The Georgetown Orchestra in Vigor-
GUS Life.
IT'S LONG And HONORABLE CAREER
Those Who Have Held the Baton
Over It.
COMPOSERS AND SOLOISTS

In no city in this country is there such a
unique organization as that known as the
Georgetown Orchestra. 1t Is composed of
ladies and gentlemen who are skilled per-
formers upon every instrument contained
in an orchestra, and who yet play together
Tor the love of music and for the benefit
they may derive from ensemble playing.
When a hundred performers can be got to
rehearse and give concerts without any
compensation other than the satisfaction
of doing good work it is a sure proof that
they are devoted to their art. Many of the
players are amateurs, who have no thought
of ever making money out of their musical
ability. and some of them are professional
musicians, but come to this orchestra for
the love of association and the enjoyment
of the work. This orchestra has had a life
of seventeen years, and has appeared in
ffty-one concerts and public rehearsals.
Its origin WAS peculiar. At first only
quartet of players. consisting of Harry
ID. Cooke, I. Fl. Gibbs, c. S. Helm and DR..
r. ). Barbarin, all of whom loved music
for the sake of the art, and neither of
whom ever received a dollar for playing,
met at Mr.. Cookies house in Georgetown
to practice together their only object being
the enjoyment that such meetings would
give them in playing the works of the
great composers. This was in 1877. Each
of the four gentlemen had friends who
were good musicians. and who were iu-
Vited to participate in the practice, and SO
the number gradually increased until a
good-Sized orchestra was the result. The
parlOrs of the Cooke mansion. although
quite spacious, were found too small to ac-
commodate the orchestra. and the hall of
the Curtis School building was secured in
which to hold the rehearsals, and the
Georgetown Amateur Orchestra became a
fixed institution. The first concert was
given February 13. 1882 at the Curtis
School building, under the direction of
Robert G Bernays, and the praises it
. cetYed for its excellent work stimula ted
