made up Of forty musicians, each one
an artist. This band has played N
all the leading cities of the country,
and last week closed an engagement
at Electric park, Kansas city, one of
the leading recreation resorts of the
world. That, in itself. is a high rec
ommendation for Philippians band, as
Electric park has only the best in
everything.
Philippians band not only renders
grand opera music with great power,
j. plays ragtime too. In fact it plays all
ragtime, too In fact, 1t plays all
kinds Of music, but no matter what
the kind the music is the best, be
cause all of Philippians band mem
bers are talented musicians and what
! they play can't be surpassed any
i where.
Philippini is one of the greatest
conductors Of modern times. He
does not surfeit his audiences with
classical offerings; still he presents
them in number sufficient to leave
lasting evidence of his ability. The
lighter hits or the popular selec.
tions, are given liberal showing. and
"ragtime" bobs up every few num-
bers.
Nine Lehman, soloist who is also
manager of the great band, is a splen.
did singer. Her voice is sweet and
she takes the highest notes without
the least effort. Singing in the open
ar Is always hard but her voice car
ries without difficulty and her tones
are clear and strong.
