 The program for the season of 1912 1913 is exceedingly interesting and covers a wide field of musical enter tainrnent and instruction: as usual, there are to be four artist concerts and two lecture recital programs.
 The first artist concert will be on November 18th and will be given by Mischa Elnlan, the celebrated Russian Violinist. EAman is considered to be one of the greatest living artists. He vii be assisted by Charles Granville of New York, baritone, well known a. an oratorfo and song recital artist.
 The following month, on December 11th, most interesting lecture recital on Chopin; that interesting and wond erful master, whose works all musi- clans have played and who furnishes a never ending source of enjoyment and instruction to the student and 1is- tener. Antoinette S9unaowska, thes Po- fish pianfste, has been engaged to give this recital. She is we'll konwn in this country and has played a great deal throughout New England, both in solo and in trio work. She is the who, with his brother, Timothy, forms the famous Adamowsk trio of Boston. She came to this country as the fa- vorite and only pupil of Paderewski sical centers Of Europe. Her lesson recitals consist of two parts; a short characteristics of the composer and di- rect analysis of the phrasing and tonal value. the use of pedal and other points of Importance. Then the com positions are played throughout,s thus giving the general effect.
 The second artist concert will be on January 9th. and will be given by Miss Mildred Potter. contralto and MT. Charles Harrison, tenor. Miss a glorious voice of wide range and beutiful7 quality She is doing fine work as church and oratorio singer. She has given recitals throughout New England and the West. MT. Harri son is tenor soloist at the Brick Church, New York, and oratorio singer of wide experience
 In February the third artist con cert will be given by German Schnit- ger, pianiste. Miss schnit1er has rare skill in her art, and still rarer individ- quality. At fourteen years of age she took first prize at the Paris Con- servatory- She has great clearness and br11llanCy or tOuCh and eVenneES of arpegEdos. Her technique is at once convincing, so that the interest in it is associated with her interpretation. Sel- dom does any pianiste display both strength and tenderness, but Miss Schnitzer displays both these with deep poetical instinct.
 The second lecture recital will be given the following month by Carl Fique, whose subject has not yet been announced. MT. Ffque is a member of the Brooklyn Institute and is well known as a lecturer on the Wagner opera, the symphonies and orchestral work.
 The fourth and last artist concert will be given on April 9th and will consist of four well known singers, namely: Miss Grace Kerns. soprano; Mrs. MarshaH Pease, contralto; Will liam Pagdin, tenor; and Clifford Cairns, baritone. The nature of this recital has not yet been. announced, but it is sure to be a rare treat in quartette work At the piano will be Charles Gilbert Spross.
 This is just a slight sketch of the outside talent to be heard here. and it is by no means to be thought that the local talent will not furnish quite as interesting programs in their way as those of the visiting artists.
 This year ethe committee have en- gagged the Lyric Theatre as the place in which their concerts are to be given, and the cooperation of the peo- pie is earnestly desired. as the expen- ses will be greater than in former years
