NO PROTEST AT CONCERT
THE INNOCENT BYSTANDER
ON SUNDAY'S CONCERT
ORCHESTRA
"I never enjoyed rt Sundny so
much in my life "
"I don't know how to pronounce
his name. I think It's Polish "
"What :s a Uruennhilde?"
"Did you notice how delicately
the sleep-motif was carried in the
strings?"
"He's doinir n. burlesque of 'Car
men' now."
"Isn't Wanner prand?"
"Thov snv the speculators got
stunr? awful."
Some seemed impressed by the
grandeur of the Metropolitan:
some didn't. There was noticeably
less tnlkinp between the two parts
of the concert than between any
two nets of any opern given at the
Metropolitan.
BALCONY AND GALLERY
"Of courc it's aesthetically
wrong to trivc Wagner without the
opera. The Muster himself ob
jected to it."
"'Vairner.' not 'Wagner.' This
Isn't the National League, you
know."
"It's a wonder they didn't have
them 10 years ago."
"Aren't the woodwinds lovelv?"
"Is that the oboe?" (An excited
whisper).
"What are thov playing now?
The Ride of the Valkyries'? Why.
I thought it was from the 'Birth of
a Nation.' "
Dresses were quite as charming
as those on the lower floor.
There were two "Franccsca da
Rimini" young men and no less
than four Pie-Raphaclito young
women.
Every seat was taken.
Without any iircllmln try fuss anil ap
narentlv without any official objection, the
Sundiv concerts of the Philadelphia Or
chestra ver- In mcjuratcd vesteidnv nft-r-rnoon
at the .Metropolitan Opera Houso.
More ill in -inOO persons hcaril the orches
tra, Icil hv Leopold htokovvskl, plav the
WnRnrr procram which was plnved In the I contrast
reKUlnr sides of concerts Home vieekH
am Tin- applause that snipped out at
the end of each number was universal,
and on sovr-rul occasions was prolonged
bevoml Midlnary limits At the end of the
first half the conductor raised his onliei
tra. the conventional acceptance of ap
plause for the whole orRnnirntlon
Police, olllcers were at tho doors of the
Metropolitan anil demanded that pitrons
show t 111 t tleketn before entcrlnK. a pre
caution nccessao on account of the crowd
which overran tin1 Inhb Tho concert
began promptly and before the llrt num
ber was completed the lobbv was full
again and thero was some surprise that
the doors wero not opened A protesting
Individual was cruhed by a woman I
standing near him, who remarked to her
companion, ''Oh, but they never open tho
doors at tho old Academy. When they
once- start" Late comers prolonged the
brief rests between numbers until the flrst
half of tho concert was oxer. At that
time the 100 standees were allowed to
take what seats they could And. Thero
here a number of vacancies downstairs,
the tickets being, apparently, held by
speculators.
Private detectives were strung about the
Metropolitan, and reported that specula
tors were seen, but that they had not
dared to offer tickets The management
of the Orchestra, which had taken all pos
sible steps against seat-selling, expressed
Itself ns being Intensely pleased It was
clear that the method of distribution had
been successful In placing tickets overj
wheie Men and wbmen and children
drove up In motorcars, taxlcabs, camo In
the street cars and. thanks to tho weather,
walked to the house So thorough anil
Impartial was the distribution that theie
could be no separation of Individuals InK
soeial classes bj their position In the au
ditorium. Tho orchestra was sealed precisely is
It customarily Is at the Academy, but In
stead of the neutral background It was
Klven n gorgeous and rather rococo set
from "Lucia dl Lammermoor," without
tormentors iihd with n false (piling This
1 set lim! been espccIalU cnnimaiideeied
from N'ew York, and a mistake In htp
mdit caused It to be delated, so It vvns
not until U o'clock Siturday nlqlit that
the stage was prepared, .no heraldic
blazonry of the background was not ex
actly In keeping with tho Nlbelungen
atmosphere, but It served. The main
thing, for everybody, was the music
Prom the first lalslng of Mr rftokonksl's
baton tho audience settled Itself Into In
tense q net. Occasional rlpplen of cough
ing disturbed various parts of the house,
but there was no whispering no rattling
of programs, nothing but nttnntlon Which
(nrcpa on adoration The orchestra and
Its (orimictor had a double Inspiration
I the new audience and the new circum
stances which thev desire to make per
manent They plnved perfectly, and the
Metropolitan, which has long stood as a
mausoleum to n urcut cnterprs(, jetiirned
us tho home of music It pioved an Ideal
place for the orchestra Inquiries made
of persons sitting In gallcn, under tb
boxes In all parts of the house, and In
vestigation by Interested Individuals, nil
pointed to the fcamo decision that ncoustl
callv the Metropolitan Is perfect. The
"Waldwrben " almost rvi rv note nf
which Is soft and low, was heard per
fectly In tho topmost seats Tho brass,
ilwns p.omlntnt In this pro-Tarn, hud "n
unusual shotgun cITei t at tlmei hut the
ensemble plavlng of the oiehestrn was not
at all nlfected bv the new conditions.
The audlente heard wlselv nnd well. Be
tween pirts a great deal of rending of
programs was done piobnbly accounting
for the stillness which pievnlled It
penned at flrat glance that to take music
which di minded a thnimigh knowledge of
the w hole ring for n first popular concert
wis tmvrisp Wagner proved, hovvivor,
that when properlj plned his appeal has
nothing to do with the storj he wu try
ing to tell
There were only two disappointments
In the whole afternoon First, those who
expected a comic-opera attempt to stop
Mr Stokowsk! In the midst of the "fu
neral March" had to be satisfied with the
music without drama. Second, there
were no professional "low -brows" and
no professional "high-brows" to glvo
to the occasion Doth classes

There Is espeelnl Interest In the pi-

from the requests for rcsirvntlons which

every Indication th-it there will be at
