ICONCERT SEASON. HAS OPENING.
Civic Orchestra Gave
 Splendid Performance Last Night

The Clvlc Orchestra of Water bury opened the season last night at Buckingham hall with a aploHnb that has characterized the groups performances for many seasons, Each year the orchestra in its quail ity and musical perception grows in stature. The able conductor, Mario DiCecco seems to have arrived at happy understanding with his in- strumentalists and the results are wholly gratifying to the listening groups who feel that Waterbury has something In this splendid orches- tra.
 Last night the large event of the evening was Haydn's Symphony No, 90 in E Flat which was given a straightforward performance in the four movements that constitute 1t, Haydn, often called the father of the symphony and the string quar- tet, built his symphonies on the sorata form and established mus teal form which was exemplifled last night in his well known work which was skilfully translated by the orchestra. Musicianship and in- telllgence were apparent In the di- recting and in the reading of the instrumentalists. Adhering closely to the sonata form each movement progressed smoothly to the next, each one complete in itself, and though adhering strictly to Haydn's conception of the musical form there was evidence of the freedom of form" mentioned in the program notes.
 Contrasting to the Haydn piece was the opeEing Overture to "Wil- liam Tell" of Rossini's. The various instrumental choirs went through this number with Slfilcient aban- don and skill. Likewise they were keen and alive to the musical con- tent in the Caucasian Sketches of Ippolitow-Ywanow. These sketches abounded in color, the harmonaes were striking, and throughout the four parts a vivid picture was pre- sented, starting with In the Noun tains, followed by In the Village, Tn the Mosque, and Procession of the Sardar. The composer. who died in 1885, is important among the modern Russian composers and this contribution gave the first viola and other instruments an oppor- tunity to qualify as understanding artists.
 The remaining contribution by the orchestra which followed inter- mission was the pleasing Rosenkav- alier Values by Richard Strauss. Melodius and brilliant these we'll liked waltses were given a smooth performance.
