Banda Rosa Concert.

Last evenings concert at the Audito-
rum was a great improvement on that Of
Monday night The Banda Rosa was in
fine form and never played better. The
audience was wildly enthusiastic and Sor-
rentino was obliged to yield to the re-
peated and persistent demands Of the
audience for encores. In fact the pro-
gram was practically doubled in the first
part.
The "Resurrection of Christ which
formed the second part of the program.
was given a much smoother reading than
at the first performance. The lights and
drops were so admirably arranged that
there was nothing to mar the effect Of the
music, and it was listened to with the
most complete and rapt attention. Nine.
Ciaparelli deepened the fine impression
she has made at the previous concerts
and was splendidly received.
In response to urgent requests Sorren-
tino will change his programs for Friday
and Saturday evenings, devoting the for
mer to Wagnerian music, in which the
band Is so famous. The program will
include selections from Tannhauser,
Lohengrin, Parsifal and the 'Valkyries.
