Boston Symphony Orchestra,

The concert of the Boston Symphony Or
chestra at the National Theater yesterday
afternoon was attended by a large and
brilliant audience, including the President
and Mrs. Roosevelt. The program offered
was of the extreme French school and
there was not a number that was familiar
TO any In the audience except the must
clans. AS Mr.. Vincent dIndy was the
conductor. IT was but natural that such
should be the case IL he had the making
OF the program, and It Is but justice to the
organization to say that the numbers could
not have been better played and to the
conductor that they each received the best
Interpretation.
II Is a question as to what rank the
French school OF composition shall take in
the musical world. Some of the effects re-
su.ting from the combination of instru-
ments are remarkably fine notably the
idea of exploiting a theme upon the wood
wind or brass with a background of deli
cate embroidery of figurework on tbs
strings, but the climaxes are usually mere
noise without definite purpose or irrelevant
to the subject under treatment. There

gether than anything else
Then lie spoke OF the recent Harvard
Yale foot bail game, which he witnessed,
and told of the splendid spirit shown by

orchestra of nearly fifty musicians will
start the brilliant descriptive prelude at

last act may be rung down shortly after

sung at night Conductor Schenck as
sumes the baton al T:30 pm. the last cur
tain falling at III o'clock. The prelude
is part of the first act. and not an over
ture Its sweeping melody tells the story
of the wild storm In the forest and Sleg-
mund's flight from his pursuers: The
curtain rises while the storm music pic
lures the fierce battle of the elements,
and the action of the opera starts at once
with the hurried entrance of Siegmund
to the sheltering abode of Sieglinde. The
management urges all patrons to show
their appreciation of this performance by
being in their seats in time to hear the
opera from the very beginning. Wagner
insisted on beginning the Ring dramas
at j: 30 o'clock in the afternoon. and TINS
