MUSIC.
THE CHURCH MUSIC ASSOCIATION.

THE CHURCH MUSIC AeSOClAIlONs
The great feature of the concert Of the
Church Music Association last night was Beethoyens
Mass D. This is composition Of supendous difficult
ties not much less formidable than the Choral Sym
phony 1t was written in the last period OF the masters
ue when the grandeur Of his conceptions seemed to
soar so far beyond ordinary forms OF expression that
they were often thought to be impossible Of execution.
Properly performed, the works OF this period are the
most sublime and impressive in the whole range OF mu
sic but when the orchestra Is imperecy trained and
the chorus weak ragged and uncertain, there is
sic more disappointing. Whether to praise the
Church Music Association for their zeal in
presenting this Mass for the first time to
an American audience. TO blame their
rashness In attempting task for which they were so
obviously untitled, we find it difficult TO decide Their
chorus which is the weakest for Of its SIZE and the
crudes for Of its pretensions that heard is
very far from having attained the necessary discipline
for such serious business and the most say for it
10 that 1t got through without any great catastrophe
The author of the programme deprecated criticism
account Of the immense difficulties OF the and the
few weeks allowed for preparation But meager prepa
ration not excuse for the Association under
compusion to bring the Mass until 1t had been sui
ciently rehearsed The solo parts which are quite
difficult as the chorus were intrusted TO Madame
Jaworska, Miss Antonio Henne, Mr.. Leggatt, and Mt
Remmertz. Madame Jaworska was very bad, Miss
Henne good, Mr. Remmertz very good, and Mr. Leggatt
GOOD now and then,
