The concert on May 24th was remarkable for the appearance of both Saint-Saens and Sarasate. One would have expected such a combination to draw a huge crowd, but such was not the case. When Sarasate gave recitals on his own account they were always crammed, which shows that the public wished to hear one artist, by himself, at the whole concert. There were two novelties by Saint-Saens, his C minor Concerto and his Symphony in A minor, which I asked him to conduct. |
