ROYAL Air Force Band Hailed
In First Public Concert Here

Comdr. O'Donnell's leadership of the
Royal Air Force March Past" The
march by Sir Walford Davies, first
musical director of the Royal Air
Force, has been used by the band
ever since it was written, during the
First World War.
The plan of the program gave
equal prominence to the military
band and the symphony orchestra
as separate units and combined
them to forceful effect in several
numbers. The leaders choice of Sc
lections included only four by Brit
ish composers, the others being
Russian and Czech, with the ban
ished Offenbach and the universal
Bach also given recognition.
The quality of sound which these
experienced musicians produce is
somewhat different from that of
similar American groups with a
basic solidity and fullness of tone
that can achieve stirring climatic
effects. There is also a freedom
and alertness about their perform
ance that is felt with equal potency
throughout the various sections.
The strings have pure, sonorous
tone that matches well in ensemble
the splendid richness of the brass
and the lovely timbre of the wood
winds. Their pliability in emotional
expression was well demonstrated in
the "Elegy" and "Waltz"- from
Tschaikowsky's "Serenade in c."
