Civic Association Opens New Season; ·Hold Examinations Comment in the Civic Music Bulteof October 10 announces the opening of a new season for the Civic Orchestra of Chicago, at least to the extent of holding examinations for membership. "So great was the success of the reorganized orchestra I a s t season," reads the Bulletin notice, "that ;ts continuance was a foregone conclusion. That continuance was brought about as the result of the devotion of Frederick Stock, director of the Chicago Symphony orchestra and of the Civic orchestra, and of Eric DeLamarter, who assists him in both organizations, and by the assistance of the Orchestral Association of Chicago. "Last season the reconstitution of the Civic Orchestra was concerned, not only with a raising of the standard in its membership, but with the creation of classes in Orchestral Repertory. Sight-reading, Chamber music, etc. The policies of last season will be ·carried forward in this, the instruction, which is given by the principals of the various · departments of the Chicago Symphony orchestra, being given to the members entirely free of charge. That the work of the Civic orchestra has had and is having a marked influence for good in our national music is evident from the fact that the training which, ·thanks to the \'ision of Mr. Stock, has been given to so many of our young musicians has resulted in the Americanization of orchestras in the United States. Even· season members of the Civic Orches.tra who have shown ability during their year's work are drafted into the principal symphonic organizations of this country. t~n - I Chamber Musicales to ()pen Season on Nov. 4 The North Shore Chamber Music association for the season 1928-29 has announced its inaugural program to be given at the Kenilworth Assembly hall Sunday afternoon, November 4, at 4 o'clock The program will be given by the Muenser trio, Hans Muens'.!r, violin: Hans Koelbet, violincetlo, and Rudolph Wagner, piano; and is as fotlows: Trio in F Major . . . . . . ....
