REVIEW OF ADJUSTMENTS.
MUSIC.
The opera did not prove so severe a drain upon
the public pocket as to leave nothing for tl:e
succeeding entertainments, and tho result has
been that neither Thomas, Rubinsteip, nor Booth
close the week empty-handcd. Since the depaE-
ture OF the opera troupe the week has been COM
pletely filed by Thomas and Rubinstein, the
former taking fous nights and matinee, and
the latter two nights and matinee. The
week hes been literally full Of music, and the
entertainments have been une1ceptionally
pleasant and profitable to music lovers.
In these two troupes there arc no man
agers to quarrel together, no prima
donnas to be pitted against each other, no tenors
to lose their heads, or baritones to lose their
voices. People knew beforehand what they were
going to have, or, at least, should have known.
They knew that they could hear no better play
ing than Thomas Orchestra would furnish, no
better piano and violin execution than Rubin
stein and Wienawski, Or, at least, they should
have known it. Those who did not go. lost
great deal of music. Those who did Co. gained
a great deal. Meanwhile it is sincerely to be
hoped that the negotiations which are now IN
progress to combine tho two troupes, 80 that we
NAV hear some Of Rubinstein's grander works
with such IN accompaniment as Thomas Orches-
tra can give them, may be successful. There il
reasonable prospect that such IN arrangement
may be made, to take effect come time i'll March.
Should it 30 eycntuate, the public, especially the
1uusical part Of it, may look for some novelties
they will never be likely to hear again. at least
with the same surroundings. For the Thomas
concerts, the public is indebted to the managers
of the Star Lecture Course. It is doubtful
whether Mr.. Thomas. even with his abound
| ing faith in Chicago, would have felt DIS
posed to come here, after such an unprecedented
| operate season, upon his own motion. The
Young sterisks, therefore, who have taken upoa
themselves to entertain people, and who have,
in the main, shown such good sense in their
method of entertaining, should be credited with
the pleasure derived from the Thomas concerts:
and, if they have mado a lot OF money out or
the arranpeneut it serves them right. 1t, in
month from now, they should be able to present
Thomas and nubinstein jointly, they will still
further ingretiate themselves into the goodwill
Meanwhile neither Rubinstein nor Thomas have
vet fairly finished their seasons.
