"Ihe Little Dog waltz i"

The following anecdOte concerning the
valse in ID fiat (or. 64l by Chopin, so widely
known and so marvelously played by De
Pachma M, will be interesting. Georges
Sand had a little dog, as the story goes,
which was in the habit of whirling round
and round in vain endeavor to catch its
own tail. One evening when thus swinging
round the circle the famous French novelist
said to Chopin: 'If l had your talent l
would compose a pianofoIte piece for this
dog" Chopin sat down to the piano at once
and improvised the charming vaise above
mentioned, to which was given subsequently
the name "ValSe du Petit Chien.'

and who, in point Of woman's experience,
meets Faust under nearly the same con-
ditiOns that Juliet meets Romeo; it is OBJ
jected that the situations have led TO similar
method. in degree, of musical expression.
This is somewhat hypercritical. Miss Abbott
was at home III the role of Juliet. and as
the tragic features of the opera developed
met the demand for the more earnest and
impassioned music in the potion and death
scenes quite as effectively as she did when
her acquaintance with Romeo was only
rose colored. TIE balcony scene was a
