r BACH'S MUSIC RULES NEW JERSEY
N
EW TORK, May 20. Montclalr,
New Jersey, is full of music lov
ers, students and devotees of
Bach music' who have come to
attend the third Bach festival in
th First Congregational church. Many
came long distances and a large delega
tion la here from Bethlehem, Pennsyl
vania, th home of the Bach cult
'.-. '.' Th . feaUvaL - which -comprises five
'"meetings," was opened i Friday noon
with aa organ preludium by Samuel P.
Warren of New Tork. Mr. .Warren, who
way be called the "dean" of American
organists, played the prelude in B
minor, three choral-prelude on chorale
frww "The Passion According to St.
Matthew." and. . tha . Paasocaglia Qn C
minor. - - i j
The principal feature of the festival
waa "Th Passion According to St
Matthew," sung by a chorus of 190
voices, with an orchestra of 50 instru
ments froin the Philharmonic aoclety
of New York. The first part of the
oratorio waa sung on Friday evening,
and the second on Saturday evening.
Old customa were adhered to, and
Bach's original orchestration was used
aa far as possible. The religious ele
ment, waa emphasised, too, the "serv
ices" opening with an invocation by the
minister, and closing with a benedic
tion. The whole effect waa very Im
pressive and brought out to a marked
degree the solemn grandeur of Bach's
Wonderful music ; j '--....
The evening meetings were opened
with the chorales, "Jesus Christ My Sure
Defense" and "When la -the Hour of
Greatest Need.' tXlrst pUyed by trotm
bones in the church tower, then by th
organ, rfnd then sung by the choirs and
the congregation. The odd part of it
is that the congregation really did in-
not only these chorales, but those con
tained in the body of the oratorio. Serv
ice specially devoted to the study of
these chorales have been held in the
church on the afternoons of the five
Sundays preceding the festival -,
The - chorus singing r was excellent.
The Bach choir, composed of 110 voice,
waa divided into two choruses, each
with its own orchestra and organ and
four solo singers, and was located in
the gallery In the rear of the church.
A choir of 60 voices, men, women and
boys, was in the organ "gallery . back
of the ministers. Tftc antlphonal effect
was superb. . , '

solitary grandeur upon a promontory
Jutting far out into th blue Medlterran
But it is not so, at all. The Casino
stands high upon a cliff overlooking
the sea, but so does the whole of the
town. . The gardens are by no means
spacious. The famous terrace is a com
paratively narrow strip, fronting th
sea this terrace upon '- which, the sui
cides (such as there are) occur, under
the cold stars of heaven and to th soft
murmur of the Mediterranean. It -is a
pretty garden,, set with trees and
shrubs and a winding path or two, but

cesses 'with which popular Imagination
has endowed It.

Neither is the gaming house set upon
a lonely 'hill; It Is flusk- with the
street; in front of it are Restaurants,

Before the Cote 1'Aiur rapids thun

its passengers, I nag lonaiy imagined a
wild scene of gaiety In the ; rooms, of
the strenuous life of excitement on the

smoking, of course, by the two sexes,
and everyone would - wear a desperate
and feverish, If not a villainous, air ,
the sinister glare of vultures busy with
the carcase, or the dreadful look of. the
hunted beast "
AH this I have certainly read about
in the novels of the day, but what I
saw was quite different : The whole at
