Tlit second oentng concert of the Boston Hjmphony Orchestra was given l.t night at Carnegie 1UII. Dr. Karl Muck illscloserl himself In a new Hunt l . programme maker by Inviting his audience to listen to only two compo sitions, namely.

Hut there la mu-h new matter to be considered, ami most of It call for more profound ex tmlnatlon than this fluent and aoncllke work. An for Mniaky-Knrsakov's suite, we have Indeed not lacked performances of that. We have heard Its measures at the simc time as wo have observed the extraordinary doings of Adolf Holm and Flora Jlevalles together with numerous other members of tho celebrated Ballet Russe. These doings have occasioned much debate. The composer undertook to Illustrate certain Incidents In the Thousand and One (Nights, while the billet dealt with very different matters. Hente the Jarring of the sects. Last evening, at any rate, there was lia call for dispute. The music was heard In all Its original beauty, p1aed by an orchestra which brought out Its rotors In all their brilliancy. Anton Wltek, concertmaster of the organisa tion, performed the solos excellently. The audience retmcd lo be entirely eltaitd. MME.

As a whole, however, her performance was delightful In spirit and one giving enjoyment. In her rendering of several compo sitions by Chopin Mine. Schnltxer did perhaps her finest work. These com positions wero the scherzo, opus 10, No. I: the nocturne, opus IT. No. 1, nnd also the etude, opus 2.". No. II. The nocturne was played with a musical lone and beautiful coloring throughout, and so was the "Winter Wind" elude, which, with the added features of a splendidly marked rhythm and a superb, and dash ing style, so aroused the audience that it had to be repeated. The first piece In the group, the scherzo, was also com- mendably played, though not w slth qulto I hii i ne nnisii desirable. Other numbers In Die-second group were Schubert's "JIark. Hark, the lark." and 'The Krlklng." as transcribed by MszL Fine sentiment and feeling, as well as technical elegance, marked the delivery, of these pieces. After 'The Krlklng" Mme. Schnltzer added to the printed list Mendelssohn's "Splnnerlled." The final group contained two well con trasted selections. Schumann's "Des Abends" and tho "Don Juan" fantasia" of I.lszt. "PARSIFAL'! HEARD. Wagner's Last Maalc Drama lias First Performance of Season. With Thanksgiving Day comes the first performance of "Parsifal" at the Metro politan Opera House. This Is now the custom, and the sacred festival drama was performed yesterday in the presence of a large audience. The cast showed changes only In the flower girls' depart ment. The principal "girls" were Kdlth Mason, Mabel Harrison, Marie Sundellus, lonora Sparkes, Vera funis and Flora Perlnl. They sang well, as did the re mainder of the company of KUngor't as sistants. Mme. Kurt's Kundry ts familiar to opern goers as an earnest and painstak ing Impersonation which might be bene fited by more beauty of song nnd pos sibly by a more temperamental action. Herman Weil's Amforta Invites consid eration, but doea not arouse deep sym pathy. Mr. Sembach continues lo be a good I'nntfal and Mr. Braun orates solemnly as the ancient historian. Our nemanr. Mr. Bodanzky conducted the per formance. In the evening the opera was "I.a Boheme," with Mme. Alda as Ifimi.Mlsa Mason as Uuittta. Mr, Martlneltl as Itu dolo and Mr. Scotti as ilaretlto. Mr. Pajil conducted. There was a large audience. THE BOSHKO SISTERS. Hear la Concert of Plana and Violin Maalc. Victoria Boshko, pianist, and Natalie Boshko. violinist, gave a Joint recital last evening In Aeolian Hall. The two players are local musicians and Bisters. They performed together Brahms s sonata In O. The pianist played Jee thoven's sonata "Appasslonata" and a croun of shorter numbers. The violinist was heard In one movement or i.aio "Symphonic Kepagnole" and In Wle nlawskl'M "Faust Fantasy." The two young artists In the Jrahms sonata showed a good regard for dy namics nnd they played with much gen uine taste In ensemble. In solo playing the violinist's performance was marked chiefly by a lovely tone, good technic and a charm rather than brilliance of style. The pianist played with a less desirable finesse but with a tone generally musi cal, good" technical accomplishment and some feeling.
