a Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, that it represents a full year of hard work. Audi- tions for the parts in the story are held all year round, whether a show is going on or not. Also, they completely finance their own productions. They si oke about how very few of their musicals have a moral lesson. But there is somewhat of a message to humanity in “South Pacific,” and “The King and I.” Among their other shows which have brought joy to millions are “Me and Juliet,” “Carousel,” “Allegro,” and their newest ef- fort, “Flower Drum Song,” which opened in Boston recently. Since the cast of “Flower Drum Song” was made largely of orientals, the gentlemen spoke of how the auditions for the parts in the play were held in Hawaii, San Francisco’s Chinatown, New York’s Chinatown, and in many other parts of the world. This is just one illustration of how Rodgers and Hammerstein value the effect of good casting. We also found out that the two great talents got together in 1943, and that they honestly work better sometimes when they have a deadline to meet. When asked how he regulated the hours that he worked, Mr. Hammerstein reported that he was more of an early riser and worker, while Mr. Rodgers got a great deal of his work done later in the day. -U Thrac $PP ? 5 59
