Symphony orchestra of which Mr..
Carl Denton, brother of Mr.. w. A. Den
ton of this city, is one Of the conduc-
tors. The orchestra has fifty-fye in
struments and will give in this city the
first concert ever presented in the
state outside Of Portland, by an or
chestra Of such magnitude and ability
The concert will include Rimsky-Kor-
sakow's "Antar' symphony, a number
which has never been played west Of
Chicago, and which Is especially
worthy of attention as it is typical Of
the new Russian school Of music. The
symphony is ideal program music, be-
ing highly descriptive, and deals with
the adventures of the Persian warrior,
Antar, in the Serian desert. The Incl
dental music to "A Midsummer Nights
Dream" which has always been among
the daintiest and most charming in or
chestral literature, will be included in
the program in response to many re-
quests.
