Interest in the orchestra and its com
mendable work is growing apacc. Every
body who went to the first concert will
certainly no to the next and take their
friends, and the hail will undoubtedly be
taxed. to it's utmost capacity The SYM
phouy Tuesday will be Schubert's "Un-
finished" in b minor, which consists OF
two movements and nine bars of q third,
and was composed in 1922, but remained
In manuscript and unknown until 1867.
IT has no Introductory movement. The
allegro. commences at once with mys-
terlous passage on the 'cellos and basses,

melody Of pathetic, yet gypsy-lilie, char

by the violins. The second theme, a
charming, artless melody, is complete
contrast to the first, except in tender
ness and beauty. 1t is first heard in the
'cellos. accompanied by a syncopated
rhythm in the violins and clarinets. The
second movement, andante con moto,
is less tragic, but not less touching. 1t
opens with phrase in the horns, and
leads into the melody of the principal
theme given out by the violins.

floating in the eternal fields. :.
Schubert appears, in the greatness and
power of his feeling united with gentle
lyric element that was like scarlet
thread through his work; as a noble,
