MEDELSSoHN,S CANTATA.
The Music That Will be Rendered at the GOunod Concert - Professor AsramOnte Pleased With the Chorus-Larse Sale of Tickets.

The Music That Will be Rendered at
 the GOunOd Concert - Professor
 AsramOnte Pleased With the
 Chorus-Larse Sale of Tickets.
 Even the exacting musical sense of Pro- lessor Agramonte is satisfied with the singing of the Gounod society in prepara- day evening. The rehearsal, to nearer, is most inspiring; yet this can bear no comparison with the concert where the parts which are now considered by them selves will be. united into an artistic whole. The chorus is we'll balanced, the soloists are among ths most eminent in the coun- try, the orchestra is one of the best in New England. Surely the concert must be one of the best that have been rendered in this city by local talent.
 The Christmas oratorio, "Noel," which has been translated from the French by the we'll known literarian and translator of part songs, Charles J. Sprsgue, is one of the grandest pieces of religious music. It opens with prelude, pastoral sympho- ny, in which the shepherds instruments are initiated, expressing joy at the ap-
 
 announcements by the soloists of the con- ing of the Lord and the chorus sings hymn of praise to the Lord. The oratorio throughout is replete with magnificent solos, but the most effective part is the trio consisting of the soprano, tenor and baritone soloists accompanied by the cele- brated harpist, Heinrich Schneider, of the Boston symphony.
 Mendelssohn's contata, the Hymn of Praise will be rendered in an effective manner. The piece opens a majestic chorus of praise, ''All men, and all things, all that has life, praise the Lord" This is paniment of ladies' voice. The tenor solo, 'sSing ye praise, comes next and leads up | beautifully to sall ye that cried unto the l Lord," hymn of deep distress and sor- row and which is rendered in an almost | sobbing tone. The fourth part a fugue | chorus "The night is departing is the | most difficult in the book and is sung by | the chorus in an almost perfect mauner.
 sI@Waited for the Lord,"a duet for i and alto with chorus aceompani- ment, and which is often sung in churches, will probably be the most pleasing to the | audience. Then follows tenor solo, "The | Sorrows of Death," which MT. Parker sings in perfect manner. No. is a choral sung without the orchestra, which 1 is followed by duet for the soprano and tenor. The work closes with a grand | chorus, to which the preceding hymns have been leading up. The closing is led up skillfully by the preceding parts and closes the cantata with an effect that is overwhelming.
 MT. Stanley Knight, at short notice, took Miss Sanford's place at the piano. The next rehearsal, and the last before the ,oncert, will be next Wednesday evening. The soloists and orchestra, which is com posed of forty five pieces, with Mullin Howes, one of the finest violinists in the country, as concert master, will arrive Thursday morning. The sale of tickets was increasing yesterday. The receipts mounted to over $1 200 and the house will no doubt be sold out long before the lay Of the concert.
