Saens' Rhapsody in E No. !. In addition to
these numbers, Mr.. ". P. Tyrrcl. the Cincinnati
basso, will sing several choicc selections. The
| programmes arc really classical in character, If
not In age. and yet are very popular. The two
Beethoven sonatas. tho Pathetic aud Appas-
sionata. arc always welcome, while the numbers
from Chopin arc fairly representative Of that
roctical composer in all his moods. In the
works OF living composers are choice numbers
from List, iRub;ustein,' Katf, Reincclse, and
Wagner. The vocal numbers also are unusual
ly we'll selected. Mrs. Stacy's numbers repre-
sent the best concert arias OF the modern school.
some Of them broad and intense enough to re-
auire orchestral accompaniment; while Miss
Nhnnery will rive US mostly selections from
tho Old school. Mr. Eddy's organ numbers are
selected from the pure organ repertoire and are
unusually attractive. With such programmes
us these, and such artists to perform
them, this series of concerts ought to ap-
| peal with unusual force to every lover of music
in this city. It adds to the claims Of these con-
certs that they are to bc given in the interest
| and for the benefit Of the Foundngs'
/ Home, OF the nob'est charities in tue
city. The pat 'ons of these concerts, therefore,
will have the satisfaction OF knowing not only
| that their patronage will be rewarded with 4
ricf musical return. but that It will help most
| excellent and deserving charity. The concerts
will be live in number, and will take place at
Hershey Hall on tho following dates: Monday
evening, Jan. T: Thursday evening, Jan. 10;
Friday evening, Jan. II; Saturday afternoon,
