THE WIRELESS MILITARY
BAND
Conducted by B. WALTON O'DONNELL
EVEN in its original form as a pianoforte piece, the piece by the Russian composer Liadov contrives to give an excellent imitation of an old musical toy-a musical snuff-box which produced little tinkling tunes. In this arrangement, the Glockenspiel and otherdolicate-toned instruments of the band have even less difficulty in bringing off the same illusion. Apart, however, from its interest as- an imitation, it is a charming little piece, dainty and melodious.
