KRAUss RESIGNS FROM THE ORCHESTRA.
Mr.. Arnold Krauss has severed sll
connection with the orchestra at a
variety theater Of which he was the
leader. His resignation was tsudered
that he might use his phvsical and m usi'
cal strength for other and better work.
The prospectus of the Krauss string
quartette, composed OF Mr.. Arnold
Krauss, violin primo Mr.. A. Lowinsky.
violin secondo; Mr.. G. Muskat. viola;
Mr.. A. Bierich. violoncello. This guar
tette is organized for the purpose oiiper-
forming the classic music Of the masters
and for presenting to the people OF Los
Angeles an opportunity OF patrcnizing
an effort to raise the musical standard
of performances OF this character to the
highest possible ideal.
Mr.. Krauss is already we'll known by
his artistic solo violin playing. Mr..
Lowinsky is we'll known by his pro-
fciency in orchestral work. Mr.. Muskat,
a new conner, is an artist OF the fret de-
gree. having been a member OF the
leading oIchestras and qusrtettes in the
old country, formerly with Thomas in
this country. 1t is his presence here
which makes the formation of the quar-.
tette possible, the viola being indispen-
sable for the purpose in hand. Mr..
Bierlich's proficiency with the cello is a
the city. With this combi.
nation Of artists it is confidently hoped
to secure result never before attained
in Los Angeles.
The work OF these gentlemen will be
devoted to concerted effort to the gen.
eyal exclusion of solo performances,
only q certain number OF the latter
being placed upon the programme to re.
volved in the rendering OF the con-
certed music.
The price Of the concerts will be
20 al poia-
sion.
The entire undertaking will rest
simply upon its merits, and the patron
age OF all musicians and lovers OF music
asked purely upon that basis.
The first concert will be given on
Monday afternoon, February 4th, at
the Blanchard-Fitzgerald music hall. at
4 O'Clock. The programme will include
the famous O minor qusrtette by
in lour movements, the
tons. and other selected numbers to be
announced on the music programme.
THE NEW oRAToRIo SOCIETY.
The new Orstorio society is meeting
with the most encouraging success; it
had membership OF 80 at the end OF
one week. At the last rehearsal the en-
tire first part of the Elijah was put in
practice by the conductor. with the most
satisfactory results; snd by his mastery
reading of the vocal scors and his inter-
probation of the necessary tone color
ing on the piano. Mr.. Dunster has proven
himself to be the right man in the right
place as the conductor.
At the close Of the rehearsal Rev.
John Gray, who is acting as president of
the society for the time being, explained
that his connection with the society was
solely on account of his interest IN
musical art, and not because OF any con-
nection of the society with the church
Of which he is the rector; that all per-
sons of either sex who are mu sically
eligible will be cordially welcomed az
members of the society, aud it is de.
sired to increase the number to rs at the
next rehearsal, which will be Wednesday
evening, January 30th.

Nine. Emma Juch sang recently in
Washington in The Mesciah and scored
one of her old triumphs. As a concert
and oratorio singer Mms. Juch ia still at
the head OF the profession. and her con.
eummate art and artistic finish are
equalled by few. She is particularly
fortunate in the interpretations of Ger-
man lieder, and it is to be hoped that
che will be heard in public in New
York some time during this season.
