The strongest impressions of the concert season are linked with Baldwintone, exquisitely exploited by pianists eminent in their art. Schnitzer, Pugno, Scharwenka, Bachaus — De Pachmann! More than chance attracts the finely-gifted amateur to this keyboard. Among people who love good music, who have a culti- vated knowledge of it, and who seek the best medium for producing it, the Baldwin is chief. In such an atmosphere it is as happily "at home" as are the Preludes of Chopin, the Liszt Rhapsodies upon a virtuoso's programme. THE BOOK OF THE BALDWIN free upon request. Symphony No. 5 . Gustav Mahi^r (Born at Kalischt, in Bohemia, July 7,* i860; died at Vienna, May 18, 191 1.) This symphony, known to some as "The Giant Symphony," was performed for the first time at a Giirzenich concert at Cologne, October 18, 1904. The composer conducted. There was a difference of opinion concerning the merits of the work. A visiting critic from Munich wrote that there was breathless silence after the first movement, "which proved more effectively than tremendous applause that the public was conscious of the presence of genius." It is stated that after the finale there was much applause; there was also hissing. The symphony was played for the first time in the United States by the Cincinnati Orchestra at Cincinnati on March 25, 1905. When the symphony was performed in certain German cities, as at Dresden, January 27, 1905, at a symphony concert of the Royal Orches- tra, and at Berlin, February 20, 1905, at a Philharmonic concert, the programme books contained no analytical notes and no argument of any sort. The compilers thus obeyed the wish of the composer. Mr. " Ludwig Schiedermair tells us, in his Gustav Mahler : eine biographisch- (Leipsic, Hermann Seemann Nachfolger, s. d.) kritische Wiirdigung" } of Mahler's abhorrence of all programme books for concert use, and he relates this anecdote. Mahler conducted a performance of his Sym- phony in C minor at a concert of the Munich Hugo Wolf Society. After the concert there was a supper, and in the course of the conver- sation some one mentioned programme books. "Then was it as though lightning flashed in a joyous, sunny landscape. Mahler's eyes were more brilliant than ever, his forehead wrinkled, he sprang in excite- ment from the table and exclaimed in passionate tones: 'Away with programme books, which breed false ideas! The audience should be * Mahler's parents, as he himself said, believed July i the correct date, but the papers relating to his birth-date were lost. pe: (ITALIAN METHOD) (Pupil of Luigi Vannuccini, Florence, Italy.)

If a composer by his music forces on his hearers the sensations which streamed through his mind, then he reaches his goal. The speech of tones has then approached the language of words, but it is far more capable of expression and declaration.' And Mahler ,, ' raised his glass and emptied it with-'Pereat den Programmen! Yet Mr. Mahler's enthusiastic admirer and partisan, Ernst Otto Nodnagel, of Darmstadt, contributed to Die Musik (second November number and first December number of 1904) a technical analysis of the Fifth Symphony, an analysis of twenty-three large octavo pages, with a beautiful motto from Schiller. This analysis, published by Peters, and sold for the sum of thirty pfennig, is within reach of the humblest. The symphony was completed in the spring of 1903. It was written in 1901-02 at his little country house near Maiernigg on Lake Worther. Other works of this date are the " Kindertotenlieder " and other songs with Riickert's verses. The symphony is scored for four flutes (the third and fourth interchangeable with piccolo), three oboes, three clar- inets (the third interchangeable with bass clarinet), two bassoons, one double-bassoon, six horns (in third movement a horn obbligato), four trumpets, three trombones, one bass tuba, kettledrums, snare-drum, bass drum, cymbals, triangle, Glockenspiel, gong, harp, and strings. The movements are as follows: Part I. 1. Funeral march, C-sharp minor, 2-2. With measured step. With marked precision. Like a funeral train. 2. A minor, 4-4. With stormy emotion.

Let us respect the wishes of the composer who looked on analytical or explanatory programmes as the abomination of desolation. Yet it may be said that in the Rondo-Finale, after the second chief motive enters as the subject of a fugal section, one of the lesser themes used in the development is derived from Mahler's song, "Lob des hohen Verstands" (relating to the trial of skill between the nightingale and the cuckoo with the ass as judge). * * * Mahler visited Boston as conductor of the Metropolitan Opera House and as conductor of the Philharmonic Society of New York.

R, LELAND & SON - - Worcester, Mass. THE function of the Boston Symphony Orchestra always has been to provide music of the highest class in the most perfect manner humanly possible. Such was the sole object foi its founder, and that this ideal has been not only attained, but maintained, finds eloquent testimony in the generous and loyal support given to the Orchestra in the past twenty^eight years by the most discriminating musical publics in America. Only by adhering steadfastly to this ideal since its founda- tion has the Orchestra been able to hold its present position — without a superior in the world and without a peer in this country. Commercial considerations have never been permitted to interfere with or to obstruct its .artistic progress. It has ex- isted as nearly for art's sake alone as is possible in such a great organization. The result of this wise policy is an orchestra which is famous in all countries where the art of music is practised, an orchestra which is accepted as a model to be fol- lowed by all others, an orchestra whose concerts are eagerly sought by all cities, whose coming is always an event of prime importance in a musical season.
