inal tunes in a manner that should be
interesting. The work is. in one move
ment. 1t contains four themes. Mr..
Powell has marked his score by two
Introductory themes. First, "Street
Cry"; this is followed by a Dance
Tune" Then comes the principal
theme. There is a second theme and

It's Seuenty-Sixh Year
Appeals to Music Louers Outside Its
Members to Help Clear Deficit, Which
Runs Up to $50, 0OO-Entire Organizo-
tion American
fion American

The New York Philharmonic Society
has made the following appeal through
The Tribune:
The society is now about to close its
seventy-sixth year of life and service
md the total number of concerts given
have numbered about twelve hundred
and fifty. The attendance at the New
York concerts alone is approximately
10000 people annually. (
The officers, directors and trustees
are particularly anxious that the men,
hers of the society, as we'll as those
who attend its concerts, should feel a
sense Of interest and, indeed, proprie-
torship in it. The society is purely CO.
lucrative, and philanthropic and edu-
cational in its purpose and activity.
No salaries or fees are paid to any
officer. director or trustee outside of
the active operating management and
players.
1t is impossible to conduct at a profit,
or even without a deficit, our series
of concerts at such prices as will bring
our music within the reach of all and
thus render the service for which our
society was founded. This experience
is not confined to ourselves, but is
shared by all large modern orchestras
whose mission is philanthropic and
educational.
The Pulitzer bequest, which the So
ciety was fortunate enough to receive
three years ago, lessened the amount
which has had to be raised in other
ways. but our deficit still continues
and ranges between $4,000 and $780,
900 per annum, according to our pat

ronage. This fund in the past has been
raised by personal solicitation on the
part of some Of our trustees from a
comparatively limited number of
friends of the society. 1t seems un-
wise, however, and unfair, that these
comparatively few generous givers
alone should be called upon each year
to supply this deficit; indeed, in the
present war conditions, it becomes diff
ticult for them to do so. 1t is undoubt-
edly true that there are many others
among our music-lovers who are able
and would be willing to do their share
if they were acquainted with the
necessities.
We recognize, as does everybody, the
urgency and directness Of the great
war claims upon us all in these times
However, we feel, as do evidently the
attendants upon the concerts, that the
orchestra Is performing a public SER
vice by giving its uplifting music reg
ularly, and should continue the con-
certs through the year. Of course, it
must be recognized that this cannot be
done unless our friends render it pos
sible by their contributions.
So far as we are informed, music is
kept up in England and in Germany
during the war with the consent and
approval of the authorities, on the
ground that in times of national dis
tress the nations spirit and also its
ideals should be maintained and up
lifted with beautiful music. We feel
that this is a point on which a great
deal of stress can very properly be
laid.
The entire organization, including
officers, directors and playing must
clans, is 100 per cent American, every
man being either an American citizen
or having taken out naturalization
papers.
