The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1894-09-05
THERE is nothing courageous about
voluntary surrender.
A Music Festival.

The grand music festival which will
begin at Laurel Hill park tomorrow
may be considered among the most
important Of the numerous musical
events of the hour. The enterprise
which brings to our city in direct and
friendly competition such large num-
Der of picked vocalists and instru-
mental performers from the surround
ing country, must have its weight in
furthering the interests of music in
this city, which is already known to
fame as the home of excellent chorus
organizations. The musical spirit
which is not satisfied to rest upon the
glory of past achievements, but rather
urges the victors to greater efforts and
new undertakings is the one that is of
real benefit to music in community.
The friendly rivalry of the eisteddfod
does much toward promoting general
excellence and stimulates the contest
ant to continued effort for improve
ment.
The parties in charge of the arrange
ments of the festival at Laurel Hill are
well known in musical ventures in this
vicinity, and possess experience and
ability that guarantee that the sessions
will be of interest to all philharmonic
people. In the arrangement of the
various details considerable expense
has been incurred in order that nothing
might be neglected that would add to
the enjoyment and comfort of patrons.
There is no doubt that this enterprise
will be substantially recognized by
large audiences at each of the various
sessions.
