Tho engagement of the : . Boston
Symphony Orchestra to give a series
of concerts in May at the Panama
Pacific. Fair in San Francisco Is a
remarkable tribute to the place held
in the world of music by that famous
organization. ; '-
Negotiations to this end were begun
early In the fall and continued for
several months before contracts were
finally made. There were many diffi
culties to be overcome in Boston.
The engagement meant that the en
tire orchestra must be "kept together
four weeks longer than the usual
season. It meant also that Boston
must lose through the month of May
the Pop concerts which for 30 years
have been a peculiar feature of that
city. In ordinary years such a trip
by the orchestra would have been im
possible on account of the engage
ments of Dr. Muck, Its conductor, in
Europe.' This spring, had not the
great war come. Dr. Muck was bound
to conduct a series of special perform
ances of Wagner's music dramas in
the Royal Opera of Dresden during
the months of May and June. These
performances, however, are not to be
given, and Dr. Muck does not have to
hurry back to fill professional duties
on the other side. The stoppage of
all music in Europe has also released
some of the principal members of tho
orchestra who have European engage
ments during the late spring and
early summer. The entire personnel
of the orchestra goes to San Fran
cisco. This comprises 20 violins, 10
violas. 10 'cellos, eight double basses.
16 wood-winds, 17 brass players, two
harps and eight men In the percussion
department- and extras.
Dr. Muck isinow at work on the
program for i the concerts, which will
be announced In a short time.

Eraile . Charles Waldteufel, the
