Full Orchestra of 80 to Play

Richmond music-lovers generally
have been free to express their delight
in the program to be given in the Coli
scum a week from next Wednesday
night by the Cincinnati Symphony or
chestra.
This concert will open the musical
season here and a brilliant opening, So
cially as well as artistically, is pres

The inclusion of Victor Herbert's
Irish Rhapsody" on the Richmond
program is in line with DR.. Kunwald's
policy this year to read at least one
American composers work on every
program.
Herbert, while not a native Ameri-
can, is regarded as an American COM
poser as all of his maturity has been
passed in this country. While he is
wildly known for his light opera COM
positions he also has wide vogue as a
composer of more substantial works.
His Irish Rhapsody" is said by
those who have heard it, to be one
of the most tuneful works of an Ameri-
can composer. DR.. Kunwald will play
it this week in Cincinnati at the sec
ond pair of concerts.
The entire program to be played
here by the full orchestra of so pieces
will be one that will appeal to per-

the text they illustrate is grossly I'M
true, declares the Kansas City Star.

story in which a man with long whis.
kers got wound up in an electric fan
The illustrator might have ignored the
fan altogether, but he didn't. The only
detail he omitted was the whiskers,
aud the picture of the man with q
smooth face tangled up in the fan was
declared a masterpiece by the artists
family. ~
