a barefooted boy, with no knowledge Of
music, he played, as nature taught him,
on the streets of his native city. While
he was still a child he attracted the at
tention of Mantello, the leader of the
Neapolitan Marine band, an organization
which is to Italy what the Boston SYM
phony is to the United States. At the
age of twelve years Creatore was SOLO
list in this superb band, and while he re-
manned with Mantello he educated him
self in the musicaof the-beSt masters and
as well in the literature of his country.
Creatore came to the United States at
the instance of Minoliti, leader of the
Italian Marine band, and in the time he
has been in this country has placed him.
self at the head of his own band, and
has won wide fame both as a leader and
as composer. BY musical critics who
have heard all of the famous bands, Gre
atore's programmes are said to suTpass,
both in selection and execution, those of
the Banda Rossa and of Sousa. Crea-
torres programmes are adapted to please
all tastes. The range Of his selection is
said to be so admirable that both those
who delight in classical music and those
who love melody, find that which pleases
them.
With the band are two soloists whose
numbers add much to the attractiveness

The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1901-12-22


week a series of six concerts will be
given in st. Paul by the Royal Italian
band. The first four concerts will be
given at the Peoples church on Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday evenings, with
a matinee Saturday afternoon. On Sun
day, Dec. 90, there will be afternoon and
evening concerts at the Metropolitan
Opera house.
The band while it, has never before
been heard in st. Paul, is known in the
East as one of the finest musical organ
ization in the United States. 1t COM
prises on it's roster fifty musicians, many
of them solosts of note. It owes its
existence and its fame to Giuseppe Crea-
tore, the leader. Like Sousa, he is a
man of many mannerisms, and his his
tory is as picturesque as his personality.
Born in Naples, Creatore began life
with nothing but a passionate love for
music and the education of gamin. AS

XMASCHURCH MUSIC
LOCAL, CHoIRS ARE MAKING GREAT
PREPARATIONS FOR HoLI-
DAY SEASON
MUSICAL EVENTS OF THE WEEK
Shawe-JOhnson, TeIIey and Bergh
RecitaIs All of n High Order OF
Merit-Some Christmas
Programmes.

Preparations for Christmas church
music have absorbed the attention Oh
local musicians during the past week.
The Catholic and Episcopal churches have
special Christmas day services, but most
of the other churches will nave tneir
Christmas services Sunday. The musical
part of these services is elaborate and
beautiful and many who never THINK
of attending a church service on any OF
the other fifty-one Sundays in the year
make it a point to go the Sunday pre-
ceding Christmas or on Christmas day
itself. D. The singing Of the Christmas
anthems and the Christmas carols may
not awaken any deep religious feeling
in the breasts Of the sceptical, but at
least it strengthens the Christmas spirit
which at this season is abroad in the
land--the. spirit that is so well expressed
in the beautiful old Christmas WORDS,
|'Peace on earth, good will to men,
The Shawe-Johnson recital Of Wednes-
day night, the Telley recital of Thurs
day night and the Bergh recital of Fri
day night We're the three important
musical events of the week. Each one
was possessor of some special excellence:
Mr. Shawe'S singing every Wednesday
evening for the past three weeks has de-
lighted a fashionable little coterle at the
Aberdeen This coterle has found
spice of novelty in the unique and ar
tistic entertainments that Mr.. Shave
and Mr.. Johnson are giving.
Little Miss Telley's debut was an aus
pfcious one and she was easily able to
convince her good-sized audience that she
is not one of those unpleasant forced
products" that so often aff1ict the con-
cert stage, but a talented little student
whose violin playing reveals unusual
promise. ai D4&
ito1- ne a ri x
rather small class of musicians, but
that small class is to be congratulated
on the niceness OF it's tastes. Both
Mr.. Bergh and his sister are mus clans
in the best sense of the word. The three
of his composition sthat Mr.. Bergh play
ed Friday night showed that the violin
list not only interprets music satisfac-
torily, but thinks music logically.
Local musicians have been bestirring
themselves lately to bring out-of-town
artists to the city. Through the efforts
of Prof c. G.. Titcomb, Josef Hoffman,
the pianist, and Bailey, the blind must
-cianj have been secured; Harry george is
arranging for the appearance of two 9TH
-er artists and now it is whispered that
ST. Paul is to hear Kubelik, the Hun
garian violinist, whose playing has ex-
cited even blase New Workers.
No definite arrangements have been
made for Kubelik's appearance in st.
Paul, but it is understood that a man
prominent in local musical circles is en-
deavoring to arrange for his appearance.
Mr. R. K. Armstrong is arranging for
the appearance of Harold Bower.

SUGGESTIONS.

If congress- wisdom would suffice
Whose Sidewalk is surcharged with ice,
Who will not shovel off the snow;
Likewise the man who at the play,
When someone sings favorite air,
Keeps time and brings you some disma!
With rhythmic kicks against your chair
Likewise the weird econ omist, ~
Who goes into a crowded car,
Still clutching tightly, In his fist
A smelly, smoldering cigar
Could congress with these matters deal.
Such chords of gratitude 'twould strike,
That we'd forgive a lack of zeal
In tariffs, treaties and the like.

We're not surprised, for it was il the at

MANY CHANGES OF CONDITIONS.
In the morning it was cloudy: then the
sun came out. sut soon retired, and it
began to mist-a mist which met the
under side of an umbrella just as much
as it did the outside. During the after
noon things got dark. and a4Scommon.
ordinary rain fell for about three hours.

gather the wind. which drove them again
over the city. bringing. a driving storm,
flooding the pavements, turning wrong

all parts of the country show that the

reported.
