3The festival leader will be Theodore Müller-Reuter, of Crefeld. Several composers will direct their own works. The list of soloists includes Professor Halir, Henri Marateau, Hugo Dechert, Conrad Ansorge, Adolph Müller, Georg Schumann, Professor Thuille, Arthur van Ewijk, Dr. Walter, Dr. Neitzel, Thila Plaichinger and many other lesser celebrities.
5"Odysseus' Death," a music drama in three acts which forms the final portion of Bungert's "Odysse," will have its very first performance at Dresden next fall. I learn that Bungert will soon change his residence permanently from Berlin to the Saxonian capital.
7Ernst Kraus, the heroic tenor of the Berlin Royal Opera House who recently sang at Carlsruhe, has been made happy through the bestowal upon him of the title of "chamber singer" by the Grand Duke of Baden.
9Prof. Martin Krause, the well-known piano pedagogue, has changed his residence from Leipsic to Munich, 38 Georgenstrasse, where he will give private lessons as well as teach at the Royal Academy of Music. One of Professor Krause's pupils, Louis Elbels, a young Chicago pianist, recently made a great hit at Cologne with the performance of Tschaikowsky's B flat minor Concerto.
11Prof. Emanuel Wirth will on October 18 next celebrate his sixtieth birthday anniversary, and at the same time the twenty-fifth anniversary of his entrance as viola player in the famous Joachim Quartet and as a member of the teaching staff of the Royal High School for Music. A committee has been formed for the purpose of celebrating in a worthy manner the above event. Among the members of said committee are Prof. Dr. Joachim, Professors Halir, Barth, Markees, General Musik Director, Fritz Steinbach and a number of other musicians. All American pupils and friends of Professor Wirth who take an interest in this jubilee celebration will please send their address to J. M. van Veen, Berlin, W., Leitpold str., 38, who is also ready to answer questions and send particulars about the affair.
13Arthur von Holwede, the indefatigable and always amiable director of Steinway & Sons' piano factory at Hamburg, despite his arduous duties still manages to find time for musical composition, to which he is ardently devoted. Recently the Hamburg Male Chorus Vocal Society, under Prof. Richard Barth's direction, sang a four part chorus of his, entitled "True Love," which met with an enthusiastic reception on the part of the audience, and is highly spoken of by the critics.
15Next week at Whitsuntide the usual Netherhenish music festival will be held at Duesseldorf. I shall attend and you will hear from me on the subject in due time.

19Death of a Young California Musician.
21OWEN FOSTER, a young musician of exceptional ability, died May 23 at the Good Samaritan Hospital, Los Angeles, of blood poisoning, resulting from an ulcerated tooth. Mr. Foster was organist at St. Paul's Pro-Cathedral at Los Angeles. His talents in composition were manifested in a number of choral works and in an operetta, "La Fiesta de San Xavier," which was produced in Los Angeles, in Topeka, Kan., and in San Diego two years ago, each of the performances being under the composer's direction.
