The band appeared with thirty-two
men, and played the descriptive piece
and the Bohemian girl selection very
well, so 1t was remarked that the band
had made marked Improvement siuco
last season, and that the coming con-
certs on the plaza this summer might
be looked forward to with pleasurable
anticipation. However, in the first
number, the Semiramide overture,
nervousness on the part of several of
the American mem Oer5 of the band
and the glare from the footlights re-
suited in an unfortunate treatme1t of
the beautiful horn quartet; al d mo e.
over there was a ragged starr from the
fact that some of the musicians expect
ed to begin on the second beat of the
conductors baton instead of on the
first. But as soOn as the first double
forte OF the overture was struck, the
band settled down to business and kept
IN trim the remainder of the time.
FOotlights are d nuisance at band
concert. They blinj the eyes SO that
the motions of the conductor are often
Intellectually seen, and they are very
trying on the eyes where man facing
them has auy score that he has to scan
closely. Footligbts are never used up
