Music lovers awaited with uuch in
teTest the coming OF AmcTs and his
iiussar Band. wEIch gave a concert last
Sunday night In the Columbia Theater
While the representation was small in
terest was nevertheless great. for one
always likes 70 compare visiting organ
izations not only with "home talent. 8"
as the country papers say, but with
other bands which come from afar.
Amers is a young nan-twenty-six
years old, his press agent says-and he
looks it. His personality is exceedingly
pleasing and 90 this he adds a quiet
lignity that comes across the footIights
with no little meaning. He has good
band.
However, the principal characteristic
II Ainers-bis manner of direction-was
lie thing that appealed to the audience.
1t was only another illustration that
some of the vouugeI conductors Of tho
Jay can show some of the older ones
and those who are just now enjoying
greater regulations a thing or two that
might help the more experienced in their
work. II may be that when these same
conductors were young they. too. exer-
cised tho same discretion, and thereby
reached "a point where they could afford
10 do jarring things.
Directs With Greatest Ease.
Amers directs so easily that at times
one almost fOrgets there is a director
IN the stand. He uses his right hand al
most exclusively, only occasionally
bringing his left into play By incon-
spicuous methods this young English
bandmaster obtained the same effects
as the explosive Creatore, who opened
The musical season here several weeks
ago. A little twist Of his arm. and mis-
purpose was realized He did not once
knock over his music rack nor nearly
lump down anybody's throat, yet there
was all the volume. all the speed. and
all the intensity fol which tile Italian
strives so perceptlbly.
Some weeks ago the same attributes
were noted In the II amer OF direction Of
Patrick Conway. leader OF the Ithaca
Band. Mr. Conway is another young
director who IS fass gaining a reputa-
lion because OF his genuine ambition TO
get the best out OF ais men without tho
trills and gymnastics so many older
leaders adopt
While CreatO-e has a fine band. local
music lovers have never ceased to be
distracted by his mannerisms. Even
John Philip SOusa dctracts from the
merits Of his own organization by his
serles Of poses, and when a band leader
comes along who IS willing TO eftace
himself # IS indeed a refreshing spac-
tacle and one which Washiurtou v-iII
