Aufführung des Adagios der 5. Symphonie unter Alfred Volkland in einem Konzert der Allgemeinen Musikgesellschaft in Basel (*).

The New York Times Nr. 15569 berichtet auf S. 20 in der 7. Spalte vom Bruckner-Denkmal in Wien und münzt einen Ausspruch von Guiglini [vermutlich der Tenor Antonio Guiglini (1825[27?] – 1865)] über Beethovens Hammerklaviersonate auf Bruckners Werke um:
"     A monument to the memory of Anton Bruckner, composer of many symphonies and much else, has been erected in the Stadtpark of Vienna. The imperial city believed in Bruckner, and is faithful to his memory. Dr. Richter believed also, and became the apostle of his works in England. But he preached mainly to unappreciative ears. If any exclaimed, "Bella!" they probably added, like Guiglini, after listening to Beethoven's great sonata in B flat, "ma lunga!" " (**).
