American composers, including Charles
Martin Loeffler and John Alden Car
rcnter. Nine. Povla Frjsh is the
soloist.
The final recital, which like the first
and third will be given at the Ritz,
will be devoted to choral music, sacred
and secular, of the medieval Neither
iandish school and its Italian offshoot,
and will include works by Aichinger,
Josquin de Pres and Palestrna. 1t will
be directed by the Swiss composer, Mr..
Ernest Bloch, who has made such
deep study Of the a capella music of
this period, with view to discovering
it's peculiar beauties of voice leading
SO often neglected in performance
nowadays.
1t is probable that additional recitals
outside the regular concert series will
be announced later. The usual privi-
legcs of membership will be extended
to members this season, as last.
In its present season the society has
sought to concentrate it's attention
even more closely than before on the
work which 1t has chosen-the cultiva-
tion of music which is, in both senses
of the word, "rare." The three private
concerts, though fewer in number than
last season, will each represent months
OF arduous work on the part Of the
artists who take part.

Boston Symphony Orchestra

fAiter weeks Oh delay, due principally
TO conditions brought about by the
war, the Boston Symphony Orchestra is
az ie to make announcement of its plans
tor the series of concerts to be given
III Carnegie Hall, this city, during the
coming winter. AS is generally known,
Henry l.. Higginson, who founded the
orchestra and through all its life main
tanned it, retired last spring from all
active participation in it's affairs. and
the maintenance and government were
taken over by a board Of nine trustees,
composed of prominent men in Boston,
who, In turn, represented a large num-
Der Il other men, and thus assured the
orchestra its continuance under the old
coE1ltlons. Many changes have been
made in the personnel, but those who
have heard the orchestra in rehearsal
tnink it is stronger than ever. The
presence in America of the famous
French Military Band enabled the Bos-
ton Symphony Orchestra to secure sew
eral of it leading members. Fredric
fradkin, the American violinist, is now
concert master. The 'cello section is
headed by Joseph Malkin. The viola
ion has as it's leader Mr.. Barrere.
who IS now ON his way from Paris; and
the second violin section has as its
leader Edward TAX, who for number
OF years has been one of the strongest
members of the first violin section. A
number of changes have been made
in the wood wind sections, but the
brass remains substantially the same as
in the past. AS already announced, the,
permanent conductor will be Henri
Rabaud, the distinguished French COM
poser and conductor, who for the past
seven years has been principal con-
ductor for the Grand Opera in Paris.
Mr.. Rabaud will be late in arriving.
therefore the early concerts of the or
chestra. including the first concerts in
New York, will be under the direction
of Pierre Montoux, of the Metropolitan
Opera Company, whose services have
been made available to the Boston
Symphony Orchestra through the cour-
tesy of Mr.. Gatti- Casazza, general man.

pany.
The orchestra will give it's usual
series of five Thursday evening and five

November T, December 5, January 9.
February and March 20. The after
| noon concerts fall on November 9. De-
cember Z, January II, February and

Notices of renewals of subscriptions
have been sent to all of last years
subscribers to the Symphony Orchestra,
and the response has been immedia
and gratifying. In past years the sub
scrlption has been filled and closed early
IN the summer, but this year, owing
to uncertainty as to the conductor.
the sending of notices has been greatly
delayed. Subscribers to last years
concerts are given until October 10 in
which to renew their subscriptions and
retain the seats they had last year.
There is the usual waiting Its of pro-
spective patrons which, curiously
