Lmstevoning's concert at tho Kingsbnry Music Hall was » notable nud brillisnt exception. It waa in overy way one of the pleasantest on- tortainmonts that have boon given in Chicago under the leaderebip of Mr. Thomas. It offered o greator variety than tho rogular run of bhis oroliestral concerts, and this varioty, fortu- nately, wna not seonred at tho sacriflco of any of tho rtistic ovennoss of hig porformances. It was an innovation io lis caso,—this sendwich- fng of instrumental and vocal solos, concerted piccos, and choruses,—but it is ono that wul not only warraut, but domand, repetition.
