3TORONTO, September 22, 1906.
5Toronto Events.
7J. D. Richardson, leader of the Broadway Tabernacle Choir, has returned from a three months' sojourn in Europe.
9The Westminster Glee and Concert Party will be heard at Massey Hall on the evening of October 6.
11J. M. Sherlock has returned, after an extended vacation, and rehearsals of "Judas Maccabeus" will begin at once, 300 copies having been secured from England for the Sherlock Oratorio Society.
13It is probable that both Mme. Sembrich and Mme. Gadski will be heard in Toronto this season.
15Yvette Guilbert and Albert Chevalier will begin their extensive American tour at Massey Hall, Toronto, on the evening of October 8.
17George Arnold, a young Canadian composer, formerly of Quebec, is coming to Toronto to reside.
19Jessie Macleachlan will sing, under the auspices of the Sons of Scotland, at Massey Hall on September 27.
21Much regret is felt owing to the death this week of Mrs. Walter S. Andrews, whose artistic home in Rosedale, Toronto, has been the scene of many delightful musical events.
23Dr. Charles A. E. Harriss writes: "Dr. Camille Saint-Saëns is coming to identify himself with the second cycle of Musical Festivals of the Dominion, which will not take place until the spring of 1908."
25Today the Toronto Conservatory of Music makes the following liberal announcement of scholarships for the present season:
27For open competition under the following teachers: Piano—J. W. F. Harrison, W. J. McNally, George D. Atkinson, Maude Gordon, A.T.C.M.; Ethel Rolls. Voice—F. H. Burt, Mus. Bac.; Mrs. J. W. Bradley, tenor; Miss Jennie E. Williams, A.T.C.M.; Mrs. H. W. Parker, A.T.C.M.; Miss Denzil. Organ—Miss Hamilton, A.T.C.M. Violin—Mrs. B. Drechsler Adamson, Lina D. Adamson, Lena M. Hays, A.T.C.M.

29Also elementary piano, three free and twenty partial scholarships. Candidates for the elementary piano must be under sixteen years, and shall not have had more than one quarter's instruction.

Winners of scholarships have all conservatory advantages. Applications must be made personally not later than October 7. Due notice will be given all candidates of the date of competition.
31Leoncavallo, his orchestra and singers will be heard here on October 18.
33It is to be hoped that Mme. Bloomfield-Zeisler will play in this and other Canadian cities this season.
35Since Sir Edward Elgar has accepted the invitation of Dr. Charles A. E. Harriss to visit Montreal next spring, the hope has been expressed that Toronto may enjoy the same honor.
37The Male Chorus Club has just elected the following officers: Honorary president, W. H. Brouse; president, T. H. Litster; first vice president, Reginald F. Argles; second vice president, W. M. Douglas; honorary treasurer, E. S. Dimock; librarian, E. C. Tyrrell; executive committee, Thomas Bilton, J. Fraser MacDonald, E. P. Beatty, J. Alexander, Frank E. Blachford and S. B. Brush. J. D. A. Tripp is the capable conductor. MAY HAMILTON.
39Some Popular Huhn Songs.
41The demand for the popular songs by Bruno Huhn continues at the leading music stores. One of the best sellers for the male voices is "The Plague of Love," a melody by the late Dr. Arne, harmonized by Mr. Huhn, for tenor, baritone and basso. "A Child Was Born in Bethlehem," a Christmas song, will soon be in favor as the holiday season approaches. "I Arise from Dreams of Thee" is a setting to a poem by Shelley. "Neath the Apple Trees" is another song that will please. All of these are written for high and low voices.
