RED DENVER, | COLORADO . FIFTY CENTS Ra ye d TS d > O « e« e¢ ‘The giant red sandstone monoliths that form the Red Rocks Theater rose slowly out of the upheaval of an ancient sea bottom, some sixty million years ago. There “ emerged through the centuries a scene of wild and fantastic beauty. Today, the Red Rocks look much as they must have looked in the Triassic Age, when they were the playground of the Dinosaur and the Mammoth, and the Peterodactyl screamed from the crest of Creation Rock. The sage-green hills, and the rocks in their strange and wonderful shapes, were the home and the hiding-place of Indians Red Rocks in 1910—Denver Post Photo before Buffalo Bill came West, and called the Red Rocks the most remarkable for- mation in the Rockies. Situated seventeen miles west of Denver, the area once was listed by geographers among the Seven Wonders of the World. Now it is famed anew for the grandeur and beauty of the Red Rocks Theater. Embraced on two sides by Ship Rock and Creation Rock, each higher than Niagara Falls, and with a 200-mile panorama of the Great Plains as a backdrop, this breath-taking spot has been called the most magnificent natural theater on earth, and the home of one of America’s most important cultural movements. | And Mary Garden sang On a day in the early 1900’s, John Brisben Walker, financier, trail-blazer and editor, stood with Dame Nellie Melba in what is now the Red Rocks Theater. At the time he owned the whole of the Park of the Red Rocks. “This is the great- est open-air theater I have ever seen,” said Melba. Her words were echoed in the summer of 1911 by Mary Garden, who sang “Annie Laurie” there, and followed it with a hymn. These artists, and John Brisben Walker, brought music for the first time to the Red Rocks Theater, Mary Garden and accompanist, Signor Tibaldi, at Red Dame Nellie Melba, above, came to Rocks,—Denver Public Library Western Collection Photo. Red Rocks. — Denver Post Photo. HE people of Denver, in 1927, saw the possibilities of the Red Rocks as the chief link in the city’s celebrated chain of mountain parks. Backed by many civic organ- izations, the city government took over the park in that year. Beautiful scenic high- ways were dynamited through the rocks and hills, and uncounted motorists streamed there to enjoy the splendor of the view. Construction, pushed by George E. Cranmer, then manager of parks and improvements, began in 1932. The theater was built, for the most part, by WPA and Civilian Conservation Corps workers. George E. Cranmer | M afl fin I S h e d th c J O b + + + For a setting of weird natural beauty, Burn- ham Hoyt designs an outdoor theater which in sheer dramatic structure is unrivaled in the world.” So says Architectural Forum, adding that Red Rocks Theater “is a superb example of what an architect can do with a helping hand from God.” Auditorium ts serviced by wide stairways. Architect Hoyt preserved all the original flavor of a pristine and majestic setting, using extreme simplicity of design, na- tive stone and shrubs. All mechanical facilities are hidden from view. Nineteen forty-seven brought the pioneer festi- val of music to Red Rocks. Able and devoted men and women gave their time without stint, as volunteers. The project was underwritten by the Junior League and the May Company. The 1948 Festival Series of seven concerts was spon- sored by the Red Rocks Association, a group of civic minded men and women.

A completely civic, non-profit undertaking, it is the plan of the public-spirited, music loving citizens who have planned the series, to give both citizens and visitors the finest musical entertainment the nation affords in a natural setting of incomparable scenic erandeur.

The first piano came in by ox- wagon over the old Santa Fe Trail in 1858. The first Denver concert was per- formed July 4, 1859, by prospectors from Omaha, who rendered “Yankee Doo- dle.” In the ’80’s, H. A. W. Tabor, the fabulous silver king, gave Denver the Tabor Grand Opera House, which attracted great artists and notable audiences. Mrs. Mary Elitch Long presented the first local symphony concerts in 1895 in the Garden Theater, with Ferdinand Stark conducting. Stark was succeeded by Ra- faelo Cavallo, who continued summer concerts at the Gardens and brought his orchestra into the Broadway Theater in the winter. By 1900, Henry Houseley also was conducting at the Broadway. The Wednesday Music Party, exclusive club of amateur musicians, gave impetus to the idea of civic music, and by 1912 the Phil- harmonic Orchestra Association had come into being. Horace E. Tureman, rising young musician, conducted the Philharmonic until it was broken up during the first World War. Local orchestra music was revived in the organization of the Denver Civie Symphony Society, which raised money, publicized its ideals, organized an orchestra, and presented its first concert in 1922, with Tureman conducting 90 players. For years, the society sponsored three orchestras under Tureman. The professional Denver Symphony gave evening concerts with nationally-famous solo- ists; the Civic Symphony—half amateur, half professional—performed Sunday aft- ernoons; a Junior Symphony was organized to bridge the gap between the school orchestra and entrance to the Civic Orchestra. Tureman was conductor until ill health forced his retirement in 1943. Guest conductors were heard until 1945, when Saul Caston, associate conductor of the Philadelphia Orchestra, was elected permanent conductor. Caston has wrought a veritable miracle in four years, de- veloping the Denver Symphony to its present high position as one of the major orchestras of America. S a ul Caston musical director and conductor of the Denver Symphony Orchestra, has been associate conductor of the Philadelphia Orchestra; conduc- tor of the Reading, Pa., Sym- phony; guest conductor of the NBC and National symphonies; musical director of the Robin Hood Dell concerts.

And no matter what the attraction was, men and women came away saying: “This is an experience; I have never been so deeply moved before.” The first production was “Yesterday's Women,” a pageant arranged by the American Association of University Women. Horace E. Tureman conducted the Junior Symphony Orchestra at an informal opening. A capacity crowd cheered Helen Jepson when she sang at the Rotary International Convention, with Henry Everett Sachs, conductor of the Denver Municipal Band, conducting a full symphony orchestra.

There is room for 500 dancers on the great stage and for 8,000 spectators in the theater when dancers don their ging- hams and jeans, the hoe-down band strikes up the music, and Colorado’s top-notch callers take turns at the microphone.

On July 4, 1870, it is said, a group of pioneers from the town of Mt. Morrison, nestled in Bear Creek Canon, undertook a “Champagne March” to the Red Rocks. There Judge Luther of Mt. Morrison de- livered the christening address, which ended on this note: “We, the assembled citizens of Bear Creek and vicinity, hereby christen thee the Garden of the Angels, and ac- cursed be he or they that changeth thy name.” This pronouncement did not have any great effect. People from that day forward called the area the Park of the Red Rocks, or, as it is known the world over now—the Red Rocks Theater. The story is from the Denver Public Library, but the staff has been unable to verify it. WELCOME TO COLORADO Dear Patron: You are seated in a theater in which, uniquely, the stage, the acoustics and the atmosphere have been fashioned and pro- vided by the wonders of nature. We, of Colorado, are proud of our Red Rocks Theater, and also are proud and happy to welcome you to enjoy it. We have tried to attune the performances here to nature’s settings. We trust you, too, will think of it as a shrine to be revisited again. Sincerely yours, Lee Knous, Governor le ee WELCOME TO DENVER Dear Friends: Let me welcome you to the Red Rocks Theater on behalf of the people of Denver. This beautiful structure, of which we are all very proud, belongs actually and_pe- culiarly to the people, not only of Denver, but of all the world. It was built with public funds, federal and municipal. It exists be- cause of the hard work and devotion to the task of many private citizens, civic organ- izations and public servants. Now, through their various agencies, the people are work- ing together to do in their theater things which will enrich the lives of all of us by measuring up to the beauty and immensity of the setting.
