The privileges of musical New Yorkers are many, and the visits of the Philadelphia Orchestra with Leopold Stokowski as conductor are stimulating additions to the, winter's feast. The execution and spirit at the last performance were brilliant. The Brahms symphony, Number 3, which opened the programme, was finely played with singing rhythm and beautiful tone, which found its leadership in the violins, and with great clarity of phrasing and structure, as satisfying as the balanced pattern of an old garden.
