Schubert completed his Sixth Symphony in February 1818, shortly after his twenty-first birthday. It is sometimes called his Little Symphony in C to distinguish it from No. 9, the Great C major written in 1828, the last year of his life. No. 6, in which a Scherzo appears in a Schubert symphony for the first time, is a gay and attractive work, revealing the influence of Rossini.

With its unfailing melodiousness, its clarity of texture, and the opportunity it offers for brilliance of execution, Saint-Saens' Violin Concerto in B minor is among the most acceptable works of a composer whose reputation has suffered some diminishment in recent years. It is dedicated to Sarasate, who was the first to play it in Paris in 1881. More highly spiced harmonies, suggesting the brightness of the Spanish scene, occur in Ravel's 'Alborada del Gracioso' ('Morning Song of the Jester'), originally written as a piano piece - one of a set of Miroirs - and afterwards arranged for orchestra.

7—' The Crawfords leave for London'
Cast in order of speaking:
Produced by Mary Hope Allen
Fanny receives a letter from her brother William, announcing his arrival in England, and Sir Thomas invites him to Mansfield Park. The brother and sister meet joyfully after seven years' separation, and Sir Thomas is delighted with his nephew. Greatly to the annoyance of Mrs. Norris, he determines to give a ball for Fanny and William. Despite her nervousness, Fanny has a great success and rises early next morning to see William and Henry leave for London and Edmund for Peterborough, where he is to be ordained.
Henry persuades Admiral Crawford to use his influence on William's behalf, and brings Fanny the news that her brother is to be promoted. Fanny's joyful gratitude encourages him to declare his love for her, but she rejects him with some distress. Sir Thomas is shocked by his niece's attitude and chides her severely; but he is encouraged by Henry's determination to persevere.
