To the Editor, Times-Advocate Someone should publicly express a word of appreciation of Exeter’s new band as it approaches its first annivesary. It deserves everyone is saying so privately. Per haps I may be permitted to voice that sentiment through your widely distributed paper. Those wrho were fortunate enough to hear the band’s program on Sun day evening at Leavitt’s Theatre must have been thrilled with its ex cellence and surprised that a group composed of so many novices should have become so proficient in less than a year. Many of those pres ent on Sunday evening also attend ed the opening presentation of the band last spring and none of the®e could have failed to note the won derful improvement in individual tone effects as well a® in ensemble production. The improved artistry displayed in the handling of the beautiful minuets and serenades which were rendered, requiring del icate shadings, was particularly note worthy. A splendid contribution to the program was a group of the grandest old hymns in Christendom and the suggestion comes quite nat urally that the Conductor might well utilize in future concerts, the well known vocal ability in his band, to lead the community singing of some of these numbers. He might also intersperse his program with special number® from soloists both vocal and instrumental. Everyone will wish that such enjoyable pro grams as that of Sunday evening may be provided regularly through out the winter. Exeter and com munity are proud of their new band and will welcome every opportunity to give it moral as well as finan- cia support. J. G.
