It is the fourth of the London Series. This symphony had a performance at the concerts of the Boston Symphony Orches- tra, December 15-16, 1905, Wilhelm Gericke conducting, and a second on April 23, 1948. The symphony is scored for 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, timpani and strings. JTpms symphony was the fourth in the first of two series of six, each -^ composed by Haydn for Johann Peter Salomon for his concerts in London between 1791 and 1795. Haydn presided, according to custom, at the harpsichord and afterwards noted in his diary: "The first and last Allegros were encort [mc]." A review of a later performance in the Morning Chronicle is indication that this work was singled out for special favor: "Every instrument is respected by his Muse, for he gives to each his due proportion of efficacy.

Januar 1888 Ronald de Vet Čajkovskijs Aufenthalt in Leipzig im Januar 1888 bildet eine wohlbekannte Periode in sei- nem Leben – an erster Stelle dank seiner eigenen ausführlichen Erinnerungen, die ein Jahr nach seinem Tod publiziert wurden. 1 Auch in Briefen an seine Brüder, seinen Verleger Petr Jurgenson und seine Gönnerin Nadežda fon Mekk hat er viel erzählt über seine Erfahrungen und über die Personen, denen er in Leipzig begegnet ist. Dazu gehören Johannes Brahms, Edvard Grieg, sein ehemaliger Kollege Adol’f Brodskij und dessen Frau, Arthur Nikisch und Ferruccio Busoni. Wolfgang Glaab hat diese Quellen zu einer Monographie verarbeitet und viel Wissenswertes beigesteuert über die Stadt Leipzig, wie sie Čajkovskij gesehen und erfahren haben muss.2 Auch in der Grieg-Forschung hat die Begegnung der zwei berühmten Komponisten Beachtung gefunden. 3 Am 13.

Coupled with it in a 2-record album are excerpts from Wozzeck with Phyllis Curtin as Berg's non-heroine, Marie.

Although it is difficult to trace the origin of the French horn, it is generally accepted that it was developed in France during the 17th century • An outgrowth of the early primitive and the later sophisticated hunting horn, its value in the use of Fanfares was acclaimed during the reign of Louis XIII • It was also discovered that strange and wonderful musical effects could be had by inserting the hand in the bell • One of the first orchestral uses came in 1717 when Handel included the French horn in his score of the "Water Music" • The modern instrument embodies a main tube measuring approximately 7 feet 4 inches in length, coiled in circles and finally expanding into a widely flared bell • As the French horn lends its importance to the value of the modern symphony orchestra, so too does the trained and reliable insurance office develop a modern and sensible insurance program for business and personal accounts • We would welcome an opportunity to analyze your need for complete protection.
