ITALIAN BAND GIVES
EXCELLENT CONCERT
Famous Organization Heard at
the Washington Auditorium
Last Night.

Music lovers who were not at Wash
ington Auditorium last night for the
concert by the National Fascist Militia
Band missed a triumphant perform
ance as Cav. Domenico Valenti led his
organization with a sure hand through
a varied symphonic program, COM
pletely winning his audience.
The band, which was organized in
the little town of Chieti, Italy, as an
after work" project and which later
gained national fame in its home
land, is unique in its basic arrange
ment and fresh and untraditional III
its approach to the works of the mas
ter composers. interpretations by the
group are marked by characteristic
volatile Latin fire and vigor.
Throughout its entire program the
Fascist organiZa ton performed excel
lently, though a high point probably
was reached in its f1amboyant and
spirited rendition of Rossini'S beloved
William Tell Overture" Opening
with a group of symphonic march Sc
lections, the band then took up the
surging power of the overture to Il
Maestri Cantori," by Wagner, revert
ing from this with graceful versa
tility to the first mellow notes of the
grand fantasy, Verdi's 'Rigoletto." :"
After the Rossini overture, the group
played the first movement of Shubert's
Unfinished Symphony" following it
with the brilliant and dashing Dance
Of the Hours" by Ponchielli. Here
the woodwinds shone, which in this
musical organization take the place
of the singing strings of the SYM
phony orchestra. The band concluded
triumphantly with a stirring rendi-
ton of the magnificent rise of
Tschaikovsky's 1872 Overture"
Cav. Valenti led the group with a
masterful technique which brought
out the best in each of his rs talented
musicians, making the concert well
worth while, and demonstrating plainly
why these gentlemen who formed a
hometown band" have become
"Mussolini's favorite musicians -
