And chortled then in accents gruG:

MUSIC
The Ksleisel Quartet.

A musical event that will be wei |
coined .rby all who love, the beautiful
and artistic in music will be the ap-
pearance of the famous Kneisel string
quartet, Oct. IA, under the auspices
of the Thursday & Musical. The club
the reach of every music lover and !
give liberal reduction to it's mem
bers, so that no one need be deprived
of hearing these musicians who have
reached the perfection of quartet
playing.
With but one exception these men
have been playing together for over
twelve years until not even the famous
H holds s any higher rank AMI in the estima,
ton of the musical world. The mem
bers of the quartet have been leading
PLAYERS with the Boston Symphony or
ehestra, and during the illness of Mr..
Gericke, Mr.. Kneisel conducted the
orchestra with great success:
was soloist with the famous Vienna
Philharmonic orchestra, and later was
heard with other great orchestras of
Europe. In 1885 Mr.. Kneisel, then
| only 20 years old, became concert mas
ter of Boston's great orchestra, po-
sition which he held until last year,
when he, with the other members Of
| Cu0 uudIUcG, ISo1SuOSt w oOVoCO OIAOth
time exclusively to quartet and solo
work. .
The quartet especially wished to
make a trial of its skill as quartet
players in the larger musical capitals
of Europe, having already achieved
an immense success in London, but the
tour was cut short owing to the death
of Mr.. Kneisel's son.
| For personal reasons Mr.. Knelsel
preferred to stay in America this year,
and thus the Thursday Musical is en-
abled to open it's season with this
famous organization.
Philharmonic Plans.
The Philharmonic club will begin
rehearsals as soon as it's conductor,
Emil Oberhoffer, returns from the east,
where he has gone in the interests OF
the club and the Minneapolis Sym
phony orchestra. :.
HAYDN s oratorio, t9The Creation"
will be given at the first concert nc It -
Edgar Elgar, which the club will pre-
sent during the season, is one of the
great modern works, and one which
will live thru coming generations, it
is predicted. AS yet it has been given
but twice in America and then, owing
to it's extreme difficulty, only by old
and experienced societies: Mr.. ODER
hotter has the utmost faith in the
ability Of his chorus to sing the work
neapolis Symphony orchestra, believes
that the great work will be given the
int probation its merit deserves. :,
Verdi IS NAida' in concert form will
be another novelty. Those who re
member the fine performance the clut
gave of 'eSamson and Delilaho last
season will look forward to this pre-
sentation Of Verdi's great dramatic
opera.
The soloists for the three concerts
will be those who have already
achieved success in the chosen works
and with the support of the Sym
phony orchestra, the club anticipate
the most brilliant choral season in tn
history of the city.
