BRAHMS-bEETHOVEN
A Day of Ideal Chamber
Music.

Tho concerts OF yesterday which mao
significance were devoted to chamber
music. and by a happy coincidence the
three rs OF Hans Won Bulows idolatrN
held the chief places on the programmes.
In the afternoon at Aeol.sn Hall Eugene
Ysaye and Rudolph CAM gave a concert
and together PLAYED Brahms's sonata IN
u minor mot \ major as the programme
would have had the audience believe). ana
Beethovcn's "Kreutzer." Between these
monumental works Mr.. CAM introduced

announcement on the famous theme
which Bach loved so we'll that lac used IL
i'm his cantata "Welnen. klagen,' the
"Crucifxus' OF his great mass in Il minor
and his harpsichord capriccio. which 10

which the music received. the names OF
the players ought 10 provide a sufficient
encomium. il was AS beautiful as II was

was because Nj. Adler in the Brahms
