SYMPHONY HAS EARNED
GENEROUS SUPPORT
Mr.. Wadsworth's Strong Statement
on Its Behalf.

Under the caption. "An Appeal to All
Lovers OF Music" Herbert wadsworth
has issued the following plea for the
support TO which the Washington SYM
phony Orchestra is entitled:
About a year since Mr.. De Koven con-
ceived the idea OF forming a Washington
symphony Orchestra. composed essen
tally OF washington musicians-1nusi-
clans dwelling in Washington. small
sum was procured to cover the imme-
date expenses and a sufficient guaran-
tee fund underwritten TO enable the
scheme to take the form. you know.
Mr. De Koven has given his time
with 1T muneration. and probably no
one but himself suspects the amount OF
work he has done in organizing and in
structing the gentlemen who are asso-
ciated with him in the orchestra Mr..
Droop also has given his time as treas
urer and business manager under the
same conditions, and I can vOuch that
The work has been no comfort 10 the
private business of either of them.
After the really remarkable success
OF the concerts given this season. which
have certainly SHOWN beyond question
or comment that all promises for a
thoroughly Sampctc7t ard efficient or
chestra in Washh gton on the original
plans laid down have been more than
made good. the giiarantors feel conf
dent in appealing 90 all music lovers and
public-spiTited citizens and those inter
ested in the development Of musical
Washington for funds either in the form
of a guarantee or subscriptions neces-
sary 20 assure the maintenance and con-
tinuance Of the orchestra for the com
ing season Of 1904
After the work done this season. #
would be a manifest injustice TO Mr.. De
Koven and the members OF the orchestra
who have labored earnestly and faithfully
to provide Washington with much need
ed musical opportunities. to say nothing
Of the reflection thereby cast on our
town as q music-loving community, IL
the concerts we're to be discontinued
next season for lack OF proper and
needed support.
The work done By the orchestra this
season under Mr.. De Koven's leadership
has hot only justified its continued ex-
/ istence as permanent local Institution.
! but also given 81 a justified claim on the
/ interest and support Of the community"
