American Fantasy Victor Herbert
Innes is a strict diciplinarian and
drill master, and although he and his
musicians are the best of friends he
has d standard that each man must live
up to if he hopes to retain his posi-
tiOn in the organization. Musicians
joining the lines band, after having
played as members of other Organiza-
| lions, have been amazed at the class
and character of the programs given.
They have been confronted by musical
9 compositions which are not even at
tempted by some Of the symphony or
chestTas. Innes at once inspires his
musicians with confidence He con-
ducts invariably without a score, and
as he goes through one difficult num-
/ Der after another without so much as
a note to guide his memory, his men
cannot help but feel his authority and
be inspired by his scholarly musical
knowledge.
Innes has blended his band in such
a manner as to secure the total effects
of a great symphony orchestra lines
