"Tho Creation" at Caruee,e Hail.

Mr.. Damrosch gave an excellent presentation
OF The Creation" last evening in Carnegie
Hall. with the Symphony Orchestra. Lii
liam Blauvelt, Leonard E. Auty. and Emil
Fischer as solosts, and very good chorus
which lacked but about ESQ voices Of the 400
advertised, and was none the worse on that ac-
count, being ample and we'll balanced. That
most members of the chorus carried opera
glasses through which they quizzed the audience
most of the time when not singing, and that
they led in the applause after each solo, and
gave Mr.. Damrosch an ovation before he had
got in sight of the audience from behind the
wings, did not detraot, from the general artistic
effect, although adding an interest to the func-
tion not in the original scheme
There was good-sized audience, and it
showed due appreciation of the efforts of the
soloists and the excellent presentation Of the
Oratorio as a whole. The orchestral work was
smooth and even and the chorus sang with
vigor and discretion. Nine. Blauvelts work
was the most pleasing feature of the perform
ance. and her sweet. pure voice and simple.
earnest manner fitted well the subject. Mr.
Auty also sang scceptably, and Herr Fischer
added lucdty and evenness to the performance
by singing in English. as did all the other par
ticipants. even II additional impressiveness was
not thereby attained.

AM USEMEyTS.


Mr.. Seidl should have felt encouraged enough
by the applause of the audience at the Opera
House last night to contribute always as much
to the success Of these concerts as he did by the
performance of the "Venusburg music from
the Paris version of "TannhAuser." II was by
no means performance worthy OF Mr. Seidls
reputation for the overture began listlessly and
was conducted to point beyond tho love song
in the first act with so little shading and little
spirit that 1t was difficult to believe that Mr..
Seidl could interpret wagnerian music with
such a lack of appreciation.
But the ballet music OF the first act. inter-
rupted by the choruses, was played with fine
appreciation up to the moment of Vcnus's awak-
ening. The choruses were very effectively
played, and the enthusiastic applause showed
how hungry New York audiences are for Wag-
ners music given in such manner.
The selections from "Stabat Mater" were
sung again by Mines. Nordica and Scalchi, Sig.
Tamagno, and VI. Plancon. The honors OF the
performance fell easily to Nine. Nordica. and
NJ. Plancon., who. respectively in the "Infam-
didly, Nine Nordica concluding the final num-
Der in surprisingly fine style. Mile. Heller, who
was to have sung, succumbed late in the after
noon to the grip, and NJ. Plancon sang in her
place an aria from Mozarts Magic Flute"
Signor Ancona sang the toreadors song from
Carmen" and Tostfs "Good-by Summer in
English. and the audience had an opportunity
to compare his Sunday evening English with
NJ. Plancons efforts. NJ. Pancon is still ahead.
