PIERIAN CONCERT TONIGHT

BORODIN'S FIRST SYMPHONY WILL BE FEATURED IN ANNUAL PERFORMANCE.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Pierian Sodality Orchestra, under the leadership of W. N. Hewitt 1G., will give its one hundred and seventh annual concert in Sanders Theatre this evening at 8 o'clock. The program is in some respects a departure from those of previous years, in that it includes neither a composition by a University student nor one entirely new to American audiences. However, Borodin's First Symphony, is at least not very familiar in this vicinity, having been played only twice in Boston.

The purely orchestral music of Handel is not very often heard. The concerto which will be rendered this evening is in five movements--two allegros, a sicilano, a minuet and a gigne. Beethoven's overture to "Coriolanus" and the Hungarian March from Berlioz, Damnation of Faust, are well-known to all concert-goers.

Tickets are on sale at the Co-operative Branch, Symphony Hall and may also be obtained from the manager, W. J. Brown '17 at 37 Russell Annex, at $1.50, $1.00 and 50 cents. The Sodality will be assisted by several members of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

The following is the program:

Borodin--Symphony No. 1 in E-flat major.

Beethoven--Overture to "Coriolanus."

Handel--Concerto Grosso No. 20 in F major for two violins, violincello, and string orchestra.

Berlion--Hungarian March from "The Damnation of Faust."
