MR.. DAMR OsCH AND HANDEL

10 me Edttor OF Ihe Irt0uhe.
Sir 1t is perhaps useless to continue the discussion
the Instrumentation used at Messiah" per
Torrance much further. Mr. Krehbel cannot
vince me that he knows more about the subject than
myself and If he chooses to set himself up higher
authority on Handel than my father, have nothing
further to say. my fathers position a classical
student and who has brought before the Amer-
public nearly all the greater oratorlos Of Handel
is too firmly fixed to be shaken by what Mr.. Krehbic
may think the subject. l have Handeps
authority for the doubling Of the wind parts In the
chOruses only that Handel went even further and
employed four oboes and four bassoons in an or
chestra consisting OF only twelve viOns while hal
twenty viOlins and all the other parts in proportion.
