Concert of th Musical Association of Alle gheny This Week. KOTES ABOUT F1TT8BDEQ FtOrLE Amid the "crush of matter and the xrreck o! worlds" which, even in the best regulated newspaper office, is sometimes in cident to holding an early pace lor tardy copy, a portion of the review of Monday cvenin?' concert by the Mozart Club and the Boston Symphony Orchestra got lost and failed to apiear the next morning. Not otherwise could the writer have seemed to neglect the important share of our own Yalued chorus and solo singers in such a concert. It is not too late to say briefly that the chorus quite justified the strong declaration of Mr. Adamowski, oneot the solo violinists of the orchestra, to the effect that they al ways looked forward to these concerts with the" Mozart Club for the best choral singing thev iie-ird nywhere in the country, Boston not excepted. Tins uu not necessarily imply that the chorus was in its verr finest lettle on Mon day evemnc. The heavy, 'mnccy" atmosphere Tendeicd this Imoossible, muffliiiKtbe tone and making it a labor, instead of a pleasure, to sine at all. Allowing for this condition of thing', the chorus singers deserve high praise for the spirit and vigor of their work. Except in the notable Elijah" performance last May, and in very few other instances, they have never responded more heartily to the de mands of an important work like the "III mn of Praise." Amanir the solo narts in the cantata that of the tenor is much the most prominent. Barring an accidental slip in the lovely air. beginning "The sorrows of death" a slip that only one following the score would be likely to notice Mr. Brockett was exceedingly successful. The interpretation of tbee numbers. The rich voice, artistic phraing and expressive de livery merit hearty recognition. Mrs. Henk ler. in her brief solos and in the beautiful dnet with the tenor did excellent service, as also didMissAdaScandrettin her secondary part. . The circumstance that the associate members of the Mozart Club in return for their annual f 10 subscription not only get two scats for each of the five concerts, but also have the choice of seats before the plan is opened to the public live them an advantige the value of which nas clearly realized in these last crowded concerts. It will be the same way next year. The following circular is earn estly commended to all who maycaroat the same time to secure exceptional aavantages in the best concerts of the season, and to help along the work of this community's leading musical organization; To our A. relate Members ana Friends: "With these concerts of May 19 and 20, 1SD0, the twelfth season of the Mozart Club comes to a close. In this season the Hub has given to its associate members and the public a series of five concerts, of a very much higher average of excellency and artistic rendition than ever before, and for each of these concerts, includ ing the present two, each associate member has received two reserved seats. "That the club could afford to give so many lflph class concerts in a season is explained by the reason that the number of associate mem bers as materially increased this year. From the funds thus realized the club has been able to more than double its capacity for sound and thoroughly classical musical development, not only among the active members, the chorus, but among its hearers, the associate members. With increased funds to work on, the cor responding bentfits, not alone to onr audiences in eot.cTt, but as a musical factor of undeni able influence, the club bids fair to sustain and lurtber elevate the musical and artistic atmos phere of our community. "Your valued assistance and co-operation in this matter is desired and urged upon yon. We ask that vou sign the enclosed cardland return it to the Treasurer, W. H. Corle, 703 Smithfleld street, citv. at once, so that the man agement of the club can take immediate steps to give you. in return, concerts still better and more complete in every way in the next season's series. It is contemplated to give to the associate members next season, five con certs, three with our own local orchestra, and the remaining two with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, or some other band equally as ef fective, it possible. "Please make this a personal matter and re turn your subscription card at once. "The Mozaet Cum." The greatest popular interest has bean awakened to bear Eiiuard Strauss and bis "Viennese orchestra in the three concerts to be civen in the Exposition Mechanical Hall, Monday evening and Tuesday afternoon and evening of this week. The hall has been cspeciall) fitted up for the occasion. The three interesting pro grammes already printed in this paperpromise a generous feast of the Strauss dance music and other compositions of the lighter class just the kind of music which the people at large are most ready to enjoy and to which the connoisseurs too seldom accord its ngbtful place in the wide domain oi art. Of the first Strauss concert in Philadelphia, the North American, of that city, says this, among other things: "The special function of this orchestra is to play dance music in general and the unsurpassable waltzes of the Strauss family In particular, and this it does extremely well. Of course the waltzes and polkas are not given as they would be in a ballroom. Strauss make great use of the "tempo rubato," a mode of Interpretation to which the Strauss waltz, with its rhythmic ebb and flow and undnlating motion, is peculiarly well sotted, and through which a variety of striking and charm ing effects are producible. When dance mu sic is being performed he always directs violin in band, and from time to time will himself play the silent motive. He usually stands facing the audience, but whatever his attitude. Ins control over his men is complete, and they follow bis indications with an always ready and appreciative responsiveness. What makes the orchestra worth bearing is the fire and swing and spirit, the "entrain," to nse a French word for which there is no exact English equivalent, with which it plays waltzes aud polkas under its director's inspiring leadership." .. Quite enough in itself to furnish the chief feature of a musical week without counting the Strauss concerts is the concert announced for Tuesday evening at Carnegie Hall, to wind up the successful first season of the Allegheny Musical Associaticn. This programme also has been published already. ISesides an interesting miscellany, Dudley Buck's dramatic cantata, "Don Munio," will be presented the same which was given at one of the first Mav Festivals at Library Hall some years since. The Performing forne includes alonr with the chorus conducted by Mr. W. A- Lafferty and accompanied by Mr. John A. Bell on the big organ Mr. Slyron W. Whitncv. Mr. and Mrs. Theodore J. Toedt and Miss Gertrude Ed mands, a solo quartette of the highest quality. Crotchet nnd Qunvrrs. MRS. M. M. Ayees has recently become the organist at St, James P. E. Church, Penn ave nue. HUBEBT Leonakd, the celebrated Belgian "violinist, died at Paris a week ago last Tues day, after nine days' illness, in the T2d year of his age. Mb, ASD Mes. MOKOAX E. YEATMAsrcame Tip from their present home in Virginia last week to hear the concerts of their former as sociates in the Mozart Club. The Silver Cornet Band of Natrona, tilth its able assistants from Pittsburg, seems from all' accounts to have scored a decided success in its concert last Friday evening. Me. William Steinwat, who is not only a prominent piauo manufacturer but one of New York's leading citizens in all manner of public-spirited movements, will be in tie city for a few days this week as the guest of Mr. Henry Kleber. Mb. Eugene c. Hefflet spent the past week amid his old haunts in Cincinnati as an attendant upon the May Festival. His place at the organ of the Sbadyside Presbyterian Church will be occupied to-davbv Mr. Gilden li.Brcair.K" . Mr. I'wTtxnx Sternberg, the well known ni.iii ! ni composer, has just left At lanta, Ga . . laze of testimonial glory, aud will locate --manentlyin Philadelphia. Mr. Sternberg it welcome addition to the musical ranks of ihe KejMone State, Mr. Arthur Kikisch, whose truly great conducting we have all admired during the past week, is to sail soon for Europe to bring his wife and children over in September. If this indicates bis intention of permanent resi deuce in America, it will be the taost notable accession to our musical ranks since Anton Ecidl cast bis lot with us. , Commenting upon a recent lecture, the -.Boston Trantcrtpt says with much point: "Mr. 5Krebbiel bad many Interesting things to say suvu.iin imcuiwn oi me piano. isqully in- leresuoc miznt oe some account nr th tm-...i- esrseri of the piano, drawn from the excerKJ euce of patrons of summer resorts and dwellers within earshot of a hive of music teachers." They say Gilbert ana Sullivan have quarreled finally this time and that henceforth Mr. Alfred Collier will set the Gilbertian libretto, while Mr. Sims will construct the book for the Sulli vanio muse. It seems like a misfortune for the most successful operatic collaborateurs ox tne day to separate, but uiavbe the w ne" will turn out a double quantity without lower ing the quality much, if any. Mr. and Mrs. Ethelbert Kevin and Master Paul Nevln arrived yesterday from their Boston homo for a lengthy stay beneath the rooftrecs of their respective ,P,are"' Edgeworth and Edgewater. Thoy will probably spend the greater part of the summer here. Mr. Nevln running off from timo to time to mi various professional engagements booked lor the dog days. Miss Rosa Jjnde (Mrs. Schaarschmldt) is expected soon to return from ber arduous studies in Paris. There is some prospect of her being engaged for the last important con cert or onr musical season-the one to be given in June by the only Uilmore and his famous band, with other eminent soloists- prospect that many admirers among Miss Llnde s lor-. nier townsfolk would be glad to see realized. The mammoth organ recently built for the Town Hall. Sydney, Mew South Wales, cost 60,000 exclusive of freight and carriage. The authorities at Sydney gave Messrs. Hill abso lute carte blanche as to size, planning, design, mechanism and cost, and the result is proba bly the finest organ in the world at tho present moment It contains 10.250 pipes, and weighs 100 tons. Three tons of sheet zinc were re- ?ulred to lino the cases is which it was packed. c is blown by a single gas engine. The concert at Gymnasium Hall, East End, last Tuesday evening, with which the Poco-a-Poco Orchestra wound np its present season, passed off quite successfully, though the orchestra was handicapped by the enforced absence of Mrs. Dr. J. & Walters, whose earnest leadership has been mainly instrumental (or should one say vocalT) in bringing this band of amateurs up to its present high fctanding. Mr. Walter Arboirast assumed the baton for all out one number, his own cornet solo, for which Mr. C. B. Stelzner conducted. It is not yet too late to give the correct ver. sion of the very neat tribute paid to D' Albert by Von Buelow during his late visit to Pitts burg. In an autograph album belonging to a member of Mr. Joseph H. Gittings' family, Buelow found a pace bearing the signature "Eugen D' Albert:' Underneath this he wrote: "Pianist of the present and of the future." and then inscribed his name, "Hans von Buelow, pianist of the past." Modest, wasn't it? Espe cially for the egotistical little Dr. Hans, who knows his own great powers iuu weiu A t the entertainment to be given in Old City Hall next Thursday evening, by tbeC. M. B. A., Miss Agnes Vogel will sing the aria from Goldmark's "Queen of Sheba," Miss Grace Miller will be heard in Knecken's song, "Heaven Hath Shed a Tear," with cello obligato by Mr. Charles F. Cooper, Miss Anna Leah Dickenson will whistle, Mr. Joseph A. Vogel and Mr. T. J, f itzpatrick will also sing, and the Gernert Orchestra will play the "Tell" overture, beside some other things. All this setting off the lecture bv Hon. J. J. Haynes, certainly ought to furnish the traditional "something for every shoe." Me. Sims Reeves, prince of English tenors, in a recent interview.severely scores the scanty preparation nowadays thought necessary for a singer's career, laments that the quality of the voice has detenorated.and points his remarks with these wordn.unfortunately too true: "What takes nowadays is the high note. Every singer aims at that- It pleases, and he gives it, irre spective of art. The mellow, moderate notes, which are the voice, after all, are to a great ex tent neglected. This accounts for the popu larity of the 'white tenor,' as we call the singer whose register is abnormally high." Mb. A M. Foerster's "Love Song," for soprano and orchestra the same heard here at the last May Festival is among the works programmed for the annual meeting of the Music Teachers' National Association, to be held tho first week of July in Detroit. Mr. Ed gar H. Sherwood gave a big concert in Roches ter, N. Y last Monday for the benefit of tho orchestral tend of the M.T.N. A Is it yet too late for Pittsburg to fall in line with the other cities that have thus helped along one of the most useful factors in our nation's musi cal progress! Messrs. Nusser and Loeblicit. who played bassoon and born in the orchestra of the Emma Juch Opera Company, have returned to their bomes in this city, tho troupe having closed its long and extraordinarily successful season last Saturday in Montreal. Among the principal artists added to the company since Its week in Pittsburg last December are Miss Gcorgino von Januschowsky and Chevalier Ed ward Scovel, both kindly remembered here from former appearances. Manager Locke states that for next season he will have, in ad dition, several European artists of interna tional reputation. The new Duquesne Opera House In this city is among the six to be in augurated by the Juch company next season, says Mr. Locke. Twenty-one symphonies, 20 overtures and 5 concertos were performed by Mr. Nlkisch during the recent season of the Boston Sym phony Orchestra. Altogether 10S woikswere given. C5 by German and 41 by non-German composers. Beethoven led with 11 compositions, followed by Brahms and Schumann, 7 each; Wagner, Weber, Dvorak, 5 each, eta The .following soloists were heard: Miss Gertrude Edmands, Mr. Emil Fischer, Miss Gertrude Franklin, Mrs. Steinbach-Jahns, Mr. William J. Winch and Mrs. Walter C.Wj man, singers; Miss Adele aus der Ohe, Mr. Carl Baermann, Mrs. Fanny Bloomfleld-Zeisler, Mr. Carl Faelten, Mr. Raphael Joseffy and Mrs. Anna Steiniger-Clark, pianists; Mr. Timotbce Ada mowski, Mr. Frank Kneisel, Mr. E. M. Loeffler, Mr. Otto Rotb, violinists: Mr. Anton Hekking and Mr. Leo Scbnlz, 'cellists. The Art Society closed its season with the reception of last Thursday night at the Pitts burg Club Theater. An enjoyable musical programme was presented by Mrs. Mary K. Scott, Miss S. Glasser, Mr. Frederick J. Buss man and Mr. William B. Edwards. In the annual business meeting which followed, the President's address, outlining tho enlarged policies being considered for the society's future somewhat upon the lines indicated in this column last Sunday seemed to meet with the heartiest approba tion on the part of the members at large. There is now every indication that this old and respected organization will hence forth become a potent and public-spirited factor in the artistic development of the com munity. With the exception of Secretary H. S. Stevenson, who decliued renomination, tho former officers were all elected for another term this being the list: President, Mr. George A.
