| If ever John Philip Sousa was fairly loaded
| down with new and brilliant things to present
the country on a concert tour. 1t is now. His
| library of music has expended SO rapidly and
| so richly that it is not now question of
what shall be put on the program, but
what shall be left off. A dozen programs,
| every one a cargo OF new and select things,
were prepared for the present tour, and there
| is really little choice between them OF
course an Indifferent program faultloss!y
given Is far more satisfactory to listen to than
a pretentious program indiferently presented,
but Sousa is master of program making and
of playing, SO that he proceeds. III his own
| nimitable way from two most essential
points of vantage. Everybody knows with
what spirit and exquisite fidelity Sousa directs
his concerts and with what exactitude the
most unpretentious, encore conceit is de-
livered. 1t is the Sousa way.
The famous director and his band Will be

The Philharmonic club has brought to. a
successful Issue its negotiations with Mr..
Baernstein and he will sing the bass solos
at the coming Proclamation of the Creation y
Mr.. Van York, who was one of the charter
members of the club, and who has made a
name for himself as musician and artist,
will return to his former home and sing the
tenor solo. His notices this year have been
very enthusiastic and he is accounted a strong
drawing card Throughout the east.
Miss Electa Clifford has won fame in just
such music as the Creation She is pos
SCISSOR of a beautiful high voice, extended in
range and pure in tone. Her singing is high
ly finished and attractive as successes with
the leading orchestras of the country have
proven. 1t is safe to- say that Minneapolis
will hear the Creation" sung as well as il
could be given anywhere in the country, as
special work is being done upon both the
choral and orchestral parts.
