Great treats are promised by the
Minneapolis Symphony orchestra 1T
its two Omaha performances, Fri
day afternoon and evening, May %,
the matinee young peoples con-
cert, at the Auditorium, and in the
evening a fine general program at
the Brandeis theater. Mr.. Henry G.
Cox. who is managing. the concerts,
reports sold-out house for the
matinee, and many music lovers are
making reservations for the even
ing performance. The Minneapolis
orchestra is well known in Omaha
and its personnel contains many so
loists of wide repute. Among them
is Guy Woodland, concert master,
who lived in Omaha during his
youth, and started his violin studies
here. He has made name for him
self among present-day violinis.s,
and he well deserves the coveted po-
sition he now holds with this or.
chestra. His Omaha friends will
'be glad of the opportunity of
again greeting him. There is al
so among the soloists Bruno
Labate, oboist. Labate was for,
merly oboe player with the ia
nous Barrere Ensemble, which
fact, to those who know the
world of music, means that he is
past master of his instrument.
Henry James Williams, a Welsh
man, is the harpist with the orches-
ira. He comes from a long line OF
Welsh harpists, tracing his ancestry
back to some of the wandering min-
strel bards so dear to all Celtic peo-
pie. The winner of three successive
celebrations of the famous Welsh
"Eistedfodd," or musical tourna.
ment, Mr.. Williams has a gold med,
al which carries with it the assut-
ance that he is the best solo harpist
in England, Scotland, and Wales"
Most of his musical education was
gained at the Royal Academy Of
Music at London, and his first Or
chestral experience was as men,-
