The Camerata RCO was founded by members of Amsterdam\u2019s Royal Concertgebouw. On Sunday, Camerata RCO played Hummel and Schubert. For the Frick concerts, it was a large ensemble: eight musicians playing violins, a viola, a clarinet, a bassoon, a horn and a bassoon. Franz Schubert\u2019s Octet in F Major, D. 803 (1824) is euphoric. In addition to the mailed tickets, the Frick includes an art appreciation paragraph connecting the concert\u2019s musical selections with the Collection\u2019s art. This week Thomas Gainsborough\u2019s Mall at St. James\u2019s Park (1783) is described as jubilant. The fashionable figures glide through St. James\u2019s Park. The park resembles an enchanted forest. Under the majestic trees, ladies and their dogs glide along broad paths. Frick bought Mall at St. James\u2019s Park in 1916 for about $300,000.<\/p>\n

Monday night supper in a computer generated Japanese restaurant on First Ave. was followed by a rush to the Jefferson Market Library on Sixth to hear Francis Morrone, the architectural historian, talk to a packed house about NYC\u2019s early book publishers. Names like Brentano, Noble, Scribner\u2019s brought back the vibrant book trade as the companies moved uptown, merged, went bankrupt. Many in the room sighed at the thought of Scribner\u2019s Beaux Arts Building on Fifth Avenue. Now it\u2019s an athletic apparel store.<\/p>\n
