Tho audience, while not large, was appreciative and con tained many of the most prominent Catholic residents of Philadelphia, In cluding Cardinal Dougherty. The program opened with a concert hy the ralwtrlna Choir, under In direction of Nicola A. Montanl. The choir presented a program ranging from cnmnonltloiis In the most severe poly phonic style as represented by Pales- , irinn. j.ne iiircc rviugs. ou " i.aunonian nauviiY rone, nun mc i . JLanguores," of Vlttorln, through the later Russian school of Tschalkowsky, Itubetz and Orctchaninoff, to an ex qulslto "Meditation," by Monslgmjr Onsimlrl.who, it will be remembered, led the St. John Laternn" Choir in Its visit to Phlladelphlc two years ago. Musically considered, the last as as fine a com position as appeared on tho program, with the possible exception of the Tschaikoway number. The concert closed with three Irish folk melodies, rather Indifferently arranged, It must be con fessed, by Christopher O'Hara, who, despite his undeniably Celtic name, did not altogether get the true idea of Irlh folk song, one of the most beautiful in the world, Into his arrangements. The choir sang cy well, Indeed, wpedally when the severely difficult polyphony of the more elaborate Church compositions Is considered, because there Is no greater test of the capabili ties of a choir than the old Catholic a capella music affords. The organi sation showed a high degree of training and an instant response to the indi cated wishes of the conductor, although It would be Interesting to know where Mr. Montanl got his precedent for the extreme sforzandl which was frequent ly used In the older compositions. The tonal quality of the choir was excellent, as were also the intonation and the dic tion, whether they sang in Latin. Ital ian or English. Like all conductors who have not the entire services of a raid choir, Mr. Montanl might Improve some of the voices, especially in view of the fact that the music which tho Palestrlna Choir essays is as difficult to Blng as any musio ever composed, but the work of the organliatlon is urprjslngly fine, and It is doing a work which is probably not nttempted by any other choir in the country. After the concert, there was a very entertaining dramatization of "Beauty and the Beast," which was well acted and finely staged, with beautiful scenic and lighting effects. This was fol lowed by an attractive May-Pole Dance given by about twenty girls. A re ception followed the close of the pro- France Honors Mrs. O'Shaughnessy New Torit. May 20.
