guitar or muriel kubys marimba silence that the poet speaks ofwhen the cares that infest the day shall fold their tents like the arabs and as silently steal away the band to one musicloving listener the band of arcadee is better than any other this is mere opinion of course and comparisons in music are endless and mostly useless but the music made by this band is different from any band he hears the difference is the sum of tiny musical details that are part and parcel of arcadees na tural loveliness it is nearly ten years ago since one of the greatest british bandmasters told this llstentea- that the band of arcadee had a character all its own the same thing can be said today with equal truth there was a hand lestivai recently in which the band of arcadee took part a good deal- of the celebration was competitive as most musical festivals nowadays are arcadee band was winner in its particular class this of course gave great delight to pilgrims from arcadee and the victory was popular in the widest sense the evening tattoo opened with march past of bands taking part the days festival it was led by uie band of arcadee it doesnt matter in the least where this festival was held it is an annual event renowned throughout canada neither does it serve any useful purpose to name this that or the other band heard on this occasion just as one mans meat is another mans poison so is one mans musical delight another mans abomination musical temperments are sensitive as tnt and atomic or cosmic in their power its music the music of arcadee band on the march was true sure and beauti ful the players swung along playing john peel with a gusto that gave the familiar old tune the heartiness of a dearly loved school song full to 1 the brim of memories too deep for words any amount of grip and po wer was in its cadences and tone was smooh as organ music at its noblest details of light and shade phrase and accent had spontaneity nothing was missed in the makeup of this chal lenging tune here was band music that arrested held attention and aroused recollection without a hint of doubt or cocksure assertlveness mu sic of a band that had characted all- its own ana the music of arcadees band is always like that on the street in the park on the march those char acteristics or truth certainly and beauty are never m lining to watch the players as tlnv marched playing john peel was to be as proud of their deportment as or the music ihey made the majority of the pla yers arc youthful many of them boys m their teens it was inevitable that the music- lover should try

protests it may be said that the band movement draws its very breath of life from competitive festivals this may be true enough but it is lso possible that the breath of life drawn that way is spasmodic irregular and unhealthy some of us are hoping that one of these days a test piece of nothing but the simplest of scale passages cbordal progressions and rhythmic variants of tr in such will
