 The programme of works familiar to Londoners was direct challenge for comparison with English and European orchestras which have made the Queen's Hall concerts famous for generations. Wagner. Beethoven. Saint-Saens and Ravel were the composers selected. The only regret was that the programme contained none of the great American works which are only beginning to get known here. On all sides one heard praise of the fine tone of the orchestra, of the precision and efficiency of its individual parts, and of the well-drilled coherence of the whole It compares fa- vorabiy in these respects with any of the English or continental orchestras heard here.
 The chief point of difference noted was that while the preparation of European orchestras usually leaves something to the inspiration of the moment and the actual control of the conductor in the
