DR.. Karl Muck led the Boston Sym

the season II e at Carnegie Hall last
night.
The orchestra's programme consisted
Of the Brahms Fourth symphony, which
DR.. Muck led with fine effect, the band
never sounding more resonant or per-

"Parsifal."
IL was not exactly an exhilarating
programme, but 70 exhilaration, except
that given by perfection OF execution,
DR.. Muck has never been partial.
The difference of treatment accorded
enemy musicians in Germany and
America was evidenced az the song re-
cital in Aeolan Hall. given by the
former Wilfrid Douthit, who. though
an Englishman, prefers now TO be
known as Louis Graveure, a Belgian.

I am reminded that an essential

problem is that Of encouraging the

Musical Masters MeIangc.

Just how do composers go about
putting their music thots on paper?
Hayden, 1t is said, never worked except
in full dress. He would shave and
powder himself, put a certain valua-
BILE ring on his finger, then shut him
self in a quiet room for few hours
where he could work in peace Wag-
ner was also dandy, and robed him
self in gorgeous dressing gowns. but
he did his composition standing at a
desk. Victor Herbert has a top room
In high New York building; he plays
himself into composing mood, and
then stands at a desk like Wagner.
Rossini composed while travelling in
u carriage, but also wrote some of
his music while lying in bed. Men
delssohn planned his words clearly In
mind before beginning to write and
then wrote remarkably clean manu-
script. Beethoven was very untidy,
and worked slowly; a notebook left
by him shows that he worked often
for years over a single melody before
1t took the shape he wanted.
Chopin also wrote with extreme
care, but he produced only a very
small quantity as compared with Mem
delssohn. Mozart. Bellini and Weber,
all of whom died. as did Chopin, be-
fore they were forty. Nevertheless,
almost every note Chopin wrote is
still in active use, tho 1t Is nearly
century old.
