A Review of a Successful and Nota-
 ble Year.
 The musical season which ended with the Lund concert on June 16 was the most complete and successful in the history of music at Yale. Beginning with the first term concerts have been held at frequent intervals. The whole season has included thirty concerts, while last year there were but twenty.
 On: November the New Haven Ora torio society opened the year with a splendid production of Handers Mes siah." The list of soloists embraced such noted singers as Miss Marie Zim- merman, Mis- Janet Spencer, MT. Fries son Bushnell and MT. Nicholas Dough- ty. The chorus of two hundred and fif- ty voices, accompanied by the New Haven Symphony orchestra, and with Professor Jepson as organist, produced an effect that was wonderful.
 The work of the New Haven Sympho- ny orchestra Is deserving of much cred lit, ts the five concerts given by that so-
 ciety were received with excellent com ment. Of the productions of thisr soci- ety the following were the leading so- lloists: Miss Rio, MT. Harold Bauer, Professor Troostwyls, Miss Powell and
 David Bispham.
 During the year two concerts were
 given by the Kneisel quarettte and two by the Adamowski trio. These con- certs are organized each season for the purpose of presenting the great works of string duartettes and other combina- tions of solo instruments. The Ada mowski trio issconnpbsed is of Mime. szu- mowska, plano; J. Adamowski violin; and I. Adamowski, violincello
 One of the most liked productions of the year was that of the Boston Sym phony orchestra on. March P. MT. 1 William Gericke acted in the capacity of conductor, with Professor Horat1o Parker as organist and MT. George Proctor as pianist. Following close on to this was the production of Bach S Passion music, in which the superb singing of Mr. Hyrsen De Moss, sopra- Inc; Mrs. Gertrude Stein Bailey, con- tralto; MT. Nicholas Doughty, tenor; MT. Gwilyrn Miles, baritone, and Mir.
 Ericsson Bushnell, basso, was heard. The greatest success of the year was Undoubtedly the song recital given by MT. David Bispharn on April 27. It is a well known fact that critics consider MT. Bispham the greatest operatic bar itone and one of the greatest singers of the world to-day His programme in cluded twenty songs selected from such composers as Wagner, Schubert, Wolf, Jensen and Handel.
 Other events of the year were the concerts of the Choral Union and of the students of the Yale Department of Music. The singing of the cantata's Ere Kings Daughter" and "Phan- drig Crohoore" at the Choral Union concert were especially well received. The students of the Music school showed the result of their excellent
 training in one of the most delightful concerts ever produced at Yale.
 The important part occupied by the organ recitals must not be overlooked.
 They were fifteen in number, nine be- ing by Professor. Jepson and single re- citals being given by each of the fol- lowing: Professor Horatio Parker, MT. EdwinH. Lemare, Mir. J.,Fred Wolfe. MT. Gaston M. Dethier, Mr. Wallace
 Goodrich and MT. Will O.. Macfarlane. The brilliant season was closed with the Lund concert at the Hyperion the
 ater on June IS. This concert was giv- en by the students of the Swedish Uni versity of Lund, and was well received,
 being fitting end for. a commemorate season.
 The position which Yale now holds in
 music is one unequaled by any other
