1Symphony Season, 1901-2.
3WE republish herewith the list of compositions given during the season of 1901-2 by four renowned conductors. They offer a very interesting study of comparisons, and it must be remembered that the season of Gericke and Thomas extends about half of the year, while the concerts of Arthur Nikisch that are herewith covered represent ten regular Philharmonic concerts in Berlin and the benefit performance in that city, and do not embrace the many concerts conducted by Arthur Nikisch in other cities of Europe, such as the regular season of Hamburg and Hanover, and the traveling concerts of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, which extend over the Continent, and also concerts which are conducted by Arthur Nikisch in London.
5The New York Philharmonic embraces eight programs only.
