Of Welcomes" Mr.. Engles is quoted aa

effort will be made to insure success.
The French Minister. Of Fine Arts, M
Hcnnorat, arranged Tor the orchestra
to receive special facilities on the rail-
ways-for example, the artists tariff,
which had been suspended, is restored
for our benefit. The Minister Of Pub
lie Works is taking charge of the rail-
way side Of the tour.
"The leading French musicians are
giving US practical support. There is
an executive committee Of about
twenty conductors and composers,
among them being Saint-Saens,
Messenger, CheyIllard, Rhene-Baton,
and Roussel. The American colony in
Paris Is represented by a committee
Of patrons headed by Mr.. Hugh Wal
lace, our ambassador.
For our concert in Brussels the
Belgian Minister Of Fine Arts has
placed at the disposal of the New York

his course, regardless Of the National
Symphony.
S. E. Macmillen, manager of the
orchestra, after a careful survey of
the field, considers Newark large and
wealthy enough to support another
series of concerts, especially one in
which orchestral music would predomi-
nate, since Mr.. Fuerstman's programs
are given chiefly by soloists. He be-
lieves that Mr.. Fuerstman will find the
National Symphony, instead of being a
rival, cooperating with him, inasmuch
as Its presence will increase the num-
Der of concertgoers in Newark and
thus make a larger field from which
to draw his own audiences.
Edward Morris, young American
pianist, was taken to task by the same
critic for giving his first recital in
London, which took place on April 27,
IN building as large as Queens Hall.
-: on4y those comparatively few ar
public have taken warmly to their
hearts can ever hope to attract an
audience anything like numerous
enough to fill such ample spaces, and,
London concert-goers being notoriously
shy Of strangers, it would surely have
been kindness to warn Mr.. Morris
OF the probability-indeed, the certain
ty-that he would undergo the chilling
experience Of playing before the pro-
verbal beggerly array of empty
benches. The wonder really is that,
under such depressing conditions, the
newcomer was able to give so good
account of his powers as undoubtedly
he did. He appears to be q very young
hiC - ~
is of the kind that inspires confidence
without giving rise to suspicion in
the listeners mind that the player is
out to astonish.
Some of the things he did sounded
brilliant enough, it is true, and his
clear, vigorous and incisive reading
of the 'Appassionata' may have
seemed here and there to some ears
Just tride 'pianistic' But the SLOW
movement was beautifully phrased,
while certainly in Busoni's arrange
ment of the Bach Prelude and Fugue
In ID, which came earlier in group of
some more or less unfamiliar Beetho-
ven transcrlptions, the pianist made no
strength. Some Chopin pieces, PLAYED
with accomplished ease and often with
sensitive, delicately- balanced tone, pro-
vided further satisfying test of his
skill and musicianship. It was a pity,
though inevitable, that his audience
should have been so small, but they
gave him plenty of applause by way
of compensation"
On May Jascha Heifetz made his
first appearance in London. The music
critic Of "The Daily Telegraph" re-
corded his impressions as follows:

National Symphony
Announces Plans
For Next Season

SevsntY-f,ve concerts and q total Of
twenty-eight soloists already engaged
are included In the latest announce
ment just made by the National Sym
phony Orchestra relative TO its plans
for next season.
Ihe original arrangement Of con-
certs, two afternoon series and two
evening series Of fifteen concerts each,
still stands, but for the accommoda-
tion Of subscribers who preferred
shorter series and to meet the wishes
OF many new applicants these dates
have been arranged also in such q
manner as to constitute three evening
series OF ten concerts each and three
afternoon series Of an equal number,
one OF which is confined to Tuesdays,
running from October 10 to April IL.
This list OF sixty concerts in Carnegie
Hall remains constant. TO it, however.
have been added a series of ten SUNDAY
night concerts in the same auditorium
and short series Of five Sunday night
concerts in the Hippodrome, making
the total Of concerts for New York
City seventy-fve.
The Sunday evening concerts have
been arranged to meet the demand Of
thousands Of persons in New York,
both residents and visitors, for musi-
cal entertainment Of the highest class
on those nights.
The list Of soloists announced con-
sists Of Fritz Kreisler, Jan Kubelik,
Francis Macmillen, Albert Spalding.
Alexander Schmuller, Efrem Zfmbalist
and Arigo Serato, violinists; Pablo
Casals, 'ccllist; Louis Bailly, violinist;
Serge Rachmaninof7, Miss Guiomar
Novaes. Mime: Olga Samaroff, Benno
Moiseiwitsch, Heinrich Gebhard, Mischa
Levitski, John Powell, Leopold Co.
dowsky, Rudolf Ganz, Ignatz Friedman,
Ossip Gabrilowitsch, Arthur Rubin
stein, Nine. Yolando Nero, Leo Orn-
stein, Miss Matilda Locus, pianists;
Nine. Frances Aida, Mme. Julia Claus
sen and Joseph Rosenblatt, singers.
Three Of these soloists will be new
to New York. Alexander Schmuller is
q Russian violinist whom Willem Men
gelberg will introduce to American
audiences when he arrives to be guest
conductor Of the orchestra. Miss Locus
is an American born pianist, discov-
cred by Artur Bodanzky in his recent
competition for instrumental soloists
who never have played in public. Ap-
proximately half of the concerts will
be conducted by Mr.. Bodanzky and
half by Mr.. Mengelberg.
Old subscribers have until June 15
to signify their intention to retain
their membership, but they have been
asked to make their wishes known as
soon as possible to facilitate the work
Of placing new subscribers.

standard Of our symphony orchestras.
A Cult of Conductors
How long will the public Of New
York hear 200 professedly high-class
orchestral concerts each season? Pos
sibly as long as that number is Of
fered for its delectation. How long is
that likely to be the case? We think
that question can be answered-just
as long as rich people are found to
pay the orchestral musicians for their
services. The attendance of the public
has little to do with the matter, for
the patronage does not suffice to meet
the continually mounting cost of the
entertainments. The patronage Of the
rich and socially ambitious may seem
a stable prop at present, but it is not
certain to endure. The cult is not one
of artistic music, but one of conductors.
The supporters Of the Symphony So
ciety are patrons Of MIR. Damrosch;
those of the Philharmonic Society Of
Mr.. Stransky; those Of the New SYM
phony Orchestra Of Mr.. Bodanzky. The
taste and judgment of the public have
changed since the superior excellence
of the Boston Orchestra won Glen
tele composed of music lovers, who
placed music above the man who is
supposed to evoke it by mystic wav-
ings Of magic wand. Each organiza-
tion, or each conductor, has now his
faithful followers, to whom all that is
done by it or him is right. Such q
following is not firm foundation.
Perhaps new quantity will enter into
the equation with the coming Of Mr..
Mengelberg, to share the duties of
conducting the National Symphony
Orchestra next season. We do not
believe that anybody familiar with the
situation, even though he be directly
concerned in it, believes that New York
needs 200 symphonic concerts between
the middle Of November and the begin
ming Of May. When personal equations
are removed, considerations of art will
resume their sway. An earnest effort
was recently made to join the Philhar-
monic and National orchestras; it
failed, for reasons partly personal,
partly due to conditions growing
out of the constitution Of the older or
ganization. Perhaps the new status Of
the musicians, artistic and economic,
will clarity the situation and restore
normal and beneficial conditions.
