MAURICE COLE (Pianoforte)
THE WIRELESS MILITARY Band
Conducted by B. WALTON O'DONNELL
ALTHOUGH all the music which the band is to play in this programme was written originally for concert orchestra, it all lends itself well to performance by a Military Band.
The Mozart Overture, bubbling over with his inimitable gaiety and good spirits, is already familiar in that form, but the accompaniment of a pianoforte concerto by Military Band is still something of a novelty, although this one has already been played.
The beginning of Stanford's First Irish Rhapsody has a really martial flavour even when played on the orchestra. The first of its tunes is taken from an old Irish war song. The other tune, as listeners know, is that beautiful air which has so many names, but which is probably best known as ' The Londonderry Air.'
The chief interest for the ordinary listener in the two extracts from the ' Rose Cavalier,' is in discovering how well Richard Strauss can write thoroughly popular, good-going waltz and other tunes.
