 The Bridgeport Standard of yesterday says: There was only a small attend ance at the musicale given at the Brooklawn Country club Saturday af- ternopn, this in sall probability being due to the inclemency of the weather. The programme presented was of un- usual merit. Selections were sung by Miss Helen York, contralto, and Henry Storm, baritone. and ladies' quartette, composed of Mrs Frederick Atwater, Mrs. F. P. Lyon, Miss Eaton and Miss Gable. Miss York who is from New Haven, was the guest of Mrs. Nash over Sunday. She greatly pleased those of the members of the club who heard her sing, and they regret the fact that so few were present. MT. Storm and the quartette were also well received"
 The musical season in Hartford opened Saturday afternoon with fash ionabe concert at Hosmer hall. It was a trio concert, two of the artists fur nished from New Haven, Isadore Troostwyk, violinist; Leo Schultz, eel list, and Edward Moves, pianist. The Hartford Courant in commenting on the work of these musicians says:
 The opening number was Beetho- von's "rrio S Flat Major, op. l." pre- senting a delightful allegro movement as introductory and suggestive of the theme, followed by an adagio cantabile that carried a song movement of great beauty, played by the artists with deli cacy of touch and warmth of feeling. The scherzo was just bit, the com position closing with a finale that was noble and dignfied. The interpretation by the trio was satisfactory, the bal ance of parts between the piano, violin { and vlolincello being kept well in hand, the trio showing much consideration for each other to use homely term. In this respect the trio exceeded some of its work last season.
 The second number was Anton Rub- | instein's "Sonate for Violin and Piano G Hajor, op. 13," played by MT. Troost- wyk and MT. Noyes a composition re- quiring great brilliancy of technique for . the violin, which MT. Troostwyk accom- plished with astonishing certainty and ease. MT. Moves also had opportunity to display his art at the plano and his playing was strong, more than an &C., compartment, carrying tho swing of the theme with profound conviction. The number was enthusiastically cheered and musicians congratulated each other at it's close, as well they might, for pre- senting so sure and strong a perform ance.
 The closing number was the melodi- ous, delightful "Schumann Trio in D Minor, op. 63,' and it was the most satisfactory composition the trio has
