This song is a pure lyric, touched with just enough romance to
deepen its significance. _The Sea_ is well written, showing some of the power and healthiness of the true MacDowell open-air spirit. _Through the Meadow_ makes an exquisite vocal piece, thoroughly attractive in its freshness. It is a song of the true nature-poet, breathing the atmosphere of its title in the most delightful and sensitive manner. OPUS 48. SECOND SUITE (INDIAN), FOR FULL ORCHESTRA. _First Performed, January_, 1896, _by the Boston Symphony Orchestra, in New York.
