“This organization has made an excellent choice in electing Dr. Doremus for its president. The result has been that the orchestra for each of the five concerts will be increased to one hundred performers; that the prince of conductors, Carl Bergmann, will be retained for the season, and that the rehearsals will be something different from the farcical arrangements they were last season. Cliqueism and beggardly economy are also, we understand, to be thrown overboard, and the society will endeavor to keep up its initial character—the leading musical body in America.”  Announces program for the season.
