FOREWORD AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USE OF THIS MANUAL

In preparing this Motion Picture Manual for Piano and Organ, I tried to create the necessary bridge between the screen and the audience which is created in the larger motion picture houses by the orchestra. If we consider that the theatres of the size and standard of the Capitol Theatre in New York have half a dozen or so musical experts under the direction of the Musical Director work-ing out the music to fit the action on the screen, we realize what a very hard task it must be for any single individual, either at the piano or at the organ, to go through with music selected at random and generally at very short notice, and supply good musical accompaniment to pictures.

This collection is meant to do away with the aforesaid haphazard collection of music and its use for synchronizing pictures. Inasmuch as most pianists or organists in the smaller theatres do not get a chance, or a very poor one, to review the pictures before the public performance, you can readily see the difficulty under which they work with quickly changing scenes, different psychological situations chasing each other, back-shots, close-ups, close-ins, etc., etc. In creating fifty-two divisions and classifications in this Manual, I tried to give the most numbers to those classes of music which are most frequently called upon to synchronize actions on the screen. Let me say here for the information of every man attempting to use this Manual to the best of his advantage that you can't always por-tray action; one-third of all film footage is used to depict action; another third will show no physical action, but will have, as a preponderance, psychologic situations; the remaining third will neither show action nor suggest psychological situations, but will restrict itself to showing or creating at-mosphere or scenery. If it is action that the organist or pianist wants to portray, he will find a sufficient variety of headings in the index to satisfy almost any aspect of his musical taste; should the portrayal of psychological situations be necessary, he will find it under the heading of Love, Horror, Joyfulness, Passion, etc. In the music of 'Nationalties' Chinese and Japanese music has been treated as a unit; the less known national airs of Honduras, Uruguay and Venezuela I enclose only for the rare use in news reels; for Tournaments, Skating, or any exhibition of individual skill where the action is not too fast I advise the use of concert waltzes by Waldteufel, Strauss, etc.; should the action be rather rapid, a galop or lively one-step would be suitable. One-steps and fox-trots have not been included, as most of therq. are of passing interest and can readily be had in any quantity from all dealers. Under the caption of 'Neutral' you will find seven different numbers which are meant for use in situations where none of the aforesaid three situations are present-that is, where there is neither action, nor atmosphere, nor the elements of human temperament present in any note-worthy degree. The music found under the caption 'Sinister' is meant for situations like the pres-ence of the captured enemy, demolishing of a hostile aeroplane or battleship, or for the picturing of anything unsympathetic. The eleven pieces included under the caption 'Parties' will be found suitable also for the portrayal of social gatherings in gardens.

I advise every one trying to get the best use out of this Manual not only to read these instruc-tions carefully, but also to acquaint himself thoroughly with the contents of the whole Manual; only in that way will he derive the benefit I have striven to give every user of this book through the con-densing and summing up of my six years' experience in the Motion Picture game.
