The Symphony Concert.

In Saint-Saens concerto for violoncello and orchestra (A minor op. 33), Mr. Rudolf Krasselt scored a decided triumph as soloist in the third Symphony concert last night at Sanders Theatre. His performance was splendidly rendered, and the softer and less brilliant passages were played with delicacy of phrasing and graceful feeling. It was to be regretted that the composition did not permit him to show more than his brilliant technique. The other numbers were: Overture to "Sankuntala," by Goldmark; Symphonic poem, "Vysenrad," by Smetana; and Symphony in D major, No. 2, op, 36 by Beethoven.
