Echoes of the Strains From Edonard Strauss' Orchestra. CAUSE OF THE DISAPPOIKT1IKKT. Concert of the Handel Musical Association at Carnegie Hall. .THE GOSSIP OF MUSICAL CIECLES Well, Edi Strauss bas come and gone, leaving in his wake a. deal of discussion pro and con. The fame or the great family name he worthily bears, aided by extraor dinary advertising the most effective part of which resulted from the injudicious pro tests against the lauding ot himsel! and his men drew an immense amount of pub lic attention to last week's three concerts in Mechanical Hall. It also drew soinethine like 510,000 or S12.000 into the box office. 2o wonder Edi is pleased with Pittsburg. If similar financial returu i being had throughout the tour, a part of the proceeds should be used to increase the number of strings in the orchestra. Nearly twice as many are needed to give the proper balance of tone. The occasional obstreperousness of the brasses, drums, etc, would thus be offset. In other respects little fault can be fonnd 'frith the makeup of the orchestra, consider ing the chief end of its existence. It is a fact that a number of the men were not the ones that nave so long been playing to gether in the Vienna Volksgarten. Air. Strauss himself frankly stated this fact in conversation with tbe writer on Tuesday afternoon. He declared, bowever, that the majority of the plaen did belouc to his own band in Vienna, and that all of them had been most inaustnously rehearsed by bim through the entire month "of April. There is no doubt that the players we beard bad all tbe skill requisite ana that tbny were thoroughly under tbe command 01 tbeir conductor. "Whence they came is ot no moment. Nearly all the selections outside the family field received a fauln interpretation, fur which the conduct r's readings and tho unbalanced orchestra must share the blame. There were not manysuch selections, honerer in the sec ond evening, none. The Strauss overtures were given with an effectiveness that could hardly have been improved, except by augmenting tbe orchestra. And the dance tunes that formed the vast bulk on tue programmes, tbese were played in an altogetherdelightful fashion, the orchestra being quite adequate for this pur pose and the conductor shomng at every point that be was there in bis own native element. In spite of tbe fact that tbe playing of tho vast bulk of the music was all that anyone bad any right or reasou to expect, a vast deal of disappointment has cropped out in the week's discussion. Why? One reason is that a goodly number of peo ple, misled by sweeping advance notices or by their own ignorance, habitually fail to mark tbe distinctions between different classes of art work and are wont to fancy that he who attains pre-eminence in one must needs be, at least, eminent in all. Such people, if they Knew as little of the drama, would go to bear Sen Thompson as Josh Whitcomb ana come away aggrieved at not seeing there the splendor they bad witnessed in Booth's Michelieu; they would blame Graj's Elegy for lacking tbe rol licking humor of "Tristaui bhaudj;" they would criticise a Kajon etching be cause it had not tbe opulent color of a canvas by ilakart. Why, such good lolk would go so far as to demean the Boston Sym phony Orchestra by thinking to compare it with the htraus Orchestra, and would do a yet greater injustice to the latter by blaming it for not equalling the former. SIosi peonle. howetor, went to tbe concerts last week for the express purpose ot hearing the Strauss dance music at us best. That is just what tbey did hear, and yet they were dis appointed. The fault here lay not with tbe oer- formers, not Kith tbe listeners, not with the music itself as written; but with the attempt to construct concert programmes almost altogeth er of compositions not designed tor that pur pose. Not designed for concert, because specifically demgned for and associated with something else. The majority of the thousands of listeners felt uneasy and unsatisfied as they sat still in their stiff, narrow seats. With that music one ought to be dancing, or at least watchiug the mazy whirl; one ought to be sitting comforta bly, cigar in mourn, mug in nana, cnu cbat on the lips then, luff delightful ly harmonious would the music sound. Music so thoroughly incidental in design and association cannot, without vio lence, be made to take tbe principal role. The cttectisas if one played an accompaniment without tbe solo. And down in his heart tbe thoughtful ob server felt that aside Ironi the design and the association the very essence ot the music lacked some element needful to satisfy the arti-tic appetite. Banco music bas its own legitimate place in the domain of art; so has that which we call "household art," which finds its application to wall papers, carpets and fur nishings. But neither can wholly satlsly the artistic craving. Rythm and mel ody, the salient elements in the waltz, are not all or music; they are not of themselves enough to make a single programme that will to its end satisty even a general audience Harmony must have its full share and the mote developed musical forms are needed in order to have an evening of satisfying music The public at large may not understand exactly the reasons ot their dissatisfaction Thty are fond of sweetmeats, they say; and being unsatihed after a feast of 'Wiener bonbons." they are naturally inclined to blame the confectioner. The fact remains that .1 ptogramme of Strauss dance-music, though played inimitably by Strauss himself, ctnnot by any possibility be truly satisfying to the average appetite for music an moro than a meal of candies, bowever fine, can satisfy the average appetite for food. so. For instance, Mr. Ethelbert Kevin, who has just come home from Boston on a visit, and who ought to know, declares Chad wick's quintet to be "the most superb since Schumann's; no description could do it jus tice," J , "Lovelv Rosabelle" was written for and is dedicated to tbe Boston Orchestral Club, bv whotechqrusand orchestra it was performed for the first time December 10.189. It was also performed at the bpnn-neld Festival last month. Mr. Cbadnick took the subject ol this late composition from Scott's "Lay of the Last Minstrel," where Harold. "bard of brave St. Clair," tells tbe tale of lovely Rosabelle, who tempted the angry frith "till the sea-caves rung and the wild waves snug." So says the Springfield Fes tival programme, which gives a complete analy sis of tbe work. From its description or Chad wick's orchestration, Itseeins tbemoreaDity that Tncsday evening's concert will be given without orchestra. But it will be pleasant to hear a 15-minute composition by G. W. Chad wick, even though the score has to be reduced to the organ. A month or so since the New York Eicnmg Sun printed the following, which comes In handy just here: A woman who knows tells the following story of the early life and struggles of Cletnence DeVere, the young woman who, during tbe past winter, has won a success as a concert singer in this city that usually comes with years alone, and who bas just been en gaged to sing in Dr. John R. Paxton's church at a salary of $1,000 a year, tbe largest salary ever paid a church singer in this country: Miss DeVeie is of French parentage, and until now has alw avs lived abroi d. Her father is a French Count and her mother was in early life a concert singer of brilliant reputation. While Cletnence DeVere was still a little child the father was stricken with blindne-s, and, as tbe estate was small, tho mother was again obliged to take up ber profession in order to keep the family together. As Clemence,whois the oldest child, grew older, she developed a voice that ber mother felt demanded every ad vantage of a thorough musical training. And so she worked harder than ever and sang at night and gave lessons during the day, until by and by she was able to send tho young girl to tbe best masters in France and Italy. When tbe training was over and ber daughter was declared to be secure of a bril liant future the tired mother gave the care of the family and the education of the younger children, of whom there are several, into the hands of ber daughter. And so Miss DeVere came to New York a year ago with the support of her blind father and tired-out mother and three or four brothers and sisters upon her shoulders. She bas been obliged to work bard and live carefully, even to deny herself tho comiorts or lire, and in tne muist ot ner suc cesses to evade social claims that might sub tract from tbe time and strength she must give to her work. It is always good to look upon success, and it is especially good to look upon so deserved and unselfish a success as this. v SHBBBHMSflRflRKSVaMaflBMBHHMRMaVSHBHIttEMRSBBBBfiVfiBHBHBlWsYBiViSfi BL ' " THE PITTSBURG .
