NAVY ORCHESTRA PLAYS
AND WE DESIRE MORE

Washington talks 30 much about
having a Symphony Orchestra, en-.
tirely overlooking the big educa-
tional value of the three service"
symphony orchestras that give reg
ular concerts here all winter, pre-
senting the best type Of music in
an entirely efficient way.
Last evening the winter orchestra.
Of the U. s. Navy Band, gave its
symphony" program at the Marine
Barracks. These concerts always
attract a capacity audience to the
quite large auditorium, SO more is
going on" in music here than the
regular concert patron realizes.
Bandmaster Charles Benter, as
conductor of orchestra, plays with
spirit and appreciation. The bands
men are now chosen for their abil,
ity to play two instruments, and the
Navy Band Orchestra has fine
body Of string players, with of
course excellence in the brass and
woodward sections.
1.-THE New World Symphony" of
Dvorak was the central work around
which an interesting program was
built. ''Finlandia" Of Sibelius, the
tone-poem Of another land, served
to contrast the definite types of
music as they sounded on the ears
Of two widely diverse composers.
Dvorak came to this country and
was fascinated by the material in
music offered by the negro folk
songs, by Indian themes He also
put into music his response to the
immensities Of our vast land, with
nobility Of music that we instinc,
lively feel to represent tall noun
tains, as stalwart as Edward Mac.
Doweu gives in his truly American
music.
We view other lands through the
pictures on Lecturer Newman's
screen. With just little prepare.
ton and experience, we may travel
and deeply understand other lands,
by the very national music that has
been written for the symphony.
Why cannot we have a series of
popular priced symphony concerts
very reasonable, and for some
definite civic benefit-played by the
three ,orchestras located by Uncle
Sam here in the National Capital?
These orchestras are supported by
the Government. They could bene.
