September 1, 1928 WINNETKA TALK Sousa to Bring His Famous Marches to Evanston Sept. 22 The stirring marches of "Sousa's band," which are American institutions, make up a part of the concert pro- grams which the famous band will play in Evanston the afternoon and evening of Saturday, Sept. 22. Under auspices of the League of | Women Voters and the Associate | Alumnae of Northwestern university, Sousa and his band will play at North- western university gymnasium. Weeks of careful preparation have preceded the concert date. Prices will be as reasonable as possible to enable all lovers of good music to hear the con- certs. While Lt. Com. John Philip Sousa is perhaps best known for his marches, particularly his "Stars and Stripes Forever," which all America hums, whistles and plays, the "March King" has been a producer of other musical compositions. In the course of the three score years that he has been in the music "game," he has written more than 100 marches; but he has also written 62 songs, 10 light operas, 2 overtures, 6 waltzes, 11 fantasies and 15 miscellaneous pieces.
