J ' OSEPH BONNET, the great French organ virtuoso, will be heard in Omaha next Sunday evening at St. Cecilia's cathedral, Fortieth and Burt streets, at 8:30 o'clock. This is great, good news to alt music lovers, and especially to lovers of organ music. The or gan is tne greatest ot an musical : instruments, especially the won derful modern organs that are built today. The combination of this great French master, and the beau i tiful Casavant organ which was the recent gift of Mr, Frank Burkley to the cathedral, will be an event. Jo seph Bonnet is one of the greatest -organists of the present day. His father, organist of the charming old chiirrli Fiilati onrl nil th mem bers of his family were artists and musicians. He began the study of the organ with his father. When . he was but 14 years old, he was ap- pointed organist in the church of St. Nicholas. Shortly after he came to Paris, and enjoyed, the tui s tion of Alexandre Guilmant at the Conservatoire Nationale de Musique, where he gained with the greatest , distinction a brilliant Premier Prix of organ and improvisation. The celebrated post of organist at the church of St. Eustache irt Paris was won by Bonne over innumer cb!e competitors with the unani mous vote of the jury. On the death of Guilmant, Bonnet was j -asked to be his successor for the coveted position as organist of the Societe des Concerts du Conserva- - toire. . Connet has a remarTcable and V unique memory, his repertoire com- "prising as it does the whole of organ literature from the early composers to Liszt, Cesar Franck and his con temporaries. He has given num berless recitals throughout France. tngiana. Belgium, jswuzenana, Austria-Hungary and Germany. He ' has written a large number of con- cert pieces: Poemes d'automne; three volumes of 12 original pieces each; historical organ recital series in five volumes, a monument of the highest importance in organ litera ture, and his famous Variations de f'nurprt whirr wa rbnspn 9c a t"st piece by the Royal College of 6r- L I?.! ft 17.1 We Charge No War Tax A at Sale of GUT GLASS.

His splen did choir at All Saints' churclris a fine evidence of his musicianship, and there are many "who remember the Omaha Musical Art society, which under his baton achieved a high fame in Omaha musical annals several years ago. - Mr. Henry G. Cox will present he Minneapolis Symphony orches tra at the Brandeis theater' on Fri day evening. May 23, at 8:15 o'clock. The fame of some musical organ izations rests upon the work accom plished by a specially gifted conduce tor; again the reputation cf some conductors rests upon the fame of the organization they had the good fortune to be called upon to conduct (as is the case of two weil-known eastern orchestras), and again there is the oase of a famous name de scending from a distinguished father to a son, but only in one case, in this country, has the fame of the conductor and the orchestra grown jto its present status along such ab solutely parallel lines as is the case with Emil Oberhoffer and the Min neapolis Symphony orchestra. Seventeen .years ago Emil Ober hoffer was not generally known out side of the confines of Minneapolis and St. Paul, though in both cities his ability as a conductor was well recognized. Sixteen years ago, through Mr. Oberhoffer's energy and enthusiasm, the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra was otganized, and. through his consistent and ca pable directorship the organization has developed to one of the greatest in the country, while Mr. Oberhoffer has become an international figure. The press from coast to coast has done full justice to both the man and the orchestra. The Minneapolis orchestra is well knqwn in Omaha, for it has often presented excellent programs in this, city. It is a cause of great gratification to the management that the school children and their parents are responding so generous ly to the popular educational con cert which will be given Friday af ternoon at the Municipal Auditori um. At all indications, the Audi torium will be packed. The even ing concert, at the Brandeis thea ter, will be just as enjoyable from a different' point of view. Mr. Ober hoffer will not only present a most interesting program, but what he presents will be done in a most in- a essay mes -ri rif in taia.: ill m jffl . Music for the Children Not so many years ago in Chi cago, Theodore Thomas, the be loved, began giving afternoon orchestral concerts for children, choosing simple but beautiful works of the masters with the idea of developing in the young a taste for the best music. His idea has spread about the coun try and among the conductors who have been most successful in carrying out the plan is Emil Oberhoffer. the leader of the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra. In Omaha we have a very pro gressive musician in the person of Henry Cox, who works con sistently for the good of the community. He is bringing the Minneapolis orchestra to Omaha with the idea of ail afternoon pro gram exclusively for children, and an evening one for grown ups. With the co-operation of the public schools this plan might grow to almost any proportion. If it is taken up with enthusiasm it might lead to regular orchestral concerts for Omaha, many years before we are able to support an orchestra of our -own. It is recorded in musical history that nearly all large cities have,, be gun with a visiting orchestra, and gradually develsped toward their own. ' . - It is a noticeable fact that wherever orchestral music has obtained a hold, the standard of all other branches . of art has been greatly raised. If through the children we could arrange to have the Auditorium packed, for .say six orchestral concerts a winter, it would "be the finest thing from an educational point of view that has ever happened in Omaha. In New York, the city is giving free orchestral concerts in the municipal art galleries and the audiences are amazing. If there are not seats enough they sit on the floor. People do honestly like good music. The men, wo men and children of Omaha like it just as well as anybody. Back of the actual music must be a popular and cheap plan of pre sentation, and it, seems as if Mr. Cox has found it. His is a civic plan and where there are hun dreds of folk interested things generally work out. MARY LEARNED. teresting way. These are reasons for a great amount of his fame. The department of community singing of the War Camp Commun ity service will open its second song leaders' school, Wednesday evening, May 14, at the Girls' Community house, 1716 Dodge street, under the direction of Mr. Harry Murrison.
