ST. PAUL. SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
Concert Company to Come Here May
81 is Favorably Spoken OF.

81 is Favoraby Spoken OF.
Concerning the st. Paul Symphony
orchestra. which will give two concerts
at the Calumet theater May 81, the
Sioux City Journal. of recent date
says:
A black cloud rose over the deserts
horizon. II threw it's life giving mois-
ture on the scorching sands before the
eyes of a weary pilgrim. And the
parched desert seemed to cry out for
more. with the evanescent passage of
the rain. The gift of the cloud only
melted a longing for a flood I'm the
heart of the traveller.
The st. Paul symphony orchestra
was like that cloud. Sioux City has
the name i'm music circles of being q
symphonies waste. But, like the pill
grim, Sioux City wants more. Pack
ingtown is musical, longs for music of
the better class. The crowds that
packed the Auditorium for the first
night concert of the famous orchestra
testified to this fact
Mr.. Rothwell is conductor who
heads a difficult musical machine i'm
the most commendable manner.
Strings, reeds and brasses are under
his constant control, and the result is
a perfect blending of elusive chords
and phrases that give feast to the ear
and memories that long will abide.
While it yet is young as an organiza-
tion, the orchestra takes rank as one of
the best in the country, and i'm many
ways 1t equals the famous Thomas
musical organization of Chicago. With
the enthusiasm and civic support that
comes from the city that gives il its
name there is no doubt that as things
progress II will develop to be the best
in the country-not forgetting the
Thomas organization. If the license on
the use of the superlative is permit
ted.
The orchestra carries in it's capable
company a soloist of more than usual
merit, a Mr.. Thinner, on the first vio-
lin. Mr.. Thinner last night played an
entire act gavotte from "Mignon" and
lit liplil liellS.
Under Mr.. Rothwe's control the
players passed through the sturdy
measures of the 'Tannhauser" over
ture and dallied with the caprcious
moods. and then hung entranclngly
upon the passionate outbursts of Car
men. But the mystifying violins and
the gurgling reeds mingled with the
heavier fear inspiring graduations Of
the night scene from Faust" accen-
tuated the perfect unity, from drums
to harp, that characterizes the inter-
