It was first per- formed at the Theater an der Wien, Vienna, December 22, 1808. The symphony was described on the programme as "A symphony entitled 'Recollections of Life in the Country,' in F major, No. 5" (sic). All the pieces performed were by Beethoven: an Aria, "Ah, perfido," sung by Josephine Kilitzky; Hymn with Latin text written in church style, with chorus and solos; Pianoforte Concerto in G major, played by Beethoven; Grand Symphony in C minor. No. 6 (sic); Sanctus, with Latin text written in church style from the Mass in C major, with chorus and solos; Fantasie for pianoforte solo; Fantasie for piano- forte, "into which the full orchestra enters little by little, and at the end the chorus joins in the Finale." The concert began at half-past six. We know nothing about the pecuniary result. There was trouble about the choice of a soprano. Anna Pauline Milder, the singer for whom Beethoven wrote the part of Fidelio, was chosen. Beethoven happened to meet Hauptmann, a jeweller, who was courting her. In a strife of words he called him "stupid ass!" lARLY AMERICAN Edited, arranged and supplied with Pianoforte accompeiniments by THE FIRST AMERICAN COMPOSER COLONIAL LOVE LYRICS 5 songs by Francis Hopkinson 6 songs by Francis Hopkinson For high or low voice For high or low voice (Schmidt' s Educational Series, No.2tS a,h) 1.25 {ScliTnidVs Educational Series, No.ZlS a,}}', 1.25 PIONEER AMERICAN COMPOSERS 7 songs from Victor Pelissier, P.

BRAHMS AND CLARA SCHUMANN BY FERDINAND SCHUMANN.' 1894 7NTOVEMBER 9. Brahms arrived here to-day from Vienna, and is living with us. At dinner I saw him for the first time in a long while-a corpulent little gentleman, with a full beard beginning to turn gray. The very odd mustache is fiery red on one side and gray on the other. His voice is un- usually high and clear and sounds as if it were cracked.

In this remarkable performance the emotions, tensions and, perhaps most of all, the superb structure of the work come through with brilliant clarity. Coupled with it in a 2-record album are excerpts from Wozzeck with Phyllis Curtin as Berg's non-heroine, Marie. Another symphonic masterpiece, Brahms' First Symphony, exhibits the Bostonians' famed "glorious mellow roar" in a Dynagroove recording which, Jike the Mahler, cannot fail to enrich any collection of fine music.
