THE NEW YORK MUSICAL FESTIVAL.
Elaborate Preparations for the Grand En-
tertninmcnt 10 Take Place Next May.

The Music Festival Association, which
has charge Of the preparations for the great
music festival to take place in New York next May
have issued prospectus, IN which IL Is stated that
there will be four evening performances. MS fol.
lows: First evening, Bach mozart, Handel. sec.
ond evening, Beethoven; third evening, Handel
fourth evening, modern composers. There will be
three afternoon Performances which, II Is expected
will enlist the personal cooperation OF noted
European composers, and which will afford special
opportunities for the great soloists OF the festival
In addition to the we'll known American artists
many celebrated European singers and performers
will appear, whose engagements are now pending
and whose names will be announced when the
contracts are completed. The Seventh Regiment
Arnory has seating capacity for an audience Of
nearly ten thousand. Al the western end of the
main hall will be built the great stage for or
chestrn, chorus, and soloists, modelled nfter the
plan Of the stage for the Handel festivals at the
Crystal Palace at sydenham The chorus will be
the feature the festival. and It Is expected that
1t will number fifteen hundred, except on the
Handel night when nt least three thousand will
sing. The New York Chorus Society and the
Brooklyn Philharmonic Chorus will form the bulk
OF the chorus but societies from other cities will
take part, and among these is the oraorlo Society,
of Baltimore. II Is believed that our own Phil.
harmonic Society might participate in the Handel
performance and thereby give Washington the
credit OF assisting in what will probably be the
greatest musical festival ever known IN this coun-
try. The entire musical direction will be under
the control Of the eminent conductor Theodore
