BELFAST PHILHARMONIC ASSOCIATION For
the benefit of those interested in the Belfast
Philharmonic Association it has been thought
best to make public the following outline of
the work of the association during the past
year: Many have confused this society with
the Belfast Musical Society. Others have
thought it had taken the place of the old
Musical Society. but matter of fact it is
separate organization, having members from
the Musical Society and the band, besides
many members belonging to neither of the
other societies. Under the auspices of this
association the opera "Mikado" was success
fully given in February, 1915. and again July
30th. The Chapman concert last season was
also under the auspices of this organization.
This season the association conducted a Ly-
ceum Course, which was in accordance with
the aim OF the society to promote the best in
music and other arts which elevate the moral
standard of the community. This expensive
course not only paid for itself, but there is
good working balance in the treasury SO that
an even better course may be planned for
another season. The association has recently
engaged Miss Gertrude Mcclure of Ranoor
violinist. to conduct rehearsas of the orches.
trail club. This is an excellent opportunity for
young musicians playing orchestral instru.
ments to get practice in ensemble PLAYING.
and it is hoped many of our young people will
become members.
