Tschechische Erstaufführung der 6. Symphonie durch die Tschechische Philharmonie unter Adolf Zemánek [in Prag?] (*).

Die Meldung in The Sun vom 19.12.1907, dass nach dem Konzert des Boston Symphony Orchestra [9. Symphonie am 7.11.1907] ein an Anton Bruckner gerichtetes lobendes Schreiben an der Carnegie Hall abgegeben wurde, erscheint auch in The Arizona Republican Nr. 244 (Phoenix, Arizona) auf S. 4:

"                    AN UNCLAIMED LETTER.

      A letter addressed to Anton Bruckner, the Austrian composer, who died some years ago, is unclaimed at Carnegie hall. The performance of one of Bruckner's symphonies by the Boston Symphony orchestra was not received with any noticeable signs of delight by the public, while the critics had little to say in its favor. One small voice of praise was heard, however. So a clipping bureau cut out this commendatory criticism and inclosed it in an envelope addressed to Anton Bruckner, Carnegie hall, with a promise to keep him supplied with all similar clippings if he subscribed to the bureau.–New York Sun."
