The Symphony Concert.

The Symphony Concert last night was perhaps the best concert that has been given in Cambridge this season. The soloist, Madame Schumann-Heink, was in perfect voice, and received many recalls. Her first number, the Aria from Mozart's "Titus," showed the wonderful range of her voice, and its superb dramatic power. But the richness and tenderness of her voice appeared best in Schubert's song, "Die Allmacht," her second number.

Of the rest of the programme, the Andante movement of the Symphony--Haydn in D major -- contained some beautiful passages for the strings, with flute obligato, that were perfectly rendered. Chausson's Symphonic Poem, "Viviane," brought out some very pleasing effects with the brass and a harp. The composer has caught the weird spirit of Vivian's enchantment of Merlin, but the one thing lacking was the element of coquetry that comes out so strongly in the literary conceptions of Vivian.
