recognized queen among singers. who Will

who were fortunate enough to hear her

There Is new sousa march, 'Impe-
rial Edward" which was composed last
spring and the title and dedication were
submitted to King Edward through the
customary channels and received the roy
al approval. Mr.. Sousa describes the new
composition as a military march, written
for military bands to play and for soldiers
to march to- Ever since the days Of The
Washington Post" when Sousa II first
brought his three trombones to the front
to impress the melody Of the trio upon
his audience, he has introduced some such
novelty in the performance Of each sue
ceeding march, In Imperial Edward" he
two trumpets reinforced by the snare
drums, to the front in the concluding
strain, and the effect is electrical.
A special copy of the march was pre-
sented to the king through Sir Dighton
Probyn. King Edward acknowledged It's
receipt with thanks to the composer ana
gave orders that it should be played by
the principal bands in England. It Is a
fact that Imperial Edward" was played
by every band at the coronation Of King
| Edward VII.
Imperial Edward will be one Of the
features Of the Sousa concerts at Lyceum
theater next Thursday afternoon and eve
ming, when the programs will be as fol-
lows: r..
