The Young Peoples symphony Concert.

The third Of the symphony concerts for young
people. conducted by Mr.. Frank Damrosch.
which took place yesterday afternoon at Car
neGic Hall. was attended by a large audience.
composed mainly Of grown folk.
That there is a fold for such concerts was
demonstrated by the artistic success OF similar
essays a number OF years ago by Theodore
Thomas and more recently by sam Frankie.
Mr.. Damrosch's concerts differ from those
mentioned in that he ~prefaccs each movement
or selection with an explanatory talk. While
this is intended to give his hearers n better
understanding Of the work TO be performed. IL
il possible that the contrary effect is produced,
for many a little head was seen to move
impatiently while Mr.. Damrosch spoke OF con
s]truction and couuterpoint and elucidated
technical terms.
The principal number on the rrogrammc
was BeethOven's Eighth symphony. Mr..
DAmrosch's oral exposition impressed his
hearers with the beauties OF the symphony
more effectively than the orchestra did by It's
PLAYING. which was loose and disJointed.
An unexpected feature of the symphony per-
formanco was the Introduction OF "A quartet uf
women singing the canon whose theme II the
same as the opening theme OF the AAegrettO.
The only other orchestral bers were the
two well-known Hungarian dances by Brahms.
Mr.. Arthur Whiting was the soloist. He
played "A number OF little piano pieces by Schu-
mann. and delighted his hearers. Mr.. Whit
lngIs selections were appropriately chosen, and
he rendered them in an admirable manner.
