TBv Telegraph 70 The tribune. !


Cincinnati Nav 5.-There was only one
festival concert to-day. and that of q char

Before this she sang the air Eco il

often been condemned and deplored 10y the
music reviewers of New York. There is
no Datience left for another discussion. 1t
is a pity that so fine an artist as Nine
schunann- Henk should set so bad an
example as she has done with this air all
over the country
Later she sang the stsnzas from Gou-

overture is the only piece this list that
did not have two or more performances in
New York in the season just ended. 1t
deserves a place in at least one of next

we'll as its solid qualities, was finely ex-
plotted by Mr.. Stock. who in the c minor
