PORTLAND SYMPHONY
Five Concerts to Be Given Under Conductor
Coursen & &
Present Indications point to a successful j
season for the Portland Symphony Or
chcfltra. now that its business affairs are
under the direction of the Music Club,
and with all members of the orchestra
working toward the high Ideal that has
been set before them by the music-loving
public of the Pacific Coast. Edgar E.
Coursen, the conductor, has returned to
this city from his vacation looking as
brown as a berry, and has just begun to
plan ahead for his season's work.
Orchestra rehearsals will commence
earlier this year than last, although a
definite date has not yet been arranged.
Last year tho rehearsals began in Novem
ber, and this was too late in the season,
as Mr. Coursen was latterly forced to
hurry his closing concerts to insure that
the course would be completed in time
before people took up Summer pleasures.
It is possible that rehearsals this season
will start at the end of this month, or tho
beginning of October, at the very latest.
The orchestra will be composed of be
tween 40 and 50 players, and it is likely
that five concerts will be given through
out the season. It Is about settled that
the four numbers to be given at the first
concert will be: .
"Overture to Athalla" Mendelssohn
"Slavonic Dances" Dvorzak
"B Flat Major Symphony" Schubert
"Serenade" Goldmark
The work of the orchestra has really
been so promising and educative that the
venture deserve a larger public support
than has yet been given. Ist season
there were many empty seats visible at
the Marquam Theater on orchestra con
cert nights, a fact that must be regretted,
considering the excellence of the pro
grammes, interest was aiowiy iiuuiicu, ------ . -RMoher tenor J Adrian

Episcopal Church at Morton, Pa., recently
went on a strike, because the choirmas
ter employed several girls to Assist them
In singing. The choirmaster asserted
that the boys' voices lacked power. This
Is an old complaint. He ought to have
a vested choir, composed of young men
and women.'' There would be no lack of
power, then.
The members of the Temple Beth
Israel choir are back in their place again.
TJie personnel will remain aa before,
with Mrs. Hose Bloch-Bauer as soprano
soloist and director; Miss LoewenDerg.
Portland people first began to appreciate
fine music and became sensible y the de
lights of this most charming of all arts
by hearing the Portland Symphony Or
chestra play. The public taste was edu
cated, a bond of sympathy was created
between musicians, and boys and girls re
ceived their first Insight Into the wonder-

Schllsinger, written specially for the
holiday service, which takes place early
next month.
News has been received of the death at
Vienna, at the age of 70, of Bodolf Blbl,
one of the greatest of Continental author-

certs were given, several or tne airs
played at the concerts were heard on pl-

several young musicians grew suddenly j
enthusiastic over BoBslnrs overture iu
"William Tell," by having the orchestra
play -It with such swing and dash.
VortunatPlv for the orchestra, the wom
en of the Music Club are noted for the.
success which invariably attends their er
forts, and the business -matters will be in
capable hands, especially the subscription
list. Many orchestras in other American
cities ended last season with heavy defic
its. It is not too much to expect that such
hearty support will bo given that in the
approaching season of the Portland Sym
phony Orchestra, all expenditures will be
met and a trifle left over. It Is a truism
that music, must be made to pay. r
ABOUT SINGERS AND PLAYERS
William McKlnley Is the name of the
new musical . director at the Colonial
Theater, Boston.
Kocian, the Bohemian violin virtuoso,
has chosen Ernst's F sharp minor con
certo for his debut,' in New York, in No
vember. Lilian Blauvelt, the well-known so
prano, expects to return to this country
In January. 1503, after her European
tour, and will sing In California, for the
first time,. .
A Portland music teacher remarked
lost week that scarcely a prinia donna
who becomes famous ever gives credit to
the singing master who first gave her
lessons In voice culture.
The thirteenth convention of the "Polish
Singers' Alliance of America, which re
cently opened at Chicago, was well at
tended. Plans were made to unite all
Polish singing societies throughout this
country.
The United States Marine Band played
a new musical setting to our National
hymn. "America," at Washington, D. C,
August 27. The bandmaster declined to
give the composer's name. The music
was well received.
The Chicago Musical College opens to
morrow for the season. The directors
have set aside 45 free scholarships which
will entitle the holder to Instruction free
of charge for one school years, and 150
partial echolarships.
Miss Sawyer, the new organist at the
First Congregational church, is a musi
cian of much ability, and as an accom
panist her work is particularly commend
able. It is unusual to find so brlllant a
pianist so good an accompanist.
Mrs. Gault, nee Conser, of Grant's
Pass, and formerly of this city, is spend
ing a few weeks here. Her voice Is un
usually rich and full and of a beautiful
quality. Mrs. Gault Is continuing her
vocal work with Mrs. Rose Bloch-Bauer.

done. The violin was again called Into
requisition and played close to the In

ier appearance, anppuratlon reased and a
complete cure was effected. In both
these cases It was noted that only certain
kinds of music were of benefit, showing
that vibrations must ho strictly In ac

the musicians of the Austrian court, and
had composed a large number of church
works.

Curious to relate, Mascagnl might not
have received such a brilliant offer to
come to this country, under the auspices
of the Mlttenthal Brothers, had the In

been played on a recent Sunday evening
by the orchestra of tne uoiei navarre.
New York. Aubrey Mlttenthal called at
the hotel to see S. Kronberg, the lmpres

talking, the orchestra began Mascagnl's
charming Intermezzo. "That's a favorite
of mine. Let's sit In the lobby and hear It

the music ceased, Mr. Kronberg said:
