THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
MAINE MUSICAL FESTIVAL.
October will be a great month in Maine.
It will be made memorable by the occur-
rence of the greatest musical event that
has taken place in the East for several de-
cades. It is the Maine music festival; and
in the grandeur of its personnel and pro-
portions, it suggests the glorious Jubilee
concerts at Boston, which marked the re-
turn of peace to a long suffering nation and
people, and the echoes of those harmonies
were heard around the world. The Maine
festival will easily be in the same class,
musically and artistically, with the Peace
Jubilee. The Maine festival, or rather
festivals, will be held in two cities—at
Bangor, Oct. 14, 15 and 16, and at Port-
land, Oct. 18, 19 and 20—precisely the same
artists appearing and the same programs
being rendered in each city.
There will be a great chorus of 1,000
voices, selected from the principal cities of
Maine, supported by a grand orchestra of
seventy members, including soloists from
the celebrated Seidl orchestra of New York,
all under the direction of William R. Chap-
man of New York, director-in-chief, and
one of the most celebrated choral conduc-
tors in the country. At the head of the
list of artists is Madame Lillian Nordica,
and the following famous soloists will take
part in these concerts: Lillian Blauvelt,
Gwilym Miles, Grace G. Couch, Evan Wil-
liams, John Fulton, Hans Kronold, Carl E.
Dufft, Heinrich Meyn and Carlos Hassel-
brink. A local charm is given by repre-
sentative Maine soloists, including Ethel
Hyde, Lou Duncan Barney, Blanche Ding-
ley, Herman Kotzschmar, Lillian Carll-
smith, Edith M. Bradford, Mary A.
Kotzschmar, Fred G. Payne, Antonia Sav-
age Sawyer, Grace H. Barnum, Oscar E.
Wasgatt and others.
Five concerts will be given in each city,
three evening and two afternoons, as fol-
lows: First evening, oratorio; second even-
ing, opera; third evening popular music;
first afternoon, lecture, orchestra and so-
loists; second afternoon, Maine composers
and singers.
