 MUSICAL NOTES.

Miss Hariette Cady of New York has been visiting Mrs. George H. Watrous of Whitney avenue. Miss Cady is a pupil of Leschitizky, the famous Vien- nese teacher, with whom Paderewski studied Miss Cady intends to give a recital here later in the season. Her recitals in New York have been most successful and her appearance here will be looked forward to with interest.
 Herbert Witherspoon, formerly of this city, who made an operatic debut with the Castle Square company in New York as "Ramfis" in Aida has made great success. MT. Wither- spoon has just returned from a period of study in Paris, where he worked with Dubulle, Bouhy, and other famous masters. MT. Witherspoon has also re- sumed his position as solo bass at the Brick Prebyterian church on Fifth avenue.
 Ralph Schneeloch of the medical school has resigned his position in the quartette of the Congregational church of Ansonia and has gone into the col lege choir Last Sunday morning MT. Schneeloch sang Zoehners "A Hoy Spirit at the chapel It is the first solo heard in the chapel since Herbert Witherspoon graduated in '95.
 The sale of seats for the Symphony concerts and for the university cham Der music course is progressing at Steinerts. More subscribers are urg- ently needed for both. Many old sub scribers names are missing. It would greatly facilitate matters if intending subscribers would attend to the matter at once. In the chamber music course the two concerts of the Adamowski quar- tette will be of particular interest. The members of the quartette are all prom inent men in the Boston Symphony. Tim" Adamowski is not only famous for his admirable violin playing, but for his qualities of beau cavalier" He has been one of Mrs. Jack Gardiner S lions for many years, has worshipped ardently at Madame Melba's shrine, and is generally known as the peren- nial Adonis of the Symphony. Joseph Adamowski is talented 'cellist and his wife was Mile. SZumowska. Madame Szumowska- -Adamowski is delightful pianist and is well remembered here for her playing with Sauret here two or three winters ago. It was a concert in the Peoples course" under Miss Johnstones management and Plunket Greene was the other soloist. It would be a great treat for us if the manage ment of the course would arrange to make one of the concerts provide an opportunity for this charming pianist to be heard with the quartette. The course tickets for the four concerts this year have been placed at the very reasonable price of two dollars and a hall.
 Max Knitel Treumann proposes to give monthly pupils recitals this win ter. after the order of the German con- servatory 'Schueler-Abende." The re- citals will not be open to the general public, invitations being limited to the pupils and their friends. The object is to give the pupils 'routine" and to ac- custom them to singing in public. MT. Treumann has very large class this winter and these recitals will doubtless be very enjoyable.
 Thomas M. Prentice's choir at the Church of St Mary the Virgin, New York. rendered Reginald de Koven's setting of Kipling's 'Recessional." AL though the poem was written as cor rective to England's overwesning pride
 God of our Fathers known of old,
 Lord of our far-fung battle line,
 Under whose mighty hand we hold
 Dominion over palm and pine
 Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
 Lest we forget! Lest we forget!"
 still the admonition may not be out of place with us. De Koven's setting is effective but it lacks the splendid dig nity of Kipling's hymn. Mir. Prentice gives programmes of unusual merit and interest and he is singularly for tunate in having at his command all the necessary accessories of a double chorus choir. a ehaneel choir of boys and a gallery choir of mixed voices with a selo quartette, a fine organ and an orchestra.
