tains few Of the things to indicate the
peculiar trend of his genius. The "Ri-
enzp overture, however, is a colorful
bit of writing with plenty Of action and
much vivid detail work through it. As
played last night by the Philadelphia

full value and there was not dull mo-

one, that required genius TO be conduct

given it's full value.
