The 1861 course will be under the
personal direction of DR.. Hamlin E.

Washington public schools. DIR. Cogs-
well will be assisted in the work by
DIR. Lewis H. Chernoff. concert master
Of the orchestra. who will act also as
assistant director. DR.. Cogswell an
nounces that at the earlier rehearsals
he will take up music of lighter char
acter, to be followed later in the sea-
son by heavier and more difficult
numbers from both the classical and
modern school,
None but the best of any kind will
be studied by the orchestra, but the
works will bs limited to music within
the technique of the average musician,
SO that no attempt will be made to play
music of extreme difficulty. The COM
positions to be studied will, in addi-
ton to works Of Haydn, Beethoven
and other old masters. include the
works of American composers and also
some descriptive pieces.
All musicians of the city, both ana
teur and professional, are cordially in
vited to join the orchestra, and the di-
rectors wish to make it clear that the
District Orchestra will in no wise enter
into competition with the several pri-
vate orchestras Of the city established
on business basis for pay. The one
