Read What the New Zealand Press Says:— / Dominion, Wellington (reporting op ening performance in Grand Opera House, Wellington):—“There is no mistaking the impression created at the Opera House last evening. The quality of the Band’s performance will earn respect wherever there are lovers of music, “The Band has a notably fine tone, free from any suspicion of blatancy, and never any faults from overblowing. The degrees of modulation were beautifully marked, and the ensemble playing most stimulating. “The Band is rich in brilliant soloists. Mr Arthur Stender exhibited brilliant executive and tonal power in his solos. Mr Harold Reid, the skilled xylophonist, played ‘Coaxing the Piano,’ accompanied by the Band, and for his encore was even more subtly artistic in his rendition of ‘The Last Rose of Summer,’ played with four muted hammers (two in each hand). In response to a further encore, as an exhibition of Mr Reid’s sense of touch, he played a lively solo, blindfolded, accompanied by the Band.” “HUGE AUDIENCE THRILLS TO MUSIC* “HUGE AUDIENCE THRILLS TO MUSIC* “HUGE AUDIENCE THRILLS TO MUSIC” “Thousands flocked to hear this Wonderful Band.”—-Vide Christchurch Press, Star, Times, Sun.
