Here is a statement which comes with official
sanction from Boston, touching the concerts
given by the Boston Symphony Orchestra I'M
der the direction of NJ Vincent dIndy: The
last pair Of concerts were distinctly of special
order having been devoted entirely to modern
French music. and under the personal direction
of Mr. Vincent d'Indy. While critical opinion re-
garding this music is by no means unanimous,
the management is thoroughly content with the
result of the experiment, for the bringing of Mr.
dIndy TO this country gave an unusual FLIP OF
interest to the season. But il is necessary to
correct an impression which seems TO have be-
come more or less general, that the coming OF
Mr.. dIndy meant the beginning Of a new pollcy
in the nanag cement of the orchestra and that
guest conductors Will be u feature OF every
season. This is not at all true. SO far as can
be seer the policy OF the orchestra in the future
will be the that of the past. Inc success
Of the orchestra has proved conclusively that
best results are obtainable only when a banu
works continuously under one conductor. II IS
possible in there should be another Scnool
OF composition as distinctive and special as that
Of the younger Frenchmep. that the Boston
symphony Orchestra would invite It's chleI e&-
ponent 10 conduct series of its concerts IN TINS
music as II did Mr. d'Indy. But the ldea Oh

baby Of eighteen months he could pick out

babies a year and a half old have pounded the
keyboard and sung 'goo-goo,' though all ala
not have press agents 10 turn such infant1Ie per
formances into set tunes. Here is sometnlhs
more amazing: AT three, when his parents
called in Joachim to ask him for advice as ~
their prodigy, he amazed that master by trans
posing composition OF Brahms without even
the assistance of notes. At four, with the as

platform. AT that point in his progress Joachl!l!

curiosity than anything that ever was IN Bar

on Boehme's mystical philosophy and the AttIo

has been made thorough since?
