Superb Musical Organi

IT PROMISES TO GIVE VALDOSTA
THE GREATEST MUSICAL
TREAT THE PEOPLE OF THE
CITY HAVE HAD.
Among the great symphony or
chestras In the United States, none
lias equaled in development or sur
passed the lofty artistic purpose of
the Russian Symphony Orchestra of
New York. During the nine years
of its existence, thl© sterling organ
ization has been governed by the
singl© purpose that makes for note
worthy achievement In the finest
forms of music. That It has won
its front-rank position through sheer
merit Is now established to the sat-
faction of the most exacting.
To Modest Altschuler, its brilliant
and gifted conductor, more than any
other one man, Is due the credit for
the signal success of the Russian
Symphony Orchestra. Nevertheless,
It is not possible to overlook the
part that has been played by.the
members of the organization In lift
ing it to the plans which, i n these
days of orchestral proficiency, Is so
difflult to attain.
Beginning nine years ago, with
the determination to present the
representative works of the Neo-
Russtan composers, Director Alts
chuler and his men have been able
to reach the ideals originally do-
airedr They have moved surely and

for. goap*whe|jj£no body of
iMiHr-
lng to rest content on such laurels.Ip
Mr. Altschuler has gone fearlessly P
Into every school of composition I ■“
known to the modern orchestra,
with a distinction scarcely less nota
ble than has come to him In field
that Is now generally admitted as
belonging wholly to him and the. or
chestra he conducts.
Modest, Altschuler, conductor of
th© Rusrlan Symphony Orchestra of
New York, Is one of the recognized
symphony orchestra leaders of the
world. In the nine years time that
Mr. Altschuler has been In control of
this moet remarkable musical* or
ganization, he has proven himself
not only a wonderful musician but a
man who has a strong sympathy
with the musical desires of the peo
ple. Further than this he has been
able to give his hearers tho music
they desired and at the samo lim<>
he has stimulated an appreclaj

This added to the rich, power

is small wonder that she has arous-

pitch of enthusiasm, and that In the

not tell anything about the accident

how th© hot box was getting on and
