PK DVOUAK'S AMERICAN' SYMPHONY.
*t the second open rehearsal of the Phllhar
onlc Society in ,ne BflUOhl nail this afternoon, An?
tonin Pvorak-s new symphony. In ? minor, will
Have its first public heurlng. The production of a
ew symphony by the eminent Hohemian com?
er jrouM be a matter of profound Interest under
any circumstances, but to this occasion is given a
unique and special value by the fact that in the
new work Pr. PvoraU has exemplified his theories
touching the possibility Of founding a National
gchool of composition on the folk-song of America,
His benet on this point, put forth In an Incom?
plete and bungUng manner through newspaper pub?
lications last Sprlag, created a great deal of com
"'""? u,,;t a in ri?>'<. called thc Scots snap or
. o,;., ?f'*V" a 'HrKe rf,l? lu English i aiad
writ.nfc. and also in the songs, secular and re
igious. of the negroes or our South, lt may have
been introduced here through the medium of the
ballads which the negro** heard th*lr whit* mas?
ters sing, but this conclusion ls not at all neces?
sary. It ls a pervasive element In African music,
and doubtless resulted from the structural pecul?
iarity of Bom* African languages, lt ls found in I
Hungarian music, too. where it is essential to a
correct rending of song texts; but there ii la B*?"
orally In the middle of a measure, Instead of at Its
beginning. .Moreover, lt ls the most pervaaivs
rhythmical peculiarity of the music of cur plain*
Indians, but on this point it ls not necessary to lay
flfjjsesWdfa) pw nanto*,.

ent at the time, the bulk of which wns dlatin
lihed by flippancy and a misconception of the
Mnposer's meaning and purposes, only among his
collesffnes In Europe did his utterances find ln
tplllg<-rit appreciation; for they knew what Pr.
Dvorak had done for B hernias music, and they nlso

imerica capable of being utllteed In the construc?
tion of art-worhs dbrtincthr* in character, he would
^ ?!,],, io demonstrate the fact. Much of the
American criticism was based on the notion that
j. in 'rican music Pr. Dvorak meant the songs of
jjtephen C. Foster and other contributors to old
time negro minstrelsy, and that tbs school of which
m dreamed was to devote itself to the writing of
variation* on "Tbs Old Folks at Home" and tunes
of its class Ouch a blunder, pardonable enough in
jv., popular mind, was yet Scarcely venial on the
?art ol composers and aewepaper reviewers, who
h'a: bad opportunities to study the method* of Pr.
Dvorak In bbl published compositions. Neither is lt
creditable to them, though perhaps not quite so
nameworthy, that they have so long remained
indiflerent to the treasures of folk-song which
America contains. Tho origin of that folk-song
h?g int!-, to do with tbs argument. If it shall turn
out that in lt there are elements which appeal to
the musKal predilections of the American people.
As a mutter of fSCt, that which is most charac?
teristic, most beautiful and most vitul in our folk
any Stress since Indinn music, though it may ence
have Influenced the negroes of the South, hes never
bad any effect upon the tastes of th,- white people
of America, if there ls anything Pillan about Dr.
Dvorak's symphony lt is only the mood Inspired by
the contemplation of Indian legend and romance,
nnl that ls outside the sphere of this discussion.
The energy imparted to musical movcmtnl by the
Scotch snap is. however, unmistakable, and Dr.
Dvorak has well understood that its Influence up ci
his work will be felt by its bearer* as a natural
expression of one of the characteristics of the
Ainerlc.'in people,
Tb* second element ls melodie. The phrase p.
built on the pentatonic, or live-note seal--, which
omits the fourth and seventh tones of Ottr ordinary
diatonic S'-ries. Here, too, lt mlpht bs urged that
Dr. Dvorak ls no more American than he ls Scotch,
Irish or Chinese, for the old music of these peo?
ples and manv others ls marked by this peculiarity.
The fact ls that this scale is the BOOM naturally
melodious of any In the world, and. therefore, the
most general In folk-music. The msjority of the.
fd *w#K*.
songs of the Omaha Indians, collected by Miss
Am ?? Fletcher and printed by the peabody Museum
ol Harvard College, stew this melodic peculiarity.
lt ls also common to the slave songs of the
South, and probably has the same right to be call I
an aboriginal African element as the rhythmical
tigur.- already discussed, lt ls certainly aboriginal
American, but that fact goes for little or nothing.

?one has como from the negro slaves of the South,
partly because those slaves lived In the period of
emotional. Intellectual and social development
Which produces folk-song, partly because they lived
* life that prompted utterance In song and partly
because as a race the negroes are musical by na?
ture. Being musical and living a life that had In
, lt romantic elements of pleasure as well es suf
ferlng, they gave expression to those elements In
longs which reflect their original nature as modi?
fied by their American environment. Pr. Dvorak,
to whom music is a language, was nhlc quickly to
discern the characteristics of the new lll->m and
to recognize Its availability and value. H> recog.
Shad, too. what hts critics forg it, that that music
is entitled to bs called characteristic of a people
whlc'i fcives the great'st pleaaOTB to the larges!
fraction of a people, it w-as therefore a matter of
india, renee to him whether the melodies which
mad* the successful appeal were cause or effect;
In tith> r case they were worthy of his attention.
He has not said thes? things In words, but he has
attered them In the nev symphony which he calls
"From the New World" The work ls not yet
published, though lt ls In th" hands of Slmrock, of
Berlin. To the Philharmonic Society bs gav* the
privilege (,f a first performance from the manu?
script, an act not only of courtesy, but one bavins

thc.-' who shall hear the Symphony this afternoon

American character consists, for though Wa wish
to reserve the privilege of discussing Its merit as
a work of art until after the public performance
has afforded better opportunities for forming an
opinion than h;,ve yet bein offered, there need bs
Ho hesitation lr. Baying that the music fully Justi?
fies the title which Pr. Dvorak has given lt. The
basis of this article ls a hearing at a private re?
hearsal and a study of the seor-.
The corni., >sl Uo;; ls Pr. Dvorak's ninety-fifth
r. ambered work aril ls Called bis fifth sym?
phony, though there ls doubtless one work, If
not more, of this .lass among his unpublished
manuscripts. It was written in New-York last
sprl-itr, but revised and probuldy completed !n
its orchestration In the course of the composer's
summer vacation, which he spent In Splllvllle,
Iowa. The titi"- on the manuscript ls In Pohemtan
nu I reads as follows:
7, novecho sveta
(From tte- New World)
Stafani* (K moll,)
pro orkestr
slosll
Antonin Dvorak
ot,as MT,
New (ISM) York.
To musicians familiar with the other Compost
ti SM of Pr. Dvorak two features of the new
Symphony will bs first of nil noticeable. Though
he is anSMSsntoaaMy 'be most Ingenious orchestral
i-olorist among living compos rs, h* SSS Contented
hims--if with the conventional symphonic orchestra
(Barring th- use In one movement of th" English
hore) aid has not attempted to invest his ld**J
with what might be thought to be simply sup Til?
da! Charms His purpose has obviously Leen to
demonstrate that his contention BOBS not need
extrtineous help, however useful nnd Interesting.
For the same reason, too, he has adhered more
closely tn the established forms than in his oth'-r
orchestral works. In some of his other eompost
lions, which huve a Bohemian cast, he Introduced
formal elements drawn from Czechish music, but
Bot here, He has depended upon the melodic Ideas
*nd the spirit of the work to disclose its national
Character. So far us that subtle and elusive thing
Imagination. The movement ls full of melodie*
ot varying sentiments, though ihe tri i lion

There is a striking episode In the middle of th*
movement, constructed ont of n little staccato
meludv. announcid by thc obos and tah-a up by
<o
called mood, spirit, sentiment, feeling and 60 forth
ls concerned, much must of course be left to the
discernment of the hearer. That ls largely sub?
jective, and must be created for each Individual
by the music which, if lt had its origin 'n the
feelings of the composer, will create analogous
feelings in him who hears it. We can only point
out some of the means which the composer em?
ploys to that end. There Is a long, beautiful und
impressive Introduction to the first movement
which we pass by with this mention; lt launches
os into the first allegro, which begins as sug?
gested in the first musical Illustration.

Attention has already been called to the fact thai
Pr. Dvorak bus been successful in imbuing his
symphony with ii spirit of unity. This is hugely
due to the sklil which he has In preserving a rela?
tionship, sometimes ext'mal and formal, sometimes
spiritual, between nis melodies lie has abm In thia
wmk made use of the device of reminiscence. In
the Lerghetto as weil aa tb* Scherzo the principal
subject of the first movement makes its appearance.
In th* Cods of the Bebano it takes tba form shown

lu tho last movement there ls practically a re
rapltnlatlon of the principal material of the preced?
ing three, though not In the fr.uik and slmpl.- man?
ner followed by Beethoven in his Bfth and ninth
rmphonle*. The melodies are drawn on f,,r their
rhythmical and mtervallle contents, and these ar*
employed with great enlistment of learning and
Inventiveness to help along the development of the
work. Pr Dvorak'* lorie, alway* strongly suggest?

THE COMMITTEE REPORT.
Previous to the election the members had a dis?
cussion over tho preliminary report of the Com
mlttea on l'ollttcal lteform. This report waa aa fol
I lows:
"At ft meeting of this club, held on the ninth
dav of Nuvemher last, Mr. diaries Stewart Smith
presented to the club the following resolution,
wi ich wm unanimously adopted:
?? 'Resolved, That the Commute* on Political Re.

of th** club whether or not. in the Judgment of
the committee, it i< desirable for this dub to lead |
any movement br which an attempt shall be m?,ie
to unite ail good men without reference to politi?
cal affiliation* in the one issue of ?foo,| government
fr this cltv, und, if so, to formulate a plan there
, for.'
"The committee had under consideration previous
to tho adoption of the resolution the pinera! sub?
ject of reform In th" parties In this city, but no
n p-Tt hud been formulated. Bine* the reference
was mel- lt his given much time to the consldera
: tlon of thc special topics presented by the raao
! lutlon. but, taking Into view the plans for reform
I now in proceaa of development tn the two par*
I Mes, and the public discussion going on In regard
to the same, as well ns touching the formation
of a Munici|>*i Reform party, the committee ls
dlsp iM I to feel that n detail' 1 *spre*Slon of views
may w-ll b* deferred for a rhort time, Hnd lt there
f,,re .rn est* IbSt the club aCCOfd further time

MEASURES it rc im MEN heh.
"Vour committee are agreed that there should be
co-operation and union of all who desire good
govi rnm-.-iit to rescue the city from those now In
d of lt. There are certain questions that
require Immediate and prompt action on behalf
of all gool cltlz-r-s as preliminary and desirable
?.?ondltluns for securing a reform city government.
' !. A change should be made In the present
ballot law, BO as to have a just and fair blanket
ballot
"I If separate municipal elections are not se
? ir, 1, the law should nrovl.le for voting, without
trouble to the elect'*, a city ticket, unembarrassed
bv a National or State ticket.
"3. Provision* should be mad.* to exclude f'on
k-r- nmtn, state senators and Assemblymen from

"t Th.- ii "ii-purtlsan character of the Police
Board should bi mada mandatory by law.
The n m-partlsan character of the Hoards of
Fl-,-Mon Inspectors should be established, s) as to
? ire honest registration ard a fair count, and

and they would sec to lt thal tbe character of the
men Hoy vote for ls such as to Justify their eonfl

a- the punishment of th-:-.- old and habitual
offender* ? ? ' th* purity of the ballot box.

New-Tort City th- willingness and desire of this
' club to unit* with citlsens ol sll shades o( political
belief it: securing certain reforms In th* manage?
ment "f our municipal affaire. To such purpose* tbs
I'nloi In the future, as in the
. Its unfailing supp' rt.
"While asking for tb* Indorsement by the club
of tin- fong dng propositions your committee ul*,)
r tim for the further consideration of the
November resolution, snd recommends the adop?
tion of th.- following resolutions:
"Resolved, That the I'nlon League duh ratifies
and adopt* tb* foregoing preliminary report of
ll- 'remittee.
"Resolved, That the Committee on political Re?
form i ? authorized and directed to repres-nt this
club In all movements, either In th.- Constitutional
i- rentlon or the Legislature of tbs state, to
promote the foregoing reforms in the laws.
?Kc-, iv. i. That time for th" pirti].-r consideration
of the November resolution be extended to tb*
committee, with power ti report on th* sams ut

H. St. Jd.n Roora. Jefferson Clark, Logan C. Mur?
ray Emerson Foote, Charles P, <'iirk. Henry \v.

The report was read by E. B, Htndsdale, who
**ked for Ito adoption, charles stewart Smith
i an a substitute to thc resolutions contained
in i: ?? rep irt the following:
i. lived, That this club, while reaffirming its
life-long devotli n to Hu- principles and traditions
of the Republican parti on state and National la*
la of the opinion thal th* government of thin
:.o nd i.rgantsed upon business principles
i n 1 entirely Independent of party lines and that all
good CltUHIS should be invited to work together
t,. this end."
MR. SMITH'S AMENDMENT GOES OVER,
several points of order were raised against this
r.lotion, and objection wss made to tts conatdsrs
ti,m at that tune on th* ground that it committed
the club to a policy that Its member* nu a whole
wet-.- not yet ready to ? ? ne definite plan ol
i a '; ,| -mended before tho rum should commit
i?- if. Tin- point tinaiiy was mads that the resolu?
tion Introduced by Mr. Smith wis new matter, and
ir twenty-five members of the c'.ub objected to Its
consideration at tint meeting it must ??o over until
cl meeting. The necessary twenty-five object
ora were obtained, and deners] li rac* Porter, the
president of th* club, decided that tn* resolution
? :: 1 contain new matter and that lt cam* within the
rule.
Mr. smith did not think this decision waa a
proper one. and he declared thal there was a
lan;" majority of th* members present who would
support the resolution If lt wes put to s vote Th*
resolution was referred, however, to the Com?
mittee on Political lteform. After Commodore Van
Santvoord had secured the adoption of an amend?
ment to th" preliminary report, requiring the com?
mittee to report further at the neat reg lat meeting,
tlc report was adopted with jut * dissenting vole
Th ? next meeting of the dui, will b* held on the
second Thursday In January, when th* new officer*
will bo elected and the Committee on Political Re?
form will present an addltlondsl report p girding
