u,
THE AFTERNOON.
The Elgin military band opened its
programme in the afternoon by the
Coronation March from Ellenberg,
which stirred up the enthusiasm of the
audience and drew the sight-seeIs away
from the exhibits aud pictures to the
chairs in the rotunda and the bal
cony. This was followed by the grand
overture to the LIE Macon of Auber, The
third number was beautiful waltz, the
Gypsy Serenade by Nehl, which was rem
dered with a superb stacoato that was
delightful. "Reminiscences of Meyerbeer
by A. f. Godfrey, containing many
lovely strains, was well received. After
an intermission of thirty minutes, Pro-
fessor Hecker waved his baton and the
orchestra took up the renowned overture
to Tancredi. This was followed by the
hunting scene of Bucalossi. This tone
picture represents the calm and peaceful
breaking of the morn. The birds are
heard on every side with their notes in
praise of nature, and the cock swakens
the rural villagers from their sweet sleep
of health. The huntsmen prepare for
the chase and the notes of the different
clans on the way to the place of meeting.
The baying of the dogs, impatient for the
chase, grows louder until the sounding of
the merry blast for the start. Then
there is a shout from the hdntsmen and
the chase commences. The road is alive
with horsemen shouting and barking
dogs. Then comes the full cry, the
death and the return home. This is
quite a favorite and was inserted in the
programme by spepial request. 1t never
tails to catch an encore. The selection
of popular melodies also pleased the
audience and brought out another en-
core. This was followed by the Cyardas
of Hasselman and TavanteIla by Juleen.
A bright galop entitled Nellie, an orig
NAL composition of the conductor, Pro-
fessor Hecker, closed the concert.
EVENING MUSIC
The evening concert was grand, and
the audience showed its thorough appre
citation of excellent music by the gener-
Gus applause which was showered upon
the orchestra. A chief feature of the
performance was a comioal band contest,
representing the tribulations of a band
master with a number of would
be soloists who wish to be the
soloists of a concert band about to
give a series of concerts. The piccolo,
the comets, the clarionets, the euphon-
ium, the baritone, the bassoons and the
man of the big bass drum all played |
their solos and were numerically guyed |
by the rest of the band, to the great |
amusement of the audience. By |
special request, upon the conclusion of |
the programme; the Hunting scene was
repeated. AS usual, it carried by large |
majority and the bright little scherzando |
by Professor Heeker was played for the |
encore.
