21In order not to disappoint the members of the Choral Union, who have thus far rendered so excellent service in rehearsing Haydn's "Seasons," it has been decided to give selections from this great masterpiece at a time during the last week of April, under the direction of Dr. N. J. Elsenheimer.
23A piano recital was given at Greensburg, Ind., a few days ago by Romeo Gorno, pianist, assisted by Miss Gertrude Zimmer, soprano, and Mrs. Gisela Weber, violinist, under the auspices of the Cecilian Society.

27Honor for Horatio W. Parker.
29NEW HAVEN, April 8, 1902.
31HORATIO W. PARKER, Battell professor of music at Yale University, will receive the degree Doctor of Music at the commencement exercises of Cambridge University, England, in June. He is at present in Paris, where he will remain till the Cambridge commencement. Professor Parker went to Munich last May on a year's leave of absence from the Yale faculty. He returned for the bicentennial exercises to conduct the production of his oratorio, "Hora Novissima," the chief musical feature of the bicentennial. He returned to Europe in November. He will take up his duties at Yale next fall.—Sun.
33Mr. Burritt's Summer Course.
35A VERY acceptable announcement is made to the effect that William Nelson Burritt, Chicago's famous vocal instructor, will remain in Chicago this summer and conduct a normal course of study, instead of going to Europe. For the benefit of teachers and singers an exceptionally attractive course has been prepared by Mr. Burritt, whose spacious studios are in the Kimball Building, Chicago.
37Mr. Burritt's abilities are widely recognized, and the admirable results of his work are well known.
39This summer course will present the claims of vocal art in a manner at once helpful and convincing.
41The charming climate to which Chicago is frequently subjected in the summer months has made it a favorite resort for the music student at such times.
43ARCHER GIBSON came here from Baltimore not a year ago as organist-director of the Brick Presbyterian Church, and in this time has made his personality felt, as may be seen by the following: On successive Mondays he gives a series of three recitals, the first next Monday, April 14, at 8; the others at 4:30 p. m. The first program is devoted exclusively to Bach's music, containing the Fantaisie and Fugue in G minor, the Toccata and Fugue in D minor, Prelude and Fugue in E minor, some choral Preludes, Concerto, Canzona and Finale, and the entire choir of twenty voices will assist, singing the sacred cantata, "God's Time Is the Best."
45Admission by card only, obtainable at the church door or from Mr. Gibson.
47Schirmer will soon publish his transcription of "Isolden's Liebestod," and the same firm has issued the five-part male chorus, which is to be sung at the next Apollo Club concert.
49His Easter program included a festival "Te Deum" of his own, for quartet, chorus, soprano, duo, harp and organ.
51He gives an organ recital in Baltimore April 15, plays at the Mendelssohn Glee Club's "Club Night," New York, the following night, and will give a recital at the Newburgh meeting of the New York State Music Teachers' Association, June 25.
53Edwin Lockhart, baritone, and Marie Kuhr, pianist, assisted by Emma Williams, alto; Wm. P. de Nike, 'cellist, and Henrietta Schiebe, accompanist, gave a concert at the Waldorf last week, which was well attended. Mr. Lockhart sang these numbers: "Sunset," Buck; "The Two Grenadiers," Schumann; "O du mein Holder Abendstern," Wagner.
55Mr. Lockhart has a resonant voice of expressive powers, united with intelligent use of the same, as well as dignified stage appearance, and the result is that his singing is highly enjoyable. He had to bow many times in response to applause, also singing encores. With Miss Williams he united in the closing number, Goring-Thomas' "Night Hymn at Sea," which made a fine climax. Miss Kuhr, pianist, and the others lent agreeable variety.
57Bruno Huhn's recital on Thursday afternoon enlisted the participation of Miss Ethel Crane, soprano; Miss Grace Campbell, alto; Mr. Gordon, tenor; Heinrich Meyn, bass; Hans Kronold, 'cello; Miss Avice Boxall, harp. A miscellaneous first part was given, followed by Schumann's op. 74, the "Spanisches Liederspiel," for four voices, seldom heard nowadays, though composed in 1849.
59There was a goodly attendance, among others the following patronesses: Mrs. Thomas Bassford, Mrs. William Bunker, Mrs. H. Durant Cheever, Mrs. Everett M. Culver, Mrs. Charles H. Ditson, Mrs. Frederick Edey, Miss Julia H. Henry, Mrs. Edward M. Knox, Mrs. Heinrich Meyn, Mrs. Alfred H. Peats, Mrs. John F. Plummer, Mrs. William T. Bull, Mrs. Henry C. Coe, Mrs. Paul D. Cravath, Mrs. Joseph W. Cushman, Mrs. Charles du Vivier, Mrs. John L. Elliot, Mrs. Dunlop Hopkins, Mrs. James E. Martin, Mrs. Chester B. Overbaugh, Mrs. I. Fred Pierson, Mrs. Roger A. Pryor and Mrs. James H. Warner.
61Last Saturday afternoon, at the Tuxedo, Miss Margaret Goetz and Julian Pascal united in the first of two recitals for young people, the object of the recitals being to show the difference in style and character of the music of the great masters. Preceding each number there were interesting remarks by Miss Goetz on the work and lives of the various composers. Mr. Pascal had borrowed a genuine clavichord, similar to the one for which Bach wrote his preludes and fugues, on which he gave illustrations.
63Bach, Mozart, Schubert, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Taubert, Hildach and Root were the composers represented.
65The last recital occurs the coming Saturday at 3.
67At recent Friday "At Homes" at Miss Thursby's these singers have been heard: Mrs. Hoag-Haughey, soprano at the West Presbyterian Church; Miss Josephine Shaffer, soprano; Miss Reba Cornett, Miss Mahel Custer, contralto, of Philadelphia, a pupil of Miss Thursby, who made a decided hit by her singing; Mrs. Blondal! Pollock, who has recently returned from Paris; Mme. Skabo, the Norwegian composer and pianist; Miss Beebe and Mr. Alling, piano duets. one of two readings

72We understand that Mr. Janpolski, the baritone, owing to the increasing demands for his services in this country, has decided to remain in New York another year. This versatile artist intends giving in the near future a series of recitals. The first will be composed entirely of German masters, the second of the Italian and French, and third of Russian and English, all of which will be sung in the original text.
74Mr. Janpolski has at last definitely decided to accept the baritone position at Clinton Avenue Church, Brooklyn, where during the year all the noted oratorios and cantatas will be given at stated intervals.
