The First Symphony Concert.

In the first Symphony Concert of the season last night Dvorak pieces predominated and made the program unusually interesting. Of the three numbers by this composer, Overture to "Othello," Suite in D major, and "The New World Symphony," the second was conspicuous. It has unexcelled rhythmic movement. The program contained also Mozart's aria, "Deh' Vieni," from "Marriage of Figaro," Massenet's "Air de Griseldis," and Morzkowski's "Pres du Berceau," with Mrs. Methot as soloist. Mrs. Methot's voice, though technically finished and well-rounded is without warmth and her interpretation is colorless.
