The Worcester Musical Festival.
The forty-fourth annual festival of the
Worcester County Musical association
was hstd in. Worcester, Mass., last week.
Year by year the Worcester music
festivals have advanced both in the
character of the works given and in the
etandard of excellence of performance,
until their influence baa become para
mount in the artistic life of the com.
munity, and is felt throughout the coun
try. While the local patronage this
year waa not equal to that of the past
few years, in real value to the art of
music this festival should be ranked as
the most notable thus far in the long
career of the association. Uniformly
excellent was the work of the soloists,
among whom wore MissSuzanne Adams,
Mrs. Shannah Gumming. Miss Gertrude
May Stein, Mrs. Clara Poole-King,
Messrs. Evan Williams, EIUbou Van
I loose, David Biepham and Carl DufTt,
vocalists, and Richard Burmeister, pian
ist. The orchestra, consisting of sixty
five men from the Boston Symphony
Orchestra, with Franz Kneisel as leader,
went through the arduous week's work
magnificently. The chorus of four hun
dred voices, the real foundation of such
an enterprise, was the best of recent
years. The principal choral works given
were Csuaar Fra nek's oratorio "The
Beatitudes," Verdi's Rquiem Mass.

The librettist, Mr. William C. Langdon,
seems to write with great fluency, but
'there is a lack of poetic feeling and of

gularly unfortunate in avoiding the
beauty of the original story and in em
phasizing its disagreeable features.
Metrically the work is highly satisfac
tory, however. The music through

form, this "lyric drama" is experimental,
combining certain characteristics of ora

to be highly successful when given in
concert form, while as an opera it is, of
