of the season will bc given next week at
Steinway Hail. where Theodore Thomas long
missed from York, viii appear again 1T
the head of his orchestra. and present one OF
those interesting and symmetrical programmes
which used to be the delight OF all our con-
noisseurs. The concerts OF this cOnductHr have
not only an exceptional meri. in the excel
tion, but they are distinguished for an excel
lence in the arrangement of the bill which Is
altogether unique We shall have repeated
occasions this year to admire the tact and ex-
tensive knowledge displayed in Thomas's
selections, for he takes charge again OF the
Philharmonic Society and will no doubt bring
back prosperity to that respectable organiza-
tiOn. Already there has been an active de-
mand for boxes and season tickets, and arrange
ments have been made for ample rehearsas
under Thomas's personal direction. The New
York Symphony Society enters upon Its sec
oud season vigorous and enthusiastic, ana Dr.
Damrosch has laid ont some important work
for it, the difficult and little-known larger
compositions of Bcrlioz forming, as they dld
last year, a considerable part of the scheme.
The Chickering Hall symphonies Sill go on
under the same direction as before, and the
Oratorio Society promises the usual variety OF
choral music
There is little positive information about
the plans of Mr.. Mapleson, but 1t Is reasona-
BILE to infer from the catalogue of his engage
ments that he Will rely, as he did last year,
chiefly upon a spirited and careful represen-
tation of the familiar stock operas. He brings
a prima donna who has won Il high place in
the regard of the American public, and who
has certainly given some of the most charm
ing presentations of tho light soprano parts
that our stage has witnessed for many years.
In some quarters there is always a clamor
for novelty; hut under the iniiu-
ence of Gerstcr's magnetic presence the
old works are fresh and young again, and it
will be long before our audiences tire OF such
an Amina. such a Dmorah, or such Lucy
of Lammermoor. There are several artists in
the list of the company whose capabilities
have yet to be tested, and there are rmors
of the production of various new works The
main stay OF the season, however, VIII un-
doubleday be Nine. Gerster-Gardini.

TILE MESICAL SEASON.

Tempted. perhaps, by the prospects of an
unusually gay season, the managers of opera
and concert companies have made start, and
some of them are already prospecting while
fashionable society hardly yet acknowledges
itself to be in town. 1t is assumed on all
sides that people mean to spend great deal
of money this Winter. The first CLEAN of
sunshine after the long period of gloom has
had remarkable effect upon the spirits Of
the public and all the world seems brisk and
merry Musical and dramatic entertainments
OF most kinds are likely to obtain a much
more liberal support this year than they have
earned at any time since the era of imitation
and extravaganza.
