For many years Elgar has slomâ€" inated this Festival, and expeciaily it has become difficult to invaugime a festival in his native city of Worâ€" cester without him.

Wanted: A a able to milk cows Thé ° unconsciou advertisements is thi Most people, it may be sais, find the absence of applause an atiracâ€" tion. But there is the other side to be considered: if the absence of ap» plause, imposed by the use of a caâ€" thedral ‘as an audiorium, is actracâ€" tive, there is also a certain restricâ€" tion of repertory. ~Not a few works written during the last 50 years are inadmissible to a cathedral" Such works, for instance, as Delius‘ "A Mass of Life"; Stravinsky‘s "Le Eacre du Printemps," and practicalâ€" ly all Strauss‘ symphonic prems, fall into that category. _ Even #0, the available repertory is wile enough, and there is no concer: hall in England where orchestral and choral music sounds so fine as in these cathedrals of the West. The whole festival is on a magniâ€" ficent scale: the finest singess »nâ€" pear as soloists and the entire Lonâ€" don Symphony Orchestra is em i>yâ€" ed. It remains a tradition, bâ€"weve»~, that the conductorâ€"‘nâ€"chie? shali be the organist of the eathedral in which the festival is proceeding, givâ€" ing the place only to composorâ€"conâ€" ductors. One is that sound except One peculiarity of this Festival is that, from beginn‘ngt to end, no sound of applause is heaniâ€"if we except the aingle secular consert which latterly it has been the cusâ€" tom to hold on one evening in a public hall. ‘The fact is, the whoie festival is still conducted as a reâ€" ligious gathering, each performancs opening and closing with prayer. Its form is now fixed. There is an opening service in the ca‘hedral on Sunday afternoon aftendei by eivic officia‘ls _ Monday is deveted to final rehearsals, and Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to perâ€" llov-nu-. mainly of oratorios, in the cathedral each morning, afterâ€" noen and evening. No Three Choirs‘ ’Minl would be complete without at least one new work, frequently a work specially written for the oc« casion. As far back as 1715, the three eathedral choirs held "Music Mestâ€" ings" annually at which they sang glees and madrigals. _ Seven years later these meetings were organized to provide a fund for the benefit of widows and orphans of clergy of the three dioceses. Ever since, inâ€" terrupted only during the War, the festival has cont‘nued, not as an afâ€" fair of cathedral choirs, but of a big choir of mixed voices drawn from the three cities.
