The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1904-04-24
MUSICAL NOTES.

T h e Glo b e has received the follow
ing communication from Myron McMil-
Ian, librarian of the ST. Paul Choral club,
who kept the record Of attendance at the
meeting Monday night I'm order to cor
rect the erroneous impression which has
gone forth that there was illegal voting
1 wish to state that at $50, when the
meeting was called to order, the record
showed eighty-fVe present. From that
time until after the election at 1890 1
did not make a recount. When called
upon for information l gave what knew
to be the attendance at $3.50, but after
careful investigation / find that the num-
Der present. was at least 112. OF these
100 were checked off on the record sheet
kept by myself and another member, and
twelve came in through other doors or
before we began to take the record. We
can easily show that the attendance of
voting members was at least 112 that
night, and as the number of votes cast
for president was 10, there was no truth
In the report that votes were Illegally
cast
volckmar's ''Festintrade' will be played
for the first time in ST. Paul at the COR
cert to be. given Tuesday evening, May
byterian church. The composition is writ
and will be played by G. H. Fairclough
and Herbert Foster Sprague.
The two programmes played by William
Mentor Crosse at st. Agatha's Friday
closed for this season the conservatory's
entertainment course. The matinee pro-
gramme included the Beethoven sonato
Cop. 3D; Schumann's Symphonic Etudes
and the Balikerew Fantasia Oriental. In
sented the most popular works of num-
Der of famous composers. Both pro-
grammes were most satisfactorily pre-
sented and proved an interesting climax
to a brilliant series.

symphony orchestra expressed himself as
delighted with the playing and offered
him a position in his orchestra next fall
Mr.. Bergh leaves the latter part of May
or the first of June for New York. It is
very probable that the musicians of ST.

| before he leaves, as all are appreciative
of the work Mr.. Bergh has done in help
ing to create here musical atmosphere
congenial to talent.
