Solemn Mass by
Rossini Attracts
Ihrong to Concert
Metropolitan Filled at First
Presentation of Work That
Fails 10 Measure Up to
composers 'Stabat Mater
By II. E. krehbiel

y great crowd gathered in the Met
trcpolitan Opera House last night. at
trnctod ;hither by the announcement
thar Nossinl's Solemn Mass was to be
peNormed. The work never having
been heard at Sunday operate concerts.
Tor reasons which WI scarcely need
explanation to those who listened 20 il
last night, and being under n ban in
all churches disposed to obey the Fapai
mandates nromu. gated over and over
again at intervals as long as we can
remember, the curiosity Of music low
erS, especially OF the patrons of opera,
10 hear it was natural.
Many. no doubt. expected to hear
something akin in excellence TO the
"Stabat Mater If so, they were griev-
Gus y disappointed. 1t is much easier
TO rail against Rossini's setting of the
old hymn because Of its secular spirit
than to close ones ears to its musical
charm. 1t was composed long after
Rossini had entered on that lie of
luxurious ease and indoience which
grieved the admirers of his genius; but
its bountcous howaof melody suggests
the thought that whatever may have
