Judgment, both In selections and ar
rangement, ono of this type, while
popular, being mora difficult to nr
rango properly than tho avorago psr

numbers wcro given, also a complete
cantata, tho well-known chorus from
Tannhnucr and thrco selections from
tho "Homj Maiden," ono of which was
a repetition of tho melodious "Wed

concert. Mr. Talllamller has tho ap
preciation of the real music lover In
introducing excerpts from tho ora
torio, which may be likened to the
symphony orchestras in ono sono. In
that thoy appeal to tho car and Imag
ination only, with no thought among
the performers of "technical flr

excollont nrtlelo on "Oratorio Per.

Iorformanco thoro Is no glamor of
light nud color. Thoro nro no pano
plied warriors or agonizing lovers.
Tho oratorio composer wrltos In the
Interest of the chorus ovon more than
In that of the soloist. The chorus
competes with no rival for popular
applause, the pestilent 'star system'
has no exlstoncc. The lyric, tho epic
nnd dramatic unite for urocullon of
an omotlon which Is kept within
healthful and elevating channels. Tho
opera can nover enter Into tho Itfo
of tho mass of art-loving peoplo as
the oratorio does, the spirit that
emanates from the oratorio uniting
more sympathetically with the moods
and exporloncos of the common life."
