Opening the Philharmonic course for
this its eleventh consecutive season,
November q, comes Arthur Hartman,
the Bohemian violinist, who was heard
here some two years ago win such
keen pleasure when he appeared as one
of the artists on this same course.
Hartman's first tour of America after
ten years of success abroad brought 10
us q man of modest and unassuming
demeanor, and yet in that time, during
ten years of unprecedented success ana
ovation, he managed to master four
languages, not only speaking but also
writing them f1uently, and to familiar
lie himself with the masterpieces OF
Shakespeare, Goethe, Moliere and
Jokai, as we'll as Turgenieff and Dosto-
jewslxi. And this year, according to
all reports, he comes back to us just
the same manly man, but a greater
artist than ever,

The Los Angeles Symphony orchestra
had so large a subscription on its books
this year that they start out with re-
newed enthusiasm and will be heard IN
teh first concert of the season Friday
afternoon at the Auditorium.
Conductor Hamilton has planned one
of the most auspicious seasons ever
given to Los Angeles in symphony
work, introducing many novelties never
before given in Los Angeles, and yet,
to use his own words, IT do not want
the public to think we have become
mad, for. on the contrary, our pro-
grams will have many of the old tried
and true composers with their best
compositions"
Emilio de Gogorza will be the soloist
for the first concert. and Judging from
the box office receipts up to the pres
ent time a greater favorite could not
have been secured. Many will remem-
ber Gogorza's first work on the Pa
cific coast, when he appeared with
Emma Eames, and first through his
own personality and then on account
of his singing made such an excellent
impression that when he returned here
two years ago in concert he received
an ovation.
This favorite American baritone will
sing two solos with orchestral accom-
paniment-the prologue to "Pagliaccf
and ''Visions Fugitive" The complete
orchestra program follows:
Ramayana suite in five scenes, "Ayo-
dhya at Daybreak," "Rama and Sita
in the Forest" 1.-THE Monkey War, a
"Mandodari's Lament" 1.-THE Return to
Ayodhya" (Shapleigh); Yorspiel to 10
appasionata, adagio, scherzo presto
A minor, op. 55, introduction, allegro
appasionata, adagio, scherzo phesto
finale, prestissimo (Salnt-Saens).

The Appolo club of Boston opened the
present season the evening Of Novem-
ber with the two hundredth concert
Of the organization.
The opinion of the Boston corre-
spondent of the Musical Leader and
Concert Goer concerning Adela Verne
the pianist, who is to appear in Los
Angeles December with the Woman's
orchestra, is Of interest and is given
herewith:
"The young English pianist. Miss
Adela Verne, made her local debut In
Jordan hall and quickly gave evidence
that she was an artist who meriteo
serious consideration. Miss Verne's
technical skill is high grade, hei
touch is exquisitely dainty and crisT
when required, as was shown in hel
charming performance of the quaint
old time harpischord group in Liszi
etude, and to somewhat less extent
in the scherzo part of the Chopin So
nata. Well equipped in the lighter
forms of her art she does not LACK
power in fortissimo passages and she
colors her interpretations Judiciously
In addition,to the numbers before men,
toned commendation is due her for q
splendidly verile exposition OF Staccatc
figuring in the Rubinstein etude anc
for brilliancy and celerity in execut'
ing the double runs in The Wind,
AIkan's snowy finger exercise"

Adelisande," will be produced at the frs
