IN PEAEE FESTIVAL
Large

Better Trained Than Ever,
Feature of Event
SUNG IN RELIGIOUS SPIRIT
j. Bu a Staff Correspondent
Rctlllehcm. Pa.. June 7. Thn Rnoh
, .choir of Jictlilclicm, probably the finest
cnoir In the United Htates and ccr
V talnly the best trained, paid nnother
tribute to the mighty genius from whom
' it took its name in the fourteenth Bach
festival which opened in Packer Chapel
yesterday. Tho attendance surpassed
, all records, while for the II minor mass
there is not a scat to be obtained at
any price.
Testcrday's program was divided into
r--,-two, parts and consistcdly entirely of
cantatas of the great master. The first
was "The Lord Is My Shcnhcrd." a
work new to the choir and probably
given in its entirety for the first time
In the United States. The cantatn is
exceedingly difficult, but wns sung with
the precision and nccuracy that char
acterizes all the work of the Bach choir.
,' This was followed by tho solo cantata.
'"I, With My Cross Staff, Gladly Wan-
4dor, for baritone voice and orchestra.
Then came two strong contrasts, the
solemn "Teach Me, Lord, My Days to
Number" and the jubilant "The Lord
Is a Sun and a Shield," which closed
lae afternoon performances.
Choir Better Than Ever
it is not necessary to go Into the
details of the composition of these can
tatas. They arc nil the Bach of the
Lcipsln period, which means that they
.ore all polyphonic to a degree techni
cally, but this polyphony is never in
tensive and they arc full of the most
intense religious feeling. That they
were beautifully sung goes without
. saying. The choir has a larger mun-
ber of fine voices this year than over De-
'forc and it has been trained to a higher
ddgrcc of perfection. Their crescendoes
i and diralnuendocs, two of the hardest
musical effects to attain, were beautiful
and more than all else the members en
tered into the religious feeling of the
-orks and gave them with a sincerity
and'a conviction that was only matched
by that of the man who has made all
this possible, Doctor Wolle.
Of the leader of the choir nothing
need be said. He has long since placed
himself in a position of being the lead
ing Bach expert of this country, if not
of the world, nud, In Bach's music,
what he decrees is nuthentic, and just
ly so, because he obtains effects from
tlirso wonderful scores that no one else
pbtnins.
The soloists were Mildred Faas, so
prano ; Emma ItobcrtB, nlto : Nicholas
Douty, tenor, and Captain Charles T.
Tlttmnn, bass. Miss Faas showed n
fine voice and good technique, nlthough
her style might hnve been n little
broader. However, no vocalist or in
strumentalist who ever lived has too
much breadth for Bach. The same
might also be said of Miss Roberts, al
though Bach is always more lenient
with the' lower voiceboth male nnd fe
male, than with the higher ones. Mr.
t Tlttman was. at his best in tho second
II nUmOCr, O BU1U iniuniu lui uio rutii!
and disnlaved a voice resonnnt and
especially good in the upper register.

But of the soloists, It was Mr. Douty
who carried off the honors. Ha Is n
Bach expert and was In unusually fine
voice, and the combination, .with his
perfect enunciation' apd artistry of In
terpretation and delivery; mode a re
markably beautifat performance of some
hideously difficult tenor parts.
Four Cantatas In Evening
The evening concert, or it might
better be called service, consisted of
four more cantatas: The solemn and
exquisitely beautiful "Bide With Us,
for Eve Is Drawing Near"; the solo
cantatn. "Strike. Oh Strike! Long-
Looked-for Hour," for nlto voice;
"Thou Oulde of Israel." nnd conclud
ing, r"0, Light Everlasting." The
soloists of the evening were the same
as those of the afternoon, except that
there was no soprano part. Mr. Douty
finished n nerfect day by another
wonderful nerformancc. nnd amply vln
dlcated the assertion that he Is the
greatest tenor singer of sacred music
In the country. Miss Roberts was in
better voice than In the afternoon and
sang the solo cantata with excellent
effect.
The cantatas, as n whole, were of the
same general character na those of the
afternoon, except the solo work, which
showed n radical departure from the
usual Bach style. It Is purely melodic,
with nrromnnnlment In the strings and
sustnined tones In the reeds, and has
vlrtunllv no nolruhonic work. In the
first of them Bach showed that-the
nrni-tl-e of wrltlnc effective rests did
not orlzlnatc with Beethoven, for there
is n most wonderful effect in the can
tata. The orchestra was composed prin
cipally of members of the Philadelphia
Orchestra nnd thev nlayed ndmlrably.
At one nlace In the afternoon perform
ance It seemed as if the trumpets played
the parts on octave lower, Jtor the bril
liancy of effect was missing, aitnougn
it must be ndmltted tlmt the parts at
this piece arc terribly difficult, If not
almost unplayable. The work of the
orchestra, as a whole, was excellent, al
though nt times It was almost too strong
for the soloists, excepting Mr. Douty.
Doctor Wollc's plan at this Bach fes
tival was to present the double aspect
of n peace celebration nnd n memorial
for the American soldiers who gave up
tlicir lives in France. He selected the
cantata "Oh, Teach Mc, Lord, My Day's
to Number," while the peace theme
was represented in the opening can
tata, "The TiOtC Is My Shepherd," and
in various other cantatas which have
for their subjects peace nnd gratitude.
WEIRD MUSIC FOR GRIFFITH
Producer Has to Call Off Chinese
Program
After n performance of "Broken
Blossoms", at the Oarrick Theatre the
other night, D. AV. Griffith nsked if the
Chinese troupe would not "play some
thing." The men would be pleased
but the weird music that they offered
was a little too much. A little China
man with n white beard, who Is the
leader of the musicians, then volun
teered for the concert. He brought for
ward his stringed Instrument, which he
begnn to strum ns though he loved his
art. On and on he went.
"It is beautiful,," declared Griffith
with n smile, "but the only trouble
about the Chinese music is that It never
stops." And it might not have stopped
that ev.cning either had not the producer
of "B.rokcn Blossoms" finally declared
satisfaction. That old fellow was
grateful for the thnnks and that night
he was the happiest resident of China
town when he clambered to his room
over a chop suey shop.

THE CRITIC TALKS
TO MUSIC LOVERS
Weekly Comment on-Things
Musical in Discriminating
Philadelphia
THE highly creditable and interesting
concert given a week ago Sunday
evening by the Symphony Club ac the
Garrlek Theatre brings that unique or
ganization again to the attention of. the
musical public.
It has how been nbout eight years
since the Symphony Club was formed by
Edwin A. Fleishcr, who still continues
as its president and who, incidentally,
bears all the expenses of tho organiza
tion, which Is purely philanthropic. IU
object was then, as now, to give musi
cal instruction and practical experience
In the performance of music of various
kinds to those young peopje to whom
otherwise it would be an impossibility.
The early meetings of the' club were
held in one of the downtown school
houses, which was obtained for the pur
pose, but as soon as Mr. Fletsher be
came convinced that the idea would be
a success he built a home for the club
on Pine street, and in the fine building
which he put up all the meetings, re
hearsals and. smaller concerts of the
society have Blnce been held, except for
one or two concerts a year, which are
given In a larger auditorium and nr
open to such of the public as cares to
attend.
The club has grown to large pro
portions. Two orchestras are now
maintained, one n complete orchestra
and the other composed only of string
players. For them Mr. Flelsher has
purchnsed an excellent library and all
the other multitudinous paraphernalia
necessary for orchestras, and one who
has had any experience with these
bodies will know what an incredible
amount of It Is required.
"OUT the activities of the organization
-- are not confined to orchestral music.
Mr. Flelsher. himself an ardent lover
and excellent performer of chamber
music, has not neglected this Important
nnd little-understood branch of the art.
He has provided another excellent li
brary of chamber music, the use of
which, like the orchestral library, Is
free to members of the club, and the
result has been that those members who
take advantage of this opportunity are
rapidly acquiring a knowledge of and
a love for chamber music that will cer
tainly produce good results jn their more
mature Tears.
However, the main feature of the
club is the fact that the members arc
given the necessary Instruction by Mr.
William Happich. who conducts both
orchestras, nnd other luimoie learners,
not only in actual playing but in theory
ns well. One of the most remarkable
numbers of the last public concert was
a trroun of four highly interesting and
creditable piano compositions, played by
the young woman who composed them,
and who, as Mr. Fleishcr said in the
foreword of the program, wbb "a prod
uct of the Symphony Club."
There is much promising young
musical talent which has received Its
first guidance in this excellent or
ganization, and Mr. Flelsher may well
feel proud .of the work which he has
accomplished in eight years.
BUT, entirely outside of the practical
element in performance and even In
composition, the club has done an enor
mous service to music not only in Phila

delphia, where tho chief benefit is
reaped, but to the art as a whole. The
secret of the success of the club Is that
the educational work has been made
Intcty-sting. There are no conditions
of membership In so far as years", sex,
or even color, Is concerned. Any one
who has n fair degree of musical capa
bility Is eligible, if he or she manifests
sufficient interest to attend "rehearsals
with reasonable regularity.
The public concerts are not presented
as examples of musical perfection ; they
arc given to afford the members the
experience of public performances and
to show to tho public that the younger
players can, with proper instruction
and training, give meritorious concerts.
But in even more than all this, the
club Is doing a great work In the educa
tion of Its members to become lovers of
music of the best class. There Is noth
ing like practical experience to do this,
and this Is what they zet nt the
Symphony Club.
ITIHE Philadelphia churches have taken
J- much more interest in the music
which they provide In the last few years
than formerly, and with excellent re
sults all around. Music's first "offi
cial" function was In the church, and it
is due to a considerable extent to the
support and sanction which the church
gave to music in Its early days that the
art wrs enabled to make so much prog
ress. Now music has a chance to repay
the debt, 'and it is doing so with In
terest.
The struggle of music to rnake a
place for itself in the church In the co
loniat days of this country, especially
in New England, which favored section !
now considers Itself the home of music'
In the United States, is an Interesting
story. In those days the violin espe-1
dally was considered an Instrument of ;
the devil and especially encournged by !
that much-maligned personality not
that it really was, although it has been
known to sound that way nt times,
From that time on, however, music j
has taken a larger and ever-growing
place In tho religious service, until to- j
day it is an indispensable adjunct. The
churches have realized this, anu year
by year the music has been getting bet
ter and better.
The special music services such as
are conducted at St. Paul's Episcopal
Church, of Overbrook, or the Second
Presbyterian Church, in the city, have
an unquestioned religious as well bb
musical value. A well -selected musical
program of half au hour' prior to the
actual service certainly puts the church
goer in a more receptive mood for the
religious exercises and the Bermon to
follow.
AT
ST. PAUL'S, In addition to a
most excellent solo choir nnd organ
ist, the best musicians of the city hnve
taken part In the musical services, in
cluding a number of the lending mem
bers of the Philadelphia Orchestra and
others.
The numbers to be played nud sung
for the choir nlways participated
were carefully and skillfully chosen,
and the result amply vindicated the
judgment nnd repaid the hard work
of the music committee, for not only
was the attendance increased, but the
attention given the religious service was
greater and more devout. At the Sec
ond Presbyterian the same results were
achieved, although the larger part of
their programs were given by the choir
of the church, which has made n spe
cialty of a cappella singing. Thus is
music repaying her old-time debt to re
ligion. ,
