.OMOItROW nlghtl Just
one
day more nnd the curious
stranger who hnppens In the
and Howard streets after his
evening meal will sea bright
light smiling from every window of our
lilg Auditorium, answered here a,nd there
liy gleaming flashes from the headlights
of many taxlcabs and automobiles as
they turn tho corner and slow down In
front of the door. Even the passing cars
will stop to look at the brightness and
the crowd of machines and from, their
doors will bo seen to emerge many a
happy passenger dressed In gala attire
and each of whom Invariably turns his
footsteps toward the building. And the
people! He will see peoplo coming from
nil directions nnd swarming up to the
entrance, for all the world like a great
swarm of bees to a mammoth hive. It
Is a hlvo too, only In this case Its con
tents are not sweet honey, but sweet
music, for It will not take htm long to
find out that this Is tho opening night
of the series of concerts by the Omaha
Mendelssohn choir and the Theodore
Thomas' Chicago Symphony orchestra."
The reason ho will see such a vast crowd
of peoplo Is because everybody that Is
nnybody In Omaha will always be found
nt these concerts and because many
music lovers from nearby cities and sur
rounding towns consider this an event of
sufficient Importance to be worth taking
tho trip to hear.
The symphony "Patiiotlque," by Tschat
kowskl, played by the orchestra on Mon-

performed for the first time at St
Petersburg, October 16, 1893, Just three
weeks before the composer's death.
Some think "that a presentiment of his
approaching death may have Influenced
this work, but It Is maintained by close
friends that the third movement and the
deep sorrow of the finale should be In
terpreted In the broader light of a na
tional or historical significance. The fact
remains In either case that this sym
phony Is the most human and most pro
foundly stirring of all his works. The
same general rules make a symphony
for the orchestra, a sonata for the
piano or piano and violin, and a con
certo for solo Instrument and orchestra,
all members of the same musical family.
There are four movements In this sym
phony, and the last Is considered as espe
cially Impressive. Tschalkowskl regarded
this symphony as the best of his works
i and wrote of It with the ardor of affeo
tlon. In a letter to his brother, Anatot
. (February 10, 1893), he writes, "Completely
absorbed In the new project. This time
with a program, but a program of a kind
that Is an enigma to all, let them guess
It who can. There will be much that Is
novel as regards form." His brother sug
gested the title.
In regard to Macbowell's "Woodland
Kulte,1' played Tuesday afternoon, Mrs.
MacDbwcll wrote as follows: "The suite
was begun In Wiesbaden the year wo re
turned ,tp America, though It was hardly
more than sketched Edward hod
no mbre program trr mind than the words
lmplyi but ho was undoubtedly led to
ward the subject by the clobe proximity In
which ho'l HveS to the big Wiesbaden
forest. Wo. had a tiny cottage there, Just
on the edge of the woods; and he spent
hours wandering in them. HIb Scotch
blood had filled his mind with mysticism.
Deep In his heart he half believed the old
tales of spirits nnd fairies not, of course.
In his ordinary moods, but his imagina
tion carried him very far, even though
he might laugh at himself. He hated cut-
ting down a big tree; it seomed possible
I that something more than tlw tree suf
fered. Strange as all this was In Ger
many, it wes much, stranger In America.
It was extraordinary tho Joy he took that
first summer In Feterboro, N, H., In the
woods, In the strenms, in the sky, and the
fact that It was all so new gave it a
singular charm, which the American more
often finds in Europe."
In the evening tho 'Waldweben," forest
whisperings, or murmuring of the winds
In the forest, will give us a chanco to
hear the great German composer Interpret
something of the same Idea Into muslo.

Miss Florence lllnkle Is perhaps the
most popular soprano upon the oratorio
stage of today, and Is without doubt one
of the finest woman singers that America
has ever produced. Thi3 year she lias
engagements with tho New York Sym
phony orchestra, the New York Oratorio
society, tho Theodoro Thomas orchestra,
the Chicago Apollo club, the Handel and
Haydn society of Boston, with all of
which she has been re-engaged. She was
the Boloifc at the Toronto festival last
fall, she has engagements for seven ap
pearances with the Philadelphia Sym
- phony orchestra, is one of the principal

Last week );e ClUcago Inter-Ocean
had a most entertaining story of the
"Old. Guard" o, the Thomas orchestra.
There are flvo ibat played with Thomas
before the formation of the Chicago
orchestra, and nine that have played In
the orchestra since Its beginning In tho
early '80s. Brum Stelndel Is one of thosa
that have been with them since this time.
Many Interesting anecdotes are told of

Tho agitation which provails just now
in regard to tho fortnno and welfaro of tho
homeless girl is of inueli greater import
ance to tho average family than perhaps is
gonerally roalized. Tho fact is, that no
, parental couplo can tako such precautious
that their daughters or sons, too, for that
matter may not at some futuro timo bo iu
the ranks of tho big mass of wago earners struggling with
tho most elementary problems of life. There is no dis
grace in this, but tho all important question is: are tho
young shoots from tho family tree equipped in a manner
to bravo tho storms of later life?
The borne is where tho molding process is performed,
that will assert itself for good or bad. The things then,
that surround and interest children while they are grow
ing up, are tho things that will shapo their souls and
the morals of the coming men and women in this country.
It is no idle assertion to Blato that music is chief among
tho earlier influences for good in frail humanity. Tho
sweetness of childhood memories has ever centered
around somo endearing and unforgotable melody, soma
fanciful strain. Happy iudecd is tho homo whore tho
taste for music, latent in every being, has boon nursed
along and dovoloped to a true understanding of real son
timental values iu a hard world, seemingly devoid of
feeling.
Industrial ovolution has made it possible to place
tho most brilliant musical, gems in any and every homo.
It is well enough to educate tho children in technical exe
cution, whenever talent is evident. Hut the other chil
dren, who have the music in t heir hearts without tho
desire for learning the tocniqiio, should not be forgotten.
They ought to have a chance to profit by the olovat'mg and
educating influence that eminatos from every homo,
where a Player Piano or a Victrola is found.
These' different instruments are now far past the
experimental stage, and tho expense connected with their
acquisition has been brought down to a minimum, espec

cluded Omaha's neune on the list of
cities In which they played.
Supelntendent Graff, In conjunction
with nsBlstant Superintendent Ryan and
Miss McHugh, principle of tho high
school, consider the educational value of
the visit of the orchestra of such worth
that they have made arrangements with
the management whereby high school
students may gain admittance to the
afternoon concert at a special reduced
rate, provided that they get their tickets
through the high school.
John Philip Sousa some time ago, In
"Norhward-Ho," wrote an article entitled,
"When a Man's Out of Tune." Some of
this gives such a clear Idea of the use
and peculiarities of orchestral Instru
ments that a few clippings from It will
not be lnapropos, in view of the ap
proaching visit of the Theodore Thomas
orchestra:
The peculiarities of Instruments are
duplicated by the characteristics of hu
man kind, the wide range affording In
teresting study. The queen of the musical
family Is the violin, sensitive under all
conditions, capable of the most minute
graduations of sound and pitch now sen
timental, now brilliant, now coquettish,
now breaking notes of passionate love.
Look about you and you will find the
violin's double among some you know;
high Bturng, diffident, capable of all the
emotions, beautiful In the crystallzed
harmonies of affection and sympathy.
Another affinity is the heavy going,
stolid, slow thinking, one idea man whose
llfo is taken up with punctuating time
with breakfast, luncheon, dinner, sleep,
ad flnltum He may be likened to the bass
drum with Its "thump, thump, thump,
and ogaln 'thump, thuhp, thump, thump,
thump;" the thump like tho meals and
sleep of the man may be great or small,
but it la always "thump, thump, thump,
thThen again we have the man in life like
the instrument In the orchestra, destined
never to rise above second position. A
third alto horn man may envy a solo alto
man. but he remains a third alto man
forever. A second trombone may cast
Jealous eyes at hlB brother In the first
chair, but it availeth him not. Fourth
cornets and second fiddles, eighth clar
inets and sixth trumpets may deride the
captains of industry of the instru

obscurity. If instruments were born equal

terlcal woman are twins and both can be
come nuisances; the golden thread of the
obeo's tone and the beautiful voice of shy
10 walk arm In arm. The pomp and cir
cumstance of the emperor are exempli
fied in the nobleness of the trombone; the
languorous lisp of the summer girl Is
echoed in the rhythm of Andaluslan
guitar. The love proposal Is pictured In
tho Impassioned melodv enunciated In the
tenor clef of cello, while the flirty gig
gling of the shallow coquette finds Its
mate in the fickle flights of piccolo. The
man who never deviates, a sort of ani
mated law of the Medes and Persians,
meets his rival In the positive "umph"
of bass horn, while the undecided never-can-make-up-hls-mlnd
individual Is pic
tured by the hesitating "pah" of the
second alto.
The last tew rehearsals of the Mendels
sohn choir took place behind closed doors,
even the occasional enthusiastic visitor
being shut out. It must have been en
couraging to the management and espe
cially so to Mr. Kelly, the conductor, that
in Bplte of much rain and Inclement
weather, out of the 190 voices the ab
sentees rould be counted upon the fingers
of one hand at these rehearsals, although
maiiy members come from South Omaha,
Council Bluffs and Florence, This is one

reason why our Omaha choir has such a
high standing among the choral organiza
tions of the country. Another reason is
that Mr. Kelly knows several things about
the gentle art of singing, and he is not
afraid that he will bo giving away some
secret of the profession, something that
he saves for his pupils only, if he tells
the choir how to take certain tones easily,
and to get the desired effect. It is per
haps the fact that the members feel that
they learn something more thun tho mere
notes that they sing that keeps them en
thusiastic. Thoy have not been rehears

than the poor has, for deep
down In almost everyone's
innermost recesses of sold
there Is always the longing
.to do good and to be good,
and tho music that can
strike this responsive chord
makes a much deeper
than any other. You who attend
tho concerts cannot help but be
uplifted by what you will hear,
but those that have gained the most
from them are those that have lived
with these works all these months, and
can appreciate their good qualities the
not the fineness of some of the voices,
but the solo ability of each one singing to
be able to so stay with the beat of the
conductor's baton, that from the many
soloists emerges the one beautiful Instru
ment of music played upon by the con
ductor the choir. The aame is true of a
good orchestra. Each must be an able
enough performer to permit the leader to
bring out the desired effect.
