, y the Portland Symphony orchestra
t the Heilig- theatre, Harold Bayley
inducting. . This twill be - the first
isme that the instrumentation lis been
i.jsrmented here to that extent, , -
The prelude 1 the second number on
the program, which open with the
"vorsplel" to Engelbert Humperdlnck's
r-rand opera, "Konlsskinder." Humper
iiinclc la better known here through
hi opera, "Hansel and OreteV which
a sung here by the Chicago Grand
Opera company. The "vr spiel" la
something decidedly new In the sym
phony. line, and will undoubtedly be
come a. favorite with symphony pa
trons. Jean - Sibelius' symphonic poem,
'Flnlandla." wilt be the third number
on this xceptlona4ry well-chosen pro
trram,' and It will be rendered here for
.he second time. "Finlandia" Is one
cr the most- popular of this Finnish
composer's works. His writings are
to a' great extent legendary. ,- "The
Swan c( Tuonela," played at the Jan
uary concert, was one-of the gems of
the- program. "Fmiandia" is- much
more ambitious work. Sibelius, too, is
modern, for the ' composer was born
at Tavastehus in 1865,
. Th Farewell' symphony by Haydn
wilt be the principal offering, and it
will be put on as by Haydn some 175
years ago, when he presented It for
the first ; time. This means that the
musicians will blow out their music
rack candles and leave the orchestra,
two at a time, during the rendition,
until but two of the principal violins
and the conductor remain.
. "Gitanllla" suite by P. Lacome, and
the overture "1812" by Tschaikowsky,
will; complete the program. The over
ture, is a magnificent number that
should bring the concert to a grand
climax.
The concert will begin promptly at
3 o'clock. It Is the fifth of the series
-of six for , the season. The advance
aJe during; the week was usually
heavy, and . a capacity audience Is
looked for.
