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.

Mr J, H. Simms is a conductor of
judgment and authority. 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-

. 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.
