Assnnlntlen at the Bcllevnc- Stratford yesterday ofterneon before cne of the largest audiences that have J ittended uny of this bcosen's concerts, i The personnel of the organization has j changed lnce lia last appearance in this city, Udwin Bachmann, ns second Tielln, nnd Herace Brltt, as cellist, hlnr the new members. Their advent " . has undeniably strengthened the qunr-1 ter, cspccinuy mm ui .-. mm. who, in the slew movement of the Brahms quartet and in the trio of the Khero of the llavcl composition, showed himself te be net only n fine cellist, but a cliambcr-musie nrtlst of the first rank ns well; the two things re by no means synonymous. Mr. Letz's programs lire always ex cellent, for the rensen that lie docsNie eiperimenting in strange compositions tt the expense of the audience, and when he puts n composition en the nrerram. the llbtcner may feel assured . , that it h well worth hearing. He be- ' fin with the B flat quartet of Brahms. K. M7, one of the most difficult . ' el the master's works. The per- forraauce was mere than excellent, ud, despite the- difficulty of the composition, well-nigh nppreached perfection, the clnborate viola part, notably in the third movement, being uperbly played by Mr. Krelncr, with beautiful tene nnd great musicianship. ' The second number consisted of two movements from Haydn's I major quartet, Oq. 70, Ne. 0, the well-known large In V sharp major, followed bj the rippling presto. Beth movements were beautifully played, and formed an excellent centrnst between the intro spection of Brahms and the modernism el Ravel, which followed. The nttcr quartet ! modern French in thought, hut fellows the accepted lines of the strint; quartet sufficiently close In construction te be perfectly intel ligible en u first hearing, nnd, while the harmonization Is modern, it is nut tggrcsshc or. disagreeably ' The work makes many demands upon ihe plnjenj. especially in the preduc- ! tlen of unusual tonal effects, broken ' chords in umisuul intervals and similar , devices of the modern composer. All these effects were.flncly performed, and i the reading by Mr. Lctz nnd his asse- ' elates was the best that has been given I In Philadelphia, for the reason that It was exactly in tliJ nppnrent intent of the composer. The ensemble of the quartet li meet xccl!ent, and the tenul quality ami balance leaves little te be desired. A Short Visit With a Lasting Memery "I never knew whnt te mnke for desert when the maid's nwny." said Min, Martin ns she glanced at the clock nnd put n-siile her sewlns.
