| Musical Matters
| rHR CoLLEGE or MUSIC
has issued the following notice to the sCol.
lege Choir
The College Of Music recognizes the great
| necessity that the Chorus OF the Musical
Festival shall attend all its rehearsals. In
| order not to conflict with Festival work,
the College will not give the elijah" aud
"Alceste," which were in progress for per-
formance at the Symphony Concerts. The
regular rehearsals will therefore cease, and
only such works be given as will not re-
quire extra rehearsals. The ladies of the
Choir will please remain for twenty min
utes after the part rehearsal of the Festival
Chorus, Saturday afternoon, January 31st,
to study Grieg's "At the Cloister Gate" I"
They are ais requested to be present at the
Orchestra Rehearsal Tuesday morning
February Sd, at 1l:30
THEODORE THOMAS, Musical Director.
The action of the College in giving up
the performance of the oratorio of elijah"
and Guck's "Alceste" is all the more
praiseworthy because it is only from The
great popularity of these works, and
tue ease with which they can be given, that
the College can make good the last of the
series of symphony concerts. Fortunately
there are smaller works wherein the choir
can appear aoceptably. The Grieg num-
beg "At the Cloister Gate" was sung last
winter and was received with interest and
enthusiasm. Miss Norton and Miss Gould
are the s0loists, with the ladies of the choir
as chorus
vins-street 0pera-house.
The bill this week is an attractive one
and next week will be equally as good.
Prominent among the performers are To-
pack and Moore, Flora Moore, Minnie Far
\ rel and host of other fine performers.
