Through this passage of time many changes have been made in the original design. The early instruments shown in drawings on the tomb of Rameses II (1292-1225 B.C.) were richly decorated but lacked the fore-pillar. Later the "Kinner" developed by the Hebrews took the form as we know it today. The pedal harp was invented about 1720 by a Bavarian named Hochbrucker and through this ingenious device it be- came possible to play in eight major and five minor scales complete. Today the harp is an important and familiar instrument providing the "Exquisite Sound" and special effects so important to modern orchestration and arrange- ment.

To salute their friend on this happy occasion Mr Leinsdorf and members of the Orchestra play at the concert on November 24 the Old Hundredth chorale, and the movement 'Sheep no. 208, written to celebrate may safely graze' from J. S. Bach's Cantata another birthday some 250 years ago. Miss Lang is one of the five women whose music has been played by the Boston Symphony Orchestra; Arthur Nikisch conducted perform- ances of her Dramatic Overture in 1893, and Gertrude Franklin sang her concert aria Armida with Emil Paur conducting in 1896. Philip Hale reported in his review that 'the Overture was applauded and there was a vain attempt to call the composer forward'. Margo Miller of The Boston Globe wrote in an article published earlier this year that Miss Lang well remembers the incident: 'I crept up to the balcony and hid.' Margaret Ruthven Lang's father was the distinguished and enterprising Boston musician Benjamin Johnson Lang, conductor, teacher and com- poser. He conducted the world premiere in Boston of Tchaikovsky's First Piano Concerto with Hans von Biilow as soloist, and the first American concert performance of Parsifal. Miss Lang spent some of her early years in Munich, Germany, and met many of the famous musicians of the time; she knew the Wagner family well. Talking to Miss Lang today one cannot believe that she grew up before Symphony Hall was built. She has a vivacity and alertness that would put many people half her age to shame. The Trustees, Mr Leinsdorf, the Orchestra and all who work at Symphony Hall wish Margaret Ruthven Lang a happy birthday. 455 i FONDUE A LA DANSK Perfect late supper fare — apres ski or Symphony!

All of a sudden everybody's talking about avoiding probate. And about the best-selling book that tells you how. No doubt about it — a Living Trust is an ingenious device. It lets you pass your property on to your heirs directly without the delay, expense and publicity of the probate court. And without giving up control of it while you're alive. Further, a Living Trust properly drawn can save your heirs substantial sums in estate taxes.

  • An Historical Timeline of Events Concerning the Boston Music Hall, the "Great Organ" and the Methuen Memorial Music Hall
    AN HISTORICAL TIMELINE OF EVENTS CONCERNING THE BOSTON MUSIC HALL, THE "GREAT ORGAN" AND THE METHUEN MEMORIAL MUSIC HALL 1837 The initial development of the organization that was later to become known as "The Harvard Musical Association" was started by a group of Harvard College graduates in July. As students, these graduates had been members of the Pierian Sodality, established in 1808. The graduates met with some fifty prominent citizens of Boston to form a new society, the chief goals of which were to be "...the promotion of musical taste and science in the University, ...to enrich the walls of Harvard with a complete musical library, ...and to prepare the way for regular musical instruction in the College". The new society was initially known as "The General Association of Past and Present Members of the Pierian Sodality". 1840 The society known as "The General Association of Past and Present Members of the Pierian Sodality" changed its name to "The Harvard Musical Association". 1851 The need for a large and centrally-located concert hall for Boston was discussed at the annual meeting of The Harvard Musical Association on Friday, January 31. A Music Hall Committee, comprised of members Robert E. Apthorp, George Derby, John Sullivan Dwight, Charles Callahan Perkins and Dr. Jabez Baxter Upham, was appointed to address the matter. The Music Hall Committee of The Harvard Musical Association selected a site for the proposed hall in the center of the block bounded by Tremont Street, Washington Street, Winter Street and Bromfield Street in February. The Music Hall Committee of The Harvard Musical Association engaged architect George Snell to draw up plans for the proposed hall in April.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Colby Quarterly by an authorized editor of Digital Commons @ Colby. Cary: Jewett to Dresel: 33 Letters Colby Library Quarterly 13 JEWETT TO DRESEL: 33 LETTERS By RICHARD CARY n Annie Fields's edition of Sarah Orne Jewett letters there are I two to Miss Louisa Dresel- one from Aix-les-Bains, June 14, 1898 (pp. 152-154); one from Kingston, Jamaica, Jan­ uary 30, 1899 (pp. 162-164) - both addressed familiarly to HLoulie." Consistent with her policy of minimal clarification (in some 250 pages she supplies just eighteen footnotes, four­ teen of which contain five words or less), Mrs. Fields volun­ teers no cues to Dresel's identity. Indeed, she does not even append the omitted year of the June letter, which must be inferred from its position in sequence. The rippling tone and palpable affection that suffuse these letters posit long acquain­ tance, profound respe·ct, and not a little thrust of influence be­ tween correspondent and recipient. Yet, nowhere in Jewett biographical literature does Louisa Dresel command more than fleeting mention, and as often as not her name is misspelled. A sheaf of letters written by Jewett to Dresel recently ac­ quired by Colby College Library help to rectify this oversight and place the quality of their relationship in proper focus.
