1BROOKLYN.
3BROOKLYN, November 25, 1905.
5SOCIETY is planning a royal welcome to Madame Gadski and Ellison van Hoose when they come to Brooklyn, Friday, December 1, to sing under the auspices of the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences. The great German soprano is one of the few singers in the world who combines youth with consummate art. Hardly out of her teens when she was first heard in opera, she has developed, after an experience of some ten years, into a noble interpreter, and a noble woman as well. The domestic life of an artist need not concern the public, but nevertheless the hearts of the great mass of people go out to the womanly woman, who is as beautiful in the home circle as she is charming before the footlights.
7Van Hoose is another artist whom the American people delight to honor. He is a manly singer, with a ringing, pure tenor voice. He, too, is an interpreter of high rank, and so music lovers may look forward to Friday night as a rare gala occasion. The reception to these artists is not to be an exclusive affair. All persons who attend the concert are invited to adjourn to the chapel of the Temple after the last number and meet Madame Gadski and Mr. van Hoose. The two committees for the social part of the evening have been arranged as follows:

106The list of arias and songs that Madame Gadski and Mr. Van Hoose will sing is nothing less than extraordinary. Both have included American composers in their numbers.

146By playing a fragment of a quartet by Frederick A. Stock, the Kneisel Quartet showed once more that they are on the lookout for novelties, but in all humility might we ask, why the whole of the work was not played? The Brooklyn Institute is justified in demanding short programs, but there are times when, for art's sake, the rule might be relaxed. The scherzo played from Mr. Stock's quartet in C minor, still in manuscript, pulsates with vitality and interest. By all means let us have the entire quartet at one of the concerts this season. The concert was given in Association Hall Thursday evening, and the list of works played were Haydn's quartet in D major, a trio for two violins and viola by Dvorák, and two solos for 'cello by Dvorák. The soloist was Alwin Schroeder. An evening of delightful music delightfully played.
148Mary Theresa Pearl Craigie, who is known to the world of literature as John Oliver Hobbes—what does she know about Brahms? The brilliant novelist, who is now with us, will deliver a special lecture before the Brooklyn Institute Thursday evening, December 7, and her topic will be "The Artists' Life—Balzac, Brahms, Turner."
150William G. Hammond, organist and musical director of the First Reformed Church, corner of Seventh avenue and Carroll street, arranged an excellent program for the concert at the church Tuesday night for the benefit of the music fund. Mr. Hammond was assisted by the quartet choir—Ethel Crane, Marie Adele Stillwell, Benjamin M. Case and Dr. Eugene Walton Marshall. Mr. Case sang two of Mr. Hammond's songs, "To My First Love" and "Love's Springtime." Miss Stillwell, the contralto, also sang two of Mr. Hammond's songs, "Cloud Shadows" and "Recompense," and Miss Crane, the soprano, was likewise heard in two of Mr. Hammond's clever compositions, "Re-
