VTaHE male quartet, FThe Strat.
fords," which appeared at the
= Grand oper house last evening,
opening the Students Lyceum Course
for this season, proved themselves more
than successful as musicians and enter
tainers. The great variety of numbers
included in their program providing a
selection to please every taste and left
little to be desired.
The quertet work was especially good,
the voices blending in an exceptionally
pleasing manner. The solo numbers
were also of rare quality and were well
received. The introduction of brass
quartet, of saxaphones, trombone and
French horn, added much to the pro;
gram.
The encores were all short and vi
vaciously given and did mucn to keep
the audience interested and free from
that feeling of weariness that some
times results towards the last of less
lively program.
