Russian .composers keep on turning out party line music By BILL SCARBOROUGH Contemporary American music and pea-formers enjoy a healthy but secret respect in Soviet Rus sia, says the Chairman of the 'University Department of Music, just back from a 30-day tour of * the Soviet Union. Dr. 'Tilen Haydon, one of four U. S. Musicologists sent to the USSR by the State Department as part of its Cultural Exchange Program, said that Soviet com posers still shy away from “de cadent Western formalism” (a term that covers everything ex cept Strauss waltzes) in their compositions, although they eag erly seek scores and recordings of music by modern American v composers. The State Department supplied both scores and recordings in quantity, which were presehted by the U. S. musicologists to li braries and conservatories in several Russian cities.

Haydon and three associates visited a number of Soviet con servatories and universities dur ing the tour, exchanging infor mation with Russian musicolo gists and composers. He is a Ke nan Professor of Music at UNO. Modern Russian music, Haydon said, is competent, but nothing new. Generally it is written in the tradition of the classical Rus sian composers, and draws heav ily on folk music and patriotic themes for its material. Although Russian composers do i well financially, they are still ' subject to tight restrictions on j what sort of music they may ! compose. All compositions in Russia must first be passed on by the Union of Composers and Musicologists, meeting in plen ary session. Then, having receiv ed approval there, the piece may be performed in public.
