S gedbner’s _ Fifth Played by Philharmonic Stransky Gives the Sym- phony a First Hearing tn New York—Lillian Nordica Featured in a Miniature Recital. BY SYLVESTER RAWLING. STRANSKY gave significance f the Philharmonic Society's oon- cert in Carnegie Hall last night by for the first time in New York Bruckner’s fifth symphony tn B flat major and engaging Lillian Nordica aa eoloist. He was rewarded by the at- tendance and the applause of @ large audience. But !sn't Mr. Stransky rather overdeing his efforts to make these con- certs more popular? Mme. Nordica ts ‘=m arti of whom ell Americans are proud. But what excuse was there for permitting her to give a miniature song fecitel in the middie of @ symphony pregremme? ‘Phat is preaisely what happened. ‘Be- fween the unfamiliar work of Bruck~ per’s and Beethoven's classic “Leonore” overture No. 3, while the members of the band wero cooling their heels in the @orridors, Mme. Nordica, on an empty atage, to the plano accompaniment of EB. Romayne Simmons, sang four songs that were announced and added an- other. That many persons in the au- ence were pleased might waying, but what of the feelings of the regular subscribers to the orchestra? , Nordica’s songs comprised De- Bobubert’s done-to-death j'Erl King,” in the delivery of which her voice sounded sirprisingly fresh and young. Bruckner’s fifth symphony is not Itkely tO become popular. It is a fine piece of Workmanship by a competent musician, but #€ discloses no lofty inspired mo- went. The underlying motives may be fadth and abnogation, but the principal Mt nt to express those vir- ie not partioularly attractive, are pizzicato accompaniments, time to time, that are pleasing, and there are some snatches of beauty jm the adagio and the scherzo, but tho is thore noisy than great. The @horale played by an auxiliary band of prasees reminds one of Sousa. The only @flerence is that our own inimitable - brings his men forward to way their proclamations, while Bruok- ‘er has directed that his be kept in the @transky ts to be congretulated the earnestness and intelligence I st Lei ; wang it with distinction, but not with a presciene ‘hat r 6 jeux’ emp <a he played brilliantly. nd his made the in coneert rooms, sit 74 irited interpretation of ye noisy but effective “1812" of Techal- kowaky's. “Koenigskinder” drew another great audience to the Metropolitan Opera House last night.
