TO room. admiring and criticiZing the pic
lures, to the accompaniment of the sweet
music disconrsed on the organ.
Herr Strauss played for once an hour
and half. not so many set pieces as i'm
provisa tions of his own upon well-known
airs and operate selections. The organ
arrangements from Wagner were the
prayer. the march from .Rlenzi." and the
bridal march from "Lohengrin." A num-
Der of Scotch ballads were also played, the
andante movement from Batlst's Pilgrim
of Hope" and the "Marche du Sacrs"
from the "Prophete." Several more of the
selections were Herr Strauss own COM
position. He played alphabetically and
with excellent command over the re-
sources of his instrument.
Herr Strauss will give selections from
Weber's "Preciosa." Jansan's Bride
Song" and selections from "Tannhauser"
at next Thursdays concert in the Hopkins
mansion.
