THE PHILHARMONIC SOCIETY.

There were interesting real and quasi novelties
in the programme OF the sixth concert Of the Phil
harmonic Society, to which Mozarts Jupiter
Symphony was permitted to serve a hllip yet
the audience was the smallest OF the season. The
circumstance was deplorabe for the sake OF most
of the music, and also the solo performer, Mr. Har-
old Bauer who again proved himself a superb
techncian and, what is much better. keenly
analytical. tasteful and poetic musician. 1t would
be perhaps a bit venturesome to say that poss-
bly, the policy which Mr.. Paur is enforcing In re-
spect of productions IS more or less respons-
BILE for the want of interest manifested by the
public in this concert for. If the motives OF per-
sens present in a musical gathering are sometimes
difficult of analysis. those of the absent must al
ways be- But Mr.. Paur disclosed confidence in
his policy both Friday afternoon and again
last night by taking quick advantage of an OPP
portunity TO repeat the novelty which was nearest
his heart and for the sake of which he seemed TO
be willing to have the society fail in promise
made in it's prospectus. Instead of the announced
symphony by Naprawnik, he gave another Strauss
number
1t was new; It proved interesting. all things
by the young Munich revolutionary are; but 1t was
an excerpt OF opera dhe final pages Of "Feurs-
moth" produced at Dresden last November), and
being a scenic bit designed TO accompany and
illustrate picture and a situation which do not
admit of detailed analysis. its inclusion in the
scheme of a symphonic concert may have raised
a question OF propriety in minds of enough of the
society's subscribers to account for few hundred
concert II is a pitable fact TO record, but there
would be no kindness in concealment. The Strauss
excerpt is another case OF striking mastery in
workmanship. A few moments Of really poetical
charm then a lapse into time of folk-song char
acter admirably fitted to the dramatic story which
prompted its employment and the rest sonorous
development of this tune in manner prompted
by the dramatic situation which the audience was
not permitted to know.
Mr.. Bauer showed his musicanship in choosing
Schimann's maligned but noble COnCertStuck Op
90 for a first number. and playing it with fine
probation of it's poetic beauties. Afterward he
gave proof of his fine virtuososhp In bringing for
ward Liszt's alternately bizarre and fascinating
variations on the melody of the mediaval church
hymn "Dies Irae," which he dubbed THE Dance
of Death" and made believe were translation
into tones of fresco in the Campo Santo at Pisa,
but for which Holbein's pictures were long per-
mitted to serve as a programme without loss to
the music which shows amazing knowledge OF
the effects obtainable by combination or the
modern panoforte and orchestra. Wagner's

MR. PADEREwsKrs FIRST RECITAL.

@AiN' 1AOE~TNE-N w Ohl FIRST l..
Mr.. Paderewski is bound to be a pervasive per-
sonality in the remainder Of New-York's musical
season. The production of his opera on Friday
evening served TO mark climax OF popular and
professional interest. The people who heard and
saw II were as numerous the law would permit
to enter the Metropolitan Opera House Yesterday
afternoon he gave the first of his pianoforte re-
citals in Carnegie Hail. and again the vast audience
room was crowded. Next Thursday there will be a
repetition OF "Manru' at the Metropolitan Opera
House as an extra representation, and next Satur-
day afternoon Mr.. Paderewski will participate in a
concert Of the Boston Symphony Orchestra both
composer and performer.

binty OF temperament and sanity OF behavior

years that New-York has known him II will be time

holy calm, quieted his temporary mental tur-

Only this marred the performances OF the great
virtuoso but Il seemed 70 have a saddeninB effect
upon the audience. which did not give way 10 the
oldtime demonstrations OF delight until the printed
list OF pieces had been exhausted The fact was
not necessarily deplorable. Rapt and reverential
listening is a loveler tribute by far to such music
as Mr.. Paderewsk gave to his auditors in the

enemy of aesthetic delight. These pieces. and the
