MUSIC.
THE THOMAS ORCHESTRA.

! Mr. Thomas devoted last night entirely TO
Beethoven; and IL was not only Beethoven night 10
he made one Of the most admirable selection.
Beethoven's music that We have heard 10 many Gt"
The programme wa- wonderfully Homogeneous a'i ~"
numbers we're cxtn moy beautiful, besides which "c'
were with a solitary exception admirably rendered
Whatever may have been the progre-s oi music since
Beethoven lived. nothing has face uoc written which
can fill the position occupied by OF his works nor
drive them from the reco, cton Of the musc-ioyinG
public His music is altogether ri ceHerls.
The programme last night included the Lconorc Over

Mime Schiller in the Iifth Concerto, was
no less successful She showed great technical prof.
Cheney as well thorough c0mpr' hension OF tho H.
ner meaning Of the music, and her playing was marked
by great dclicacy aud seHtiment. She has certainly
shown herself on this and other occasions one Of cycry
best piausts We have The concerto ended the hrst

par with what had gone before. Whether MI.
Whitney was traInmeled by incompetent accom-
pianist for the pianist who played the accompaniment

gcther devoid Of briancy ard variety Of cOor,ng and
did not at all compare favOraby with that which Miss
CIOnyn gave last year with Won BuOw.
But the performance OF the Fifth symphony
more than made amends for Mr. Whitney's
Tor his accompanisrs shortcomings. often as this work
has been performed here by this orchestra II has never
been better done The last three cnts were abso
lue perfection and from beginning 20 end the orchestra
was at its very best on the whole, have had very
few performances given by the Thomas orchestra
OF more even merit.
For tonight Mr Thomas has arranged p thoroughly
admirable and at the same time thoroughly popular
programme II contains such favorte numbers as the
"Wlliam Tell overture, schumann's "Irlumcrei" the
Haydn serenade. and the Alcgretto from the Eighth
symphony. Besides this. Nine Schiller VIII play, and
Miss Drasdn and Mr whitney Will sing Altogether it is
q remarkable programme.
