The Constitution adopted declared that \u201cthe object of this Association shall be to unite the musical profession for the protection and better regulation of its members, to promote the cultivation of the Art of Music.\u201d The Association had 64 members and soon after coming together became Local No. 19 of the National League of Musicians of the United States\u2014then the National body. But, coming into existence right at the height of the \u201cGreat Boom\u201d of 1885-1888, the endeavor to organize was not a success, and in 1891 the organization died of inanition. Thereafter conditions among musicians went from bad to worse and there seemed no remedy for the situation.<\/p>\n<p>In 1894, three principal orchestras\u2014those of William Frank Arend, Adolf Lowinsky, and Schoneman &amp; Blanchard (Harry H. Schoneman-Clarence W. Blanchard)\u2014were contending for the \u201coutside\u201d business. The Los Angeles Military Band conducted by William D. Deeble was the one regular ensemble in the field of reed and brass music. There were three theaters in the city: the Grand Opera House, Burbank Theater, and Los Angeles Theater. Cafes that employed music were the Vienna Buffet, Royal Bakery, and the Palace Caf\u00e9. Admittedly the business was bad, for conditions were undesirable and wages low. During October of that year, Arend went among musicians with a paper which he asked them to sign agreeing to meet and form another Association for their mutual benefit. As a result, on Tuesday afternoon, Oct. 30, 1894, a considerable number of those signatory met together at the rooms of the Republican Club in the Rawson Block, a brick structure which stood on the southwest corner of Second and Main Streets. After deliberation it was decided to call the new organization the Los Angeles Musical Society. After a constitution and bylaws had been adopted, the name was changed to the Los Angeles Musical Association. Soon after it became affiliated with the National League of Musicians as Local No. 19.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_953\" style=\"width: 194px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/afm47.org\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/charter-full.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-953\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-953 \" src=\"https:\/\/afm47.org\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/charter-full-184x300.jpg\" alt=\"Local 47's charter of affiliation, 1897\" width=\"184\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/afm47.org\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/charter-full-184x300.jpg 184w, https:\/\/afm47.org\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/charter-full-630x1024.jpg 630w, https:\/\/afm47.org\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/charter-full-624x1014.jpg 624w, https:\/\/afm47.org\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/charter-full.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 184px) 100vw, 184px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-953\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Local 47&#8217;s charter of affiliation, 1897<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Thus began the permanent organization of band and orchestra musicians in Los Angeles.
