I. M. hart in der Antwort auf Güte u. Mitleid. 1 Frauenburleske, auch ‒ Roheit.

K.-V. 2 bringt Mozart ’s Violinkonzert A-dur (Frl. Annie de Jong, schöne Erscheinung, auch entsprechender Vortrag) u. Berlioz ’ Symph. Phant. Letztere mit Frau Deutsch vorher gründlichst durchgearbeitet. ( Haydn Symph. Bdur zu rasch u. ausdruckslos vorgetragen)

Irene Mayerhofer severe in her reply to kindness and compassion. 1 Feminine burlesque, even rudeness.

The Concert Union 2 presents Mozart's Violin Concerto in A major (Miss Annie de Jong, beautiful appearance, with performance to match), and Berlioz's Symphonie fantastique . The latter work gone through most thoroughly in advance with Mrs. Deutsch. (Haydn Symphony in Bę major performed too fast and expressionlessly.
