EDITOR ARGUs.-Inasmuch as a
number of my friends have ex-
pressed feeling Of disappoint-
ment and dissatisfaction, caused 10y
my not playing the solo at the band
concert, as per programme, and as
many reasons have been given for
the failure, none Of which are cor
rect, ! would say that several DAYS
before the concert, | found that I
could not play. This was owing in
measure to our work in the band
room, hut more from an indisposi.
tion from which hoped to recover
before the time set for the concert,
but did not. II is well known by
musicians generally, that a person
can not play "feeling out of sorts"
This is experienced in q greater
degree by cornet players than by
any other class of musicians. The
ability to play the cornet accepta-
bly, is due wholly to the power of
controlling completely tho muscles
and nerves Of the lips. This pow
er is easily lost, and often unac-
conntably, more especially with
amateurs, bnt often with profess
siona's. As proof that I should
not have attempted to play any,
Thing that night, and especially
solo, would say that l have been
sick since that time, and confined
o the house the two days follow
ng. / make this explanation for
he benefit of the disappointed
mes, and hope it will be accepted
instead of any of the attempted
explanations by those who do not
know the facts.
