Detroit Orchestra
Shows Improvement

Excellent results were obtained
by Conductor Weston Gales. with
the Detroit Symphony orchestra.
Thursday afternoon. IN the Detroit
opera house. In the placing Of his
wood wind choir and part Of the
brass. on an elevated platform At the
back OF the stage. This arrange
ment Of his forces proved highly de-
sirable for the program given. espe-
cialiy In the group OF four Wagner
numbers.
Mr.. Gales evidently has labored
diligently with the brass. the least
satisfactory material rs a unit that
he has, and the work OF this part OF
the orchestra was greatly improved
over earlier concerts. In the wag-
ner scores the brass plays a most
important part, and IN view Of the
uncertainty OF this division OF the
orchestra, and the criticisms made
OF IL At previous hearings. IL was
o courageous thing for Mr.. Gales 10
select the numbers he did for the
fifth concert, and TO hazard so much
on the performance Of the brass. II
vas q severe test and one which
the players came through with great
credit.
The program began with Moxart's
Symphony In Z dat. and although
the four movements are supposed 10
be played continuously the pleasure
OF listening to the music was con-
s.derahly marred In the fact that It's
continuity was broken by the seat
ing OF late corners. and more or less
applause. These untoward annoy
apees trritated the conductor and
his men, as well as that portion OF
the audience early in It's seats and
content TO wait until the end OF the
symphony 10 express appreciation In
applause.
OF the four movements OF the sym
phony the menuetto and allegro re
ceived the best rendition. The pre-
cissness Of the menuetto was de
lightfuiiy played and the players
seemed In especial sympathy with
the sprightliness and gay spirit OF
the allegro.
But. IL was the admirable playing
of the overture to '-Tannhauser~ that
brought the greatest show of favor
frcm the audience. Mr.. Gales and
his men stood several times to &C.
