The Alleghenian' announced to appear
at the Victoria Hall next Tuesday even
ing Deo. 4th, have recently returned
from a very successful tour of 11 years
in Europe. The troupe comes to us with
the highest praute from the European
press aa well as an unequivocal endorse -
meat from the American press both be-
fore they left and since they returned.
As vocalists they delight their audience
wherever they appear, and as ball -play
on they have no superiors. Our ex-
changes speak in a positive endorsement,
as will be seen b7 the following from the
Montreal "Star' of Sept. 4th :-
Tht entertainment given l y the Alle-
ghanians hat evening in the Queen's
Hall afforded great pleasure to the fash-
ionable audience which had assembled
therein to greet these charming vocalists
and bell players. Their concerts are al-
ways popular, and they offer a splendid
programme, consisting of an interesting
selection of vocal quartets, duets, sings
and ballads. The principal feature of
the entertainment is, howe*R, their
ntarvellous performances oma magnificent
peal of 120 Swiss bells. The music
evoked from these is rich,sweet and pure.
It is listened to with great fascination. ' -
The bells are of all sizes, varying from •
foot down, and are spread over a long
table. The players handle these bells
as if they were simply running their
fingers over the key-koard of a piano, al-
thottyh evory 'note had to be produced
by picking up a bell, ringing it and put-
ting it down again, to grab another with
lightning rapidity. The artists executed
some well-known airs, such as "Horne,
Sweet Horne," with extraordinary fideli-
ty and expression. In the moat rapid
and intricate passages not a note is miss-
ed : every semitone, Sat or sharp, or ac-
cidental, u correctly taken. The vocal
part of the program gave satisfaction,
and the various members were well re-
ceived. The performance, en the whole,
was a genuine rare musical treat, and
was enj. ye.l by the audience.
