Itlcbnrd Strauss appeared as guest conductor nt the regular concert of the Philadelphia Orchestra at the Acadcuiy of Music jesterday afternoon lu a pro gram consisting of two of his own com positions for orchestra and tlie A miner concerto for violin and orchestra of Vivaldi, the latter placd by Paul Keehanskl. The llrst of the two Strauss works was especially interesting, as it is the one dedicated te Wlllem Mengclberg and conducted by him here last season. We have, therefore, heard within the space of less than n car the two most authoritative readings possible te ob tain. These readings were as different ns can be imagined. Mcngelberg's was brilliant te a degree, the interpretation of a conductor, while Strauss repeated the llrst Impression he made with the orchestra at the special cencer gave the reading et n composer. Strauss' reading vvns mere compre hensive than that of Meugelberg In that It had considerably mere unity in in terpretatlnn and made the "joining" periods between the six parts clearer te I the hearer. Ills tempi were inaikcdlv, slower than these of the great Dutch leader and he did net pay se much attention te the orchestral detail. Qn the ether hand, the performance lest in brilliancy when compared with that of! Meugelberg. Strauss' interpretation i vvns along very bread lines and reminded one nf n great painting, while Mengel-' berg's was mere like an cMiulsltc en graving, where each thing Is depleted in the finest detail. Repented hearings de pet nlace "Lin lleldenleben" as among th very great-1 est of the Strauss tone poems. The hearer finds mere te admire in the wen-' derfiil mastery of the art of writing for the eiche&tra than tu thc actual Inspiration of tlie themes themselves, lovely as the third and seventh parts nre, and full of beauty as are innny of the ether places In the composition. The second Straus, number is written for n very small orchestra. Cewer than fmty pieces, including a piano, admir ably played by Clarence K, Haw den, being emplecd. The music as a whole. Is strikingly old fashioned, and It seems net ly have that striking originality, which Is, perhaps, the principal feature of thu best com positions of the master.

TIIK three weeks' season of the Han Carle Opera Company, which 1ms just dosed In Philadelphia, revealed h number of Interesting sidelight en the general operatic Munitien iicre, I'crhaps the first nnd most Important of these wiid the fact that the attend ance, especially in the closing days of the ei4'ugcmpiit, showed thnt there Is In Philadelphia n distinct field for opera at u moderate price, when given by a geed company,. The merit which the company possesses was clearly shown In n repertoire ranging from "Lucia" te "Othelle" nnd "Lohengrin." Any or ganization which can give such credit able performances of opera, embracing prnctlcally the whole repertoire, us did Mr. CSalle's company, and de it nt a easenable price, is well worthy of pub lic support. Dvcr since thc beginning of opera In this country it has been a diversion feri the rich. The "star ' system uimie u such, because the enormous fees paid te the stars innde it necessary te charge such prices as put opera beend the i each of the uvcragc purse. This sys tem Mr. (ialle bus ellmlnntcd, and jet Is nblc te give performances of the greatest excellence with very tine sing ers and actors, thus making up casts which realty gain in balance as well as spirit. TIID task of the San Carle Opera Company this jear was one of pecu liar difficulty, because It had te win the confidence of the Philadelphia opera -going public, which hnd been sadh uiuittnreil In some iinfertiintc experi ences in thc not-leng-gonc past. Seven Seven "cempnnics" had announced "seasons of opera, sold thikets and then ceased after a few performances; another dis missed its audience after the second act of "II Troaterc" because the singers bad net been paid, and they naturally refused te finish unless as sured of their money, which the man agement was apparently unable te guar antee; nne'Aer manager sold tickets for a series of jlfc concerts, of which net one was giict!; anil there wer;e ether like Incidents. These experiences mudc thc opera loving public wary and suspicious. Of course, these who knew tlie splendid record of the San Carle Cempniij nnd Mr. Gnlle, who is the only man in the country who has been able te gr-e high grade opera sueeesifil!ly at moderate prices, had no such doubts. Hut thc San Carle Cempanj hnd only given three performances in Philadelphia in the early part of the present jeur. and although the high respensibilitj of the committee headed bj Hiiiil P. Albrecht helped a let. the opera-going public "had te be shown." The three weeks which closed last Saturduj night, how ever, proved a complete answer te this nuest'en. which was, perhaps, the hard est one Mr. Gnlle had te answer. ANOTHKK interesting feature of tlie season was the number of Phila delphia singers who appeared at the performances. Uverj singer who ever warbled lias nt some time visions of the opera, and Mr. Gnlle gave several eiinir sinsers a rare nppertiinltj of appearing vvmi iiiermi?u y .'ip.-ricncm artists in a strong, well-balanced coin- pnnv. wltli a geed orchestra ami singe settings, thus giving them ever.v ud vantuge te show what thej could de.

Hut outside of these a number of operatic "debutantes from this e'ty nmde their appearances, nmeng them being Misses Hentrlcc Haten, Hilda lleltcr and Hentrice d'Allesandre. Miss Haten uppeni-ing in three leles. Hesldes these, 'alter j'feirfer conducted two performances of "Ciivallerla Kiistlcanu." All of them showed Hint the judgment of the Impre sario was geed in urrunglng for their appearances. The advantages, te the initiated, of a first appearance with n cempanj of ex perlcnii'd artists can scarcely be over stated. Invarlablj the beginner is nervous, te put It mildly, and te J-new thnt he or she is surrounded by u coin cein punv evcrj member of which is net Only willing, but nblc te eteml instant help If needed, nr'ds much te thnt con fidence which Is essential te u creditable debut. BUT, aside from the artistic success which Mr. Galle's eempnnv scored In its first extended stay in Philadel phia, the linnticinl returns were nil thnt could be expected from an Initiatory venture. It Is net likely that the com pany inadc much nienej from the three weeks winch it spent in i-iuiaicinmi. but the outlook for the future n sufficiently satisfactory for Mr. Gnlle te agree te return for another and perhaps longer season next jear Grand opera Is about thc most ex pensive of nil forms ( amusement. Hetli chorus und orchestra must be lilghlj trained musicians and ns such demand nnd receive geed salaries, lu addition te tills lire the snlnrles of the member" of the casts ii large sum. when the number und ubllitj of the urtistv who are regularl.v carried by the San Carle Ceiiipaiiy are considered the ballet, tin rental of the house eight times it week, depreciation and replacing of scenery and Costume, advertising nnd a thou sand and one ether expenses. Thc cost of n week of opera of thc kind which the San Carle Cnmpiuij gave us niununts te at least S'JO.OOO. This means Unit with eight operas each week there must be prett.v iiemlj .IJIMM) a performance tnken In te let the im presario break even und it takes a house nearly tilled te icpresent this much ash ut the prices which Mr. Galle charged. Se. it Is easy te see that the inaiiiigement of an operatic company is also taking long chnnce even en n short season, been use he has te enter Inte contracts for most f these ex pen es In udvum-e. I A vii-rill.I- (iitnri.uHtit- leiitnre nf the i A San Carle season was the fact that the audience illstlnctlv preferred the familiar ep-ras. Hj the nature of its kind of production, tlie cemn.inj can- net well give many novelties. nils being u proregutive of an p-uleyjed com cem panj plnlni: in its own thenuc. Hut. of tlie elder operas, 'lie most tuneful ones were thc ones which drew the lnrgest audiences. Mr. Gulln con sulted the preferences id his patrons as far us he was able te gauge them and presented the operas which thej indi cated that they wanted te hear. The SInincsp Twins of grand unern. "Cm ill -let la Kustieana" nnd "I Pngliiicl." proved te be the most popular, with "Faust" n close second, the crowds nt the three productions of thece eperns taxing the capacity of the house.
