The BEETHOVEN CENTENNIAL The Bee
thoven centennial festival at New York is u
thing OF the past, but the Tribune is following
it up with caustic criticism. 1t says
In pecuniary sense the festival must have
been disastrous. In an artistic sense, despite
some excellent performances to which We have
done full justice from time to time, it has also
been bad failure. A Beet hoven festival it
has not been in any sense Of the word. During
the whole eleven concerts only two compositions
by Beethoven have been played, and both were
played badly. There has been very little CLASH
cal music of any kind. The musical portion of
the community has consequently viewed the en-
terprise with disfavor, and the intelligent and
cultivated classes of the city have looked upon
it as huge humbug. The exaggerations, not
to say false pretenseS, Of the advertisements
were too aap rant to be excused. The bunders
and confusion in the management were too OBJ
vlous to escape notice. and too annoying TO be
borne with patience"
