o
another column writes critically OF the
Titiens concert at the Opera House OH
Thursday night, and among other cri,i'
cisms finds iauh with The Mile in select,
ing "The Last Rose Of Summer" when
she wis 80 pertinaciously encored. We
are at loss to imagine how music can
be so far educated out of person as to
make sbch a criticism. There was real
music in that song as sung by Mile,
much more real to ninc-tenths OF the
audience than the "classic" piece our
correspondent would tain have had
her select in lieu Of it. What is mu-
sic? Something that captivatcs the
'senses, not something that merely
plenses, and perhaps puzzles, the intel
lect. Good music captivates the senses
Of refined people. A mere musician is
not necessarily person Of refined sensi-
bilities, keenly. alive TO the poetry Of
sweet sounds, or capable OF being deeply
stirred by the cxquisitness Of their sug.
gestions. The mere ability to compass a
note that does not fill the measure Of
some delicious harmony does not evincc
,the possession OF the "divine soul Of
music" and while We admire it as
an artistic feat we can never be moved
by it'as IN inspiration that touches the
heart and makes all the world Of kin.
As has been well said, "the human
heart is plebian" and it loves the mu-
sic Of nature far better than that Of high
art. And the great composers love to
come clo!e to nature and always do so in
their most rapturous parts. It is not
alone in Vince ling that "The Last Rose
OF Summer" enthuscs an audience. We
have seen Miss Clara Louise Kellogg en-
thuse vast and critical audience in the
New York Academy Of Music to the
point OF transport, twice in the same
evening, by singing in her magnetic way
that same sweet song.
In all conscience we should ttiinR, that
Mile Titiens and her company gave US
full share OF classic music on Thursday
night, and no doubt her voluntary was a
change that her correct instincts and
tastes cordially approved. Even Homer
could not always be HOmeric, but turned
now and then from the liiad and the
odyssey 10 bcguile his heart with the
songs OF the tIomerides. II is in songs
that the human heart in oil ages has found
lis intensest expression, not in cold or
nate classic music:
"Giyc us q song the soldier cried,
The oulcr trenches guarding;
When the heated guns u the camp alllsI.
Grew weary u l0mbArtinS.
The dark Relan, In silent scott,
lay, grim and threatening. under:
And the tawncy mouth Of the MAAkon,

wcStO tho iurtS Tomorrow:

Willbrine enough Of 5orrow."
They lay along the battcrys side
Below the smoking cAnbon--
Brave hearts from Severn ppd from ClyJu.
And from the banks Of Shannon;
They sang Of love, aud not Of hmi>

Erh heart recalled different name,
But all Aang "Annie laurie."
