THE FESTIVAL MUSIC
Programmes for Each Night of
the Great Season Of Song.
Nine. Eames's Appearance on Wednes-
day Night-SelectiOn of SOloists
The Sale of Seats.

Aor the nVe concerts TO be given at the
May Music Festival. has not been an easy
one. The assignment OF so many artists,
the choice Of selections, and their appor-
tionment to the various concerts, have
made necessary long continued correspond
ence and many consultations. The pro-
grammes as finally arranged, subject,
they may be, TO slight changes have been
prepared by Professor Arens and Mr.. Stew
art, manager Of the Boston Festival Or
chestra, who has had much experience in
festival work, and have been submitted to
and approved by the board of directors.
1t is now believed that they are as nearly
perfect as they can be made and that
they are more varied and attractive than
any that have been enjoyed at previous
festivals Aside from the choral works. in
which they are to sing. the soloists. as a
rule, have been allowed to select their own
numbers. in which they think they are
most effective. providing that these selec-
tons were such as to conform to the gen.
eral character of the festival work. 1t has
been arranged for Mr.. Arens to appear in
a new capacity. that of conductor of the
orchestra, in one or two numbers, in which
he has been very successful, both in Eu-
rope and this country, and he, of course,
will conduct both the orchestra and chorus
in the works in when the latter is en-
ployed.
The festival will open on Tuesday night,
May Is, with the grand oratorio of ''St.
Paul. (Mendelssohn) of which the first
part will be given in it's entirety, with
cerpts from the rest, including the tenor
aria BE Thou Faithful Unto Death"
which Mr.. Davies has sung with such
great success in London and New York.
