With the engaging of the Academy for the concerts of the present season . of Ui0 Dppertlllllty should 00111 nnd the appearance of professional j niiinlcntc with Dr. Charles S. Itlrsch, soloists of the rank et I.ee Ornsteln, 000 Pine ttrect. there has been mere or less of a feeling ' ; . that- the Philharmonic Hecl-ty wds'T'J K recent death et Cnn.ille Saint- ... , . ... , ,, , i -- Saens removes from the sphere of getting away from the Ideals of J" I cnrtll)y cuJcuvtn. en0 of thp Rrent figures tncring riuinucipiiiR iiiuHicinnnuip mu in performance nnd composition, which were the avowed original purescs of the organization. This, however, the writer 4s assured by Or. Charles S. Illrsrli. the treasurer and inuiiiigcr, is by no means the case. The, membership for the current sea son showed n grnllfjlng Increase ever thut of Inst bcaseu se much se that it was decided by the directors te tuke the Academy net only for the pur'ixjsc of iiccommeduting the added members, but also of giving the members of the erclicstnijfhicji Is made up alme-t cx cluslvclef the players of the Phila delphia Orchestra, the auditorium in which they nrc accustomed te play and with the acoustics of which they arc thorough! familiar. The gain of this tlioreuglil nimi inr. liiegninet tnis i move from an 'urtlBtk- staiMlpeint is iindciilnbly greut. j LFO OKNSTFilN, who was soloist at the first concert, und Michel Pciihu, j who will appear at the next one, repn sent Hip highest esslbp type of soloist. The.v wcrp engaged bccuiise tlie directors of tlu Philharmonic Society desired te give the members of the organization the best possible soloists which could be obtained. Notwithstanding tills, t lie original purposes et the society will be rigidly adhered le. At (he coming concerts the winners of the Philharmonic medals of last season mid some of these who received high mention will be given the oppert unity of performing with the erclipstrn. Among these are Marcus lSllt.-tcln. pianist; Mix Sccnefsky, vielinist: Clar ence Fuhrinnii. pinuist, und Itebn Hrtrn sleln. soprano. Medals for the best qunlillcd young Philadelphia executants will be awarded ngalu tii-. jenr. The change in Hip original program of the organisatien has been made with the idea of presenting te the members net only the best Philadelphia talent, but aNe the best thut is new appearing en the concert singe, thus giving the society a wider artistic scope nnd prc sputlng te (he members n broader view of Ihi- gpiieiiil musical field. TIIK object of the Philharmonic So Se clot is te furnish the best misic te the grpntcst possible number of per sons at the lowejt possible ceM. The receipts, even if evrry nipinbprshlp wpre taken, would hardly pquul tin cost of concerts of this class, for at the present dues the concerts are given nt a cost te t he members of ?1 per concert. A small group of gcnoteuslj minded guar antors makes it possible for the organi zation loge nhend with its present com prehensive plans. The response this season te the brend-gnuge pluns of the seeipty hn3 been gratifying and the Academy was filled te the doers at the first concert, with the prospect that the ne.t one will be even mere Inrgply attended. The double project of the Philharmonic Society deserves the support of the Philadelphia music-loving public. It proposes te give the bp.st orchestral music with the most competent players that the country furnishes; te clve some rilOTOPIVYH Weekly Photoplay Guide Week of Jan. 2 te Jan. 7.
